Creating Records

While the Independent Media Items (IMI) do not rely on structured data records, items in a collection do. In order for a media item to display in the LUNA Viewer the item has to be checked for display AND must be linked to a record. You'll know an item or record is checked for display if it has a green mark in the upper right corner. This is done in the Record Editor and Media Item Editor but can also be done automatically by applying the correct settings in the LUNA Library Uploader.

Records can be imported via the LUNA Library Uploader but they can also be created in the LUNA Library using the "New Record" button. When you select "New Record" a blank record is created with the data fields from the schema you selected when you first built the collection. After you create a new record you can link media items to it in the Media Item Linking tab from the Record Editor.

Unlinked records appear in the LUNA Library as blue thumbnails.
