Attribute Assignment to Templates

Configuring metadata templates involves defining in which menu and section the metadata attributes previously defined in the Attribute Definitions table will be displayed.

The Template Attribute Table in the Configuration Panel (Administrator View)

The association of metadata to sections is managed in the Template Attribute table and allows building the dynamic forms for each subtype of entity or relationship in the metamodel.

Structure of the Template Attribute table

Each template attribute record is characterized by the following fields:

• Id: unique identifier of the template attribute.

  • It is assigned automatically from the Configuration Panel.

• active: flag indicating whether the attribute is active in the object's template.

  • If active = true, the attribute is displayed and editable (if the user has permissions).

  • If active = false, the attribute is no longer available in the Data Portal. Objects that previously had it populated will retain the value, but it will be invisible and non-editable.

  • If it is subsequently re-activated, it will reappear in the form with the previously saved value.

  • ⚠️ Exception: in the ADHERENCE template, metadata attributes must always be false because the template for this object is not visible.

• isVisible: flag indicating whether the attribute is shown in the Structure table on the dataset screen. (Only applies to the DATASET FIELD template). Does not affect visibility in the metadata template.

  • For attributes of the DATASET_FIELD template → apply true (to make it visible) or false (to hide it) as appropriate.

  • For ADHERENCE attributes → always false.

  • For any other template → always true.

• sort: display order of the attribute within the section it belongs to (1, 2, 3, …).

• attributeDefinitions: reference to the attribute defined in the attribute Definitions table that will be included in the template.

• section: section in which the attribute is grouped within the form.

  • Corresponds to a value from the Sections table.

Adding an attribute to an object's template via the Template Attributes table

Adding new attributes to a template is done from the Configuration Panel, in the Template Attributes table.

1. Click the New button in the upper right corner. This will open a wizard with the fields defined in the Structure of the Template Attributes table section.

2. Complete the fields according to the structure described:

   • sort: position the attribute will occupy within the section (e.g., 1).

   • atributeDefinition: select the attribute to be added to the template (e.g., 10321-nivelRiesgo-SELECT).

   • section: select the section in which the attribute will be displayed (e.g., 1031-RIESGOS-AI_MODEL).

   • active: check if you want the attribute to be enabled in the template.

   • isVisible: check as appropriate (see rules above).

3. Click Save to save or Cancel to discard.

Modifying an attribute in an object's template via the Template Attributes table

Modifying an attribute already assigned to a template is managed from the Template Attributes table in the Configuration Panel. This operation must be performed with caution, as it can have an impact on the display and editing of metadata in the Data Portal.

Fields that can be modified:

• sort: allows changing the display order of the attribute within the section.

• active: allows activating or deactivating (logical deletion) an attribute from the template at any time.

  • If deactivated (false), the attribute is no longer available in the template, although the value previously assigned to it is retained in the database.

  • If activated (true), the attribute would display the value that was assigned to it prior to deactivation.

• isVisible: can be freely modified.

  • If checked in the DATASET_FIELDS template, the attribute will be visible in the Structure tab of the Data Portal. In any other template, this would be a configuration error.

  • If unchecked in the DATASET_FIELDS template, the attribute will no longer be visible in the Structure tab of the Data Portal.

• section: can be modified as long as it is a section that belongs to the same object subtype. It must never be changed between sections of different objects.

Fields that cannot be modified if governed assets exist:

• atributeDefinition: once the record is created, it cannot be replaced by another attribute.

Modification procedure:

1. Click the edit button on the row of the attribute to be modified.

2. Adjust the permitted fields (sort, active, isVisible or section).

3. Click Save to save the changes or Cancel to discard them.

Assigning attributes to templates via direct database access (Developer View)

The assignment of attributes to templates is stored in the anjana.template_attribute table.

Below is an example script for adding the risk level to an AI System template:

INSERT INTO anjana.template_attribute
(id_template_attribute, active, is_visible, sort, id_attribute_definition, id_section)
VALUES(10371, true, true, 1, 10321, 1031);
