How to add a custom category property in Kylo?

Question

I want to define some additional property while creating a category in Kylo. For example, a flag kind of thing. If the flag is Y, pass that category to some database as metadata for that category. Is it possible? If yes, please suggest how to do that.

Answer 1

You can assign custom properties to a category.

1. Category creation with custom properties

2. View a category's properties

These properties are searchable via Global search.

When the first feed runs in a new category, a Hive database is created with the category's name. You can check this in Hive via the command:

hive> show databases;
