By using a tag called “Expiration date”, images can be set to expire from the Synthrone tool at a chosen date.
Few things to consider:
- When a tag expires, the tag label will change its color to red, informing user that the image should be deleted.
- When a tag expires or is deleted, the image is not removed from the tool or database.
-
There is no central mechanism for the Synthrone Admin to gather information and act on product cards or specific folders with images.
It is up to the users of the tool to manage the expiration and ultimate deletion of their images. - The tags can be viewed and modified in the details panel of an image, found by right-clicking on the image.
Images set to expire from the Synthrone tool at a chosen date using a tag called “Expiration date” will show three different stages:
- WHITE LABEL – image expires in more than 14 days
- ORANGE LABEL – image expires in less than 14 day
- RED LABEL – image expired
Setting an expiry date
Tag expiration can be set in three different ways:
- By setting the expiration date at an image level during the product card edition in Synthrone Crafter.
- By setting the expiration date at the image level in Synthrone Browser.
- By setting the expiration date at the folder level in Synthrone Browser. The date will propagate to all the images store inside the folder.
