ssaadaoui — Mon, 01 Feb 2021 16:52:00 GMT

I customize a content-metadata-presets and it works perfectly . my problem is: I like to display a json propety of a document like a many properties.

actually I have :

signers:

[{"isInternal":false,"firstName":"Mark","lastName":"jacksson","coordinate":"0,0,595,65","telephone":"","id":"","page":1,"email":"***","username":"","order":2}]

but my goal is to show like:

signers:

isInternal:false

firstName:Mark

lastName:jacksson

coordinate:0,0,595,65

Do you have any solution to resolve this problem.

Thank you

Hi Saadaoui,

Without customizations, you cannot format a JSON string / field in the card viewer.
Infact, if you would go in edit mode, how the JSON string could be edited being formatted?

I see two options here:
1) Design a different strategy for the metadata. As an example you could use some metadata and value them with the content of the JSON while you are filling the JSON itself.

2) Customize the viewer to manage the JSON layout in the field.

I hope this will help.

Thank you for your answer

If I choose to Customize the viewer to manage the JSON layout in the field.

Do you know what is the best methode can i use from an external module (I can't edit file of ACA source direct, I must do it from external module )
