Digital assets check-in on products – updates not overwriting existing assets

Hi guys,

We’ve configured the scheduled task “Digital assets check-in on products”, and it seems to be running fine.

What I’m seeing though: Dynamicweb only adds missing assets, but it doesn’t overwrite/update existing assets already linked to products.

I also noticed the scheduled task “Cleanup missing digital assets (add-in)”, but I don’t think that solves our case. That task seems to focus on values/assets that no longer exist, while in our scenario we keep using the same naming and want existing assets to be refreshed/updated.

So my questions:

  • Is it expected that “Digital assets check-in on products” never overwrites existing assets?

  • If we want to refresh/replace existing product assets (same naming), is there another scheduled task/add-in we should run?

  • Or is there a configuration/setting that enables updating existing assets?

Thanks in advance! 
Kr, 
Ferri

Hello Ferri,

- assets added manually are never modified or removed by "Digital assets check-in on products" or "Cleanup missing digital assets".  Only assets added by "Digital assets check-in on products" will be removed by "Cleanup missing digital assets" once the assets no longer exsist in ASSETS.
