Settings
Under Settings, you set up CONTXT for your institution. Which areas you can edit depends on your role. Change fields and terms that everyone uses only after agreeing with the person responsible for CONTXT at your institution.
Find the right setting
| Area | What you manage there |
|---|---|
| General | Your institution's name, contact details and languages. |
| Team & access | Staff, invitations and roles. See Roles & access. |
| Account | Your display name and your language. See Account & language. |
| Collections | Your institution's collections, to which you assign objects. |
| Locations and Geographic places | Where objects are kept, such as storage and shelf, as well as geographic places. |
| Fields, Objects, People, Organisations | Which information exists and how the cataloging view is laid out. |
| Vocabulary and Numbering | Terms that everyone uses, and types of identifiers, such as inventory numbers. |
| Integrations and Domains & addresses | Connections to other services and the web addresses where your audience finds your offerings. |
Change your institution's details
- Open Settings → General.
- Change the details, for example the institution's name or the contact address.
- Save the section you changed and read the message that appears afterwards.
If you can't edit something, ask the person who manages access at your institution.
When you need the settings
You catalog objects and assign them to a collection under Objects. You need the settings only if you want to change the shared basics for this. The Assistant works with the fields and terms that already exist. You set up fields, access rights and channels yourself in the respective area.
