Edit Explorer Navigation View Settings

You can have four navigation views at a maximum for Explorer.

To edit your Explorer navigation view settings:

  1. Download a template of your Explorer settings.

    To download the template:

    1. On the Meridian Portal Landing page, at the bottom of the navigation bar, click the Account Settings icon A gear symbol..

      The Account Settings page appears.

    2. In the menu, click Meridian Power Settings.

      The Meridian Power Settings page appears.

    3. In the upper-right corner of the page, click Templates.

      The download starts.

  2. Extract the downloaded template file and find the ExplorerNavigationViews.json file.

  3. Use a .json editor to edit the content of the file.

    You can change settings such as name, levels, and scopes. We recommend using the internal names from the Meridian Portal mapping to configure your settings. To learn how to download the mapping, see the View Settings procedures in Meridian Power Settings.

    See the following example:

    Copy
    [
      {
        "RepositoryViewInternalId": "MASTERS",
        "Name": "My View 1",
        "PropertyInternalNames": [
          "psFacilityInformation.Region",
          "psFacilityInformation.Plant",
          "psClassification.Discipline",
          "psClassification.DocumentClassificationCode"
        ]
      },
      {
        "RepositoryViewInternalId": "PROJECT",
        "Name": "My View 2",
        "PropertyInternalNames": [
          "psFacilityInformation.Region",
          "psBuildingInformation.Building",
          "psBuildingInformation.Floor",
          "psBuildingInformation.Room"
        ],
        "LogicalOR": false,
        "PropertyFilters": [
          {

          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  4. Save the file.
