After uploading or analyzing the performance of a video, you may decide to make a video more interesting to your viewers by editing the metadata for the video. Metadata is descriptive information about a specific media asset, such as description, tags, and publish date.

Edit video metadata

Follow these steps to edit metadata fields for a media asset in your library:

From your Media Library, click the name of a video. The details page of the video appears.
On the Basic Information tab, update one or more metadata sections or fields.
On the Advanced Settings tab, configure one or more media settings.
On the Translations tab, add one or more translations for your content metadata.
Click Save.

Basic Information

Section	Description
Title*	(Required) Name of the media item The Title field allows you to create an enticing, accurate name that engages your viewers and is optimized for search (under 60 characters with highly searched keywords). By default, JWP uses the video filename. Special characters are removed from the filename.
Description	Short explanation of the video content This text can improve search engine optimization and video recommendations. To prevent having a description shortened in search engine results, limit descriptions to less than 100 characters.
Tags	User-generated labels used to classify a video You can add tags as single tags or as a comma-separated list: Single Tag - Click Single tag, enter the tag, and click Add. Multiple Tags - Click Multiple Tags, enter a comma-separated list of tags, and click Add. NOTE: You can also bulk manage tags using the Manage Tags feature in your library. Tags are case-sensitive, and ending whitespaces are removed. Tags can be used in several ways: Searching and filtering content within the dashboard or API Creating dynamic playlists Creating rules for Recommendations playlists
Content Type	Type of media based on shared custom parameters Customers with app config access can use content types to classify media by categories with common fields, such as movies, episodes, and live events. For more information, learn how to add a content type.
Custom Parameters	User-generated name-value pairs As examples, custom fields can be used when setting cue points or storing legacy media IDs. You can also set default custom parameters that are applied to all new videos uploaded through your JWP dashboard.
