You can create the JSON preset from the Web Editor:
In the Repository panel, open the DITA map file in Map View, then in the Output tab, select the + icon to create an output preset, and then select JSON from the type drop-down in the Add preset dialog.
In the Web editor, the following configurations have been organized under the General tab:
Output Path
Index File
Apply Conditions Using (If the conditions are defined for a map)
The following options are available for the JSON preset:
NOTE
You can also edit the JSON file in the Web Editor.
JSON options
Description
Output Path
The path within your AEM repository where the JSON output is stored.
Index File
You can give a name for the index file you’re creating for the JSON output. By default, it picks the DITA map’s file name and adds a suffix (like map_filename_index.json).
* None applied: Select this option if you do not want to apply any condition on the published output. * DITAVAL file: Select DITAVAL file(s) to generate personalized content. You can select multiple DITAVAL files using the browse dialog or by typing file path. Use the cross icon near the file name to remove it. DITAVAL files are evaluated in the order specified, so the conditions specified in the first file take precedence over the matching conditions specified in later files. You can maintain the file order by adding or deleting files. If the DITAVAL file is moved to some other location or is deleted, it is not automatically deleted from the map dashboard. You need to update the location in case files are moved or deleted. You can hover over the file name to see the path in the AEM repository where the file is stored. You can only select DITAVAL files and an error is displayed if you have selected any other file type. * Condition preset: Select a condition preset from the drop-down to apply a condition while publishing the output. The option is visible if you have added a condition present in the Condition Presets tab of the DITA map console. To know more about condition preset, see Use condition presets.
Use Baseline
If you have created a Baseline for the selected DITA map, select this option to specify the version that you want to publish.
Select this option to download the temporary files generated by DITA-OT. The location where DITA-OT stores temporary files can be found in the output generation log. If you are experiencing errors while generating output through DITA-OT, select this option to retain the temporary files. You can then use those files to troubleshoot output generation errors.
After generating the output, select the Download temporary files icon to download the ZIP folder containing the temporary files.
Note: If you select some file properties and then download the temporary files, you also get the metadata.xml file in the ZIP folder.
Properties to Propagate in the Output
Select the properties that you want to process as metadata. These properties are set from the Properties page of the DITA map or bookmap file. The properties that you select from the drop-down list are listed below the Properties field.
Note: You can also define custom properties and pass on the metadata to the output using DITA-OT publishing. For more details see, Work with metadata.
Post Generation Workflow
When you choose this option, a new Post Generation Workflow drop-down list is displayed containing all workflows configured in AEM. You must select a workflow that you want to execute after completion of the output generation workflow.
Note: For more information about creating a custom post-output generation workflow, see Customize post-output generation workflow in the Install and configure Adobe Experience Manager Guides as a Cloud Service guide.
