Publish a project component with tokens

You can use characters reserved for XPath and system variables in the publishing job Name. This lets you pull in data so you don't have to type it in every time you send the project component out for publishing.

Tips and tricks

  • If you don't see the Publish option, contact your administrator. An Inspire administrator can define whether the Publish action is available at the user and role level.
  • If you have changed the defaults and want to see publishing notifications, make sure you configure them before publishing. Follow the steps in Set notification preferences for publishing.
  • Tokens can also be used in a publishing profile. For help using tokens in a publishing profile, follow the steps in Publish from a profile with tokens.
  • Examples of ways you can use a token in the job's Publish Name field:

    • To add the name of the MyMap component, use {$componentname}

      Example Publish Name = MyMap

    • To add the topic title of the MyMap component, use {$title}

      Example Publish Name = UserManual

    • To add the file name of the MyMap component, use {$filename}

      Example Publish Name = MyMap_ceb80930-0712-48d2-92a5-9c2ee7d2ff7d.xml

    • To add the current date and time to the job name for MyMap, use {$datetime}

      Example Publish Name = MyMap2024-04-30-111017

    • To add the name of the user who created the publishing job for MyMap, use{$username}

      Example Publish Name = MyMapjanedoe@mycompany.org

    • To add the code for the language used in the component MyMap, use {$langcode}

      Example Publish Name = MyMapen-US

    • To add the name of the language used in the component MyMap, use {$langname}

      Example Publish Name = MyMapEnglish

    • If you need a system variable that isn't in the list of examples, contact your Inspire support representative.
