Replacement String properties

When adding or editing Replacement Strings in a Granta MI database, you can set the following properties.

Name

Maximum 255 characters. Note that if you change the name of an existing Replacement String, the name will not be updated anywhere where the original name is already referenced in existing data values.

Value

A string that includes some/all elements of a URL (for example, protocol and host, plus path...). To include Attribute placeholders within the string, for example, in the path, under Insert placeholder, select a table and then double-click the Attribute name in the list.
