What if your metadata quality was guaranteed right from publication?
Soon, metadata marked as "required" will actually be enforced at publication time, ensuring better-documented and easier-to-discover datasets.
Complete metadata for more relevant search results 🚀
Being able to make certain metadata mandatory before publication will simplify checks, save time, and improve the portal's reliability.
The payoff: datasets that are easier to find for all your users (humans, AI agents, and other portals via harvesting).
Optimize your metadata before the feature goes live (early September) 📆
👉 Have you set some metadata as "required" in your custom templates? We recommend checking that it's properly filled in across all your data assets ahead of this update.
👉 Don't have time to fill everything in before activation? No worries, metadata currently marked as "required" but left blank on your scheduled datasets will automatically switch to "recommended," so automatic publications won't be blocked.
