Working with Default Metadata

Default is a special metadata set that is automatically associated with every File Object when it is created, copied, uploaded, etc.

For already existing File Objects it will be associated when the file or folder is accessed for the first time.
Exactly one Default Set exists in FileCloud - it cannot be deleted, but administrators can customize attributes and permissions or disable it.
Out of the box it is shipped with a single predefined attribute of Array type - Tags.

The following attributes can be edited in the DEFAULT metadata set:

	Description	Options
