What problem does it solve?

This skill provides a focused, reliable way to change the human-readable metadata for an existing NovaDB object type so names and descriptions remain accurate and localized without altering the type's schema or attributes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Targeted Metadata Updates: Change only the name and/or description fields of an object type (typeRef=0) without affecting attributes, forms, or other schema elements.
  • Localization Support: Supply values for specific language and variant combinations (for example English=201, German=202).
  • Safe Patch Workflow: Build a values array with only the fields to change and apply via the novadb_cms_update_objects tool, then verify with a read operation.

Quick Start

Update the name and/or description for object type 123 on branch main by calling novadb_cms_update_objects with typeRef 0 and a values array containing attribute 1000 for names and 1012 for descriptions, including appropriate language and variant entries.
