Add values to a taxonomy
To configure Content Hub, you must either be a superuser or have the necessary permissions granted to you through user group policies.
A taxonomy contains values that you use to organize content into categories. Taxonomies have their own schema so you can extend them with additional properties, such as synonyms. Synonyms are multi-language string properties used in full-text search. In the following example, a search of the Brand taxonomy for delicious brings up the taxonomy Flavorful because a synonym is defined in the taxonomy value properties.
Synonyms are also useful when you want to account for regional spelling variants (for example, Flavourful).
To apply the changes you make to taxonomy values, clear the datasource cache.
