Match strategy examples
The following examples illustrate use cases of the different match strategies.
In the following examples, France and Germany are subsets of Europe which is in turn a subset of World, and Social is a subset of Digital but Traditional is not.
Any
This example uses the following rights profiles with an Any match strategy:
|
Start |
End |
Territories |
Media |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Sep 14, 2020 12:00 AM |
May 1, 2021 12:00 AM |
World |
Social |
|
May 5, 2020 12:00 AM |
Jan 1, 2021 12:00 AM |
Europe |
Digital |
If you try to download an associated asset with the following intended use:
-
Start date: May 8, 2020
-
End date: December 31, 2020
-
Territory: France
-
Media: Digital
The intended use matches the second rights profile, but not the first; however, since the Any match strategy only requires one of the rights profiles to be satisfied, the download is permitted.
If you try to download an associated asset with the following intended use:
-
Start date: September 8, 2020
-
End date: December 31, 2020
-
Territory: France
-
Media: Traditional
This time, the intended use does not match either of the rights profiles, so the download is denied.
All
This example uses the following rights profiles with an All match strategy:
|
Start |
End |
Territories |
Media |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Sep 7, 2020 12:00 AM |
Dec 31, 2020 11:55 PM |
World |
Social |
|
May 5, 2020 12:00 AM |
May 21, 2021 11:55 PM |
France |
Digital |
If you try to download an associated asset with the following intended use:
-
Start date: September 8, 2020
-
End date: October 31, 2020
-
Territory: France
-
Media: Social
The intended use matches both rights profiles; because the All match strategy requires all rights profiles to be satisfied, the download is permitted.
If you try to download an associated asset with the following intended use:
-
Start date: December 1, 2020
-
End date: December 29, 2020
-
Territory: Europe
-
Media: Digital
This time, the intended use does not match the second rights profile, so the download is denied.
Subject-based
This example uses the following rights profiles with a subject-based match strategy:
|
Start |
End |
Territories |
Media |
Subject |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Jan 1, 2020 12:00 AM |
Dec 31, 2020 11:55 PM |
France and Germany |
Digital |
Subject A |
|
Aug 1, 2020 12:00 AM |
Dec 31, 2021 11:55 PM |
France |
Digital |
Subject B |
With this strategy, the usage rights associated with each subject are combined and an optimized rights profile is calculated that satisfies both. This means that the asset can only be downloaded where the rights overlap (in terms of date, territory, and media). In other words, the asset can only be used between August 2020 and December 2020, in France, for digital media.
If you try to download an associated asset with the following intended use:
-
Start date: August 1, 2020
-
End date: December 31, 2020
-
Territory: France
-
Media: Digital
The intended use matches the optimized rights profile, so the download is permitted.
If you try to download an associated asset with the following intended use:
-
Start date: May 4, 2020
-
End date: December 31, 2020
-
Territory: France
-
Media: Digital
This time, the intended use does not match the optimized rights profile, so the download is denied.
