CMP items in the Content Editor
The Sitecore Content Marketing Platform (CMP) connector writes Sitecore Content Hub items into Sitecore and stores them in the Master database in a default folder named CMP.
The CMP content items
The parent item that contains the preconfigured item buckets is located in /sitecore/content/CMP. Every bucket keeps items linked to a content type in the Sitecore Content Hub. For example, buckets for Blogs and Tweets:
To create a new bucket:
-
Navigate to /sitecore/templates/Branches/CMP, right-click Buckets, click Insert, and click Bucket.
The CMP configuration items
The configuration items that contain all necessary connection strings and mapping details are located in /sitecore/system/Modules/CMP/Config.
The CMP templates
To make the CMP configuration easier, branch templates are available in /sitecore/templates/Branches/CMP:
The branch templates let you create item buckets and entity mappings.
The CMP templates are located in /sitecore/templates/CMP and contain the following:
-
Config root - for the config item.
-
Entity Mapping - to be able to sync entities of a given content type, you need an Entity Mapping item.
-
Field Mapping - contains the name of the field in the entity and the name of the field in Sitecore item.
-
Content Hub Entity - each content item template created for the connector, must inherit from this template. It mixes in the
EntityIdentifierfield and in this way the connector can match entities to Sitecore items.
You can also create your own templates to create items from entities. The only requirement is that the templates inherit from the Content Hub Entity template:
