Terms of use

The terms of use provide usage requirements and guidelines that a Data User must accept to use the data. Use the Marketplace - Terms of Use Template.xlsx file or upload your own Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to create Terms of Use in Data Marketplace.

Prerequisites

Before you can create terms of use, verify one of the following prerequisites:

Column description

The following table describes the fields in the Marketplace - Terms of Use Template.xlsx file and the values that you can enter:
Field
Description
Example
Reference ID
Enter a reference identifier for the terms of use.
Field Type: Free text; optional
Guidelines: If you don't specify a reference identifier, Data Marketplace automatically assigns a unique value to the object.
If you want to specify a reference identifier, enter a unique alphabetical, numeric or alphanumeric value. You can also use special characters when you enter a reference identifier value. Ensure that the value that you enter doesn’t use a prefix value that is configured in Metadata Command Center.
For more information about reference IDs, see the Manage reference IDs of objects topic in the Set Up Data Marketplace help.
You can specify TUse01 or TU-1 as the reference ID of a terms of use. However, if TOU- is a reference ID prefix that is configured in your Metadata Command Center, you cannot use TOU-1.
Name
Enter a name for the terms of use.
Field Type: Free text; required
Guidelines: The terms of use names should clearly indicate the terms and conditions that they represent.

Description
Enter a description for the terms of use.
Field Type: Free text; required
Guidelines: Explain the nature of the terms of use, so that a stakeholder of a data collection can determine whether it meets their requirements.
If you use a CSV file to upload terms of use, do not enter commas in the description. Commas are used as column separators. Consider rephrasing the description to avoid commas.

Your administrator defines the terms of use types in Metadata Command Center. For more information about terms of use, see the Terms of use topic in the Set Up Data Marketplace help.

Status
Specify a status for the terms of use. The status determines whether a terms of use is available to be added to a data collection.

  • - To make the terms of use unavailable to be added to a data collection, set the status to DISABLED.
