How to use Involv page properties

Page properties in Involv allow you to add structured metadata to pages — such as department, job title, date of publication, or event start date — which can be used for filtering, layout automation, search results, and personalized content delivery.

 

💡 What Are Page Properties?

Involv Page Properties are used to:

  • Enrich pages with metadata.

  • Dynamically group or filter content (e.g. by category, date, or department).

  • Surface information in sliders, events, news, and personalized components.

These properties are mapped to SharePoint fields or refinable fields (e.g., RefinableDate00, ows_InvolvDepartment, etc.).

🛠️ Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Add the Component

  • Click the “+” button on your page to add a new component.

  • Search for and add “Involv Page Properties”.

2. Edit the Page Properties

Once the component is added:

  • Click on “Edit properties” to begin configuring the metadata.

3. Set Up the Field Mapping

In the configuration panel:

  • Define the properties to display using the proper internal mapping values.

  • Example format:

    ruby
    CopyEdit
    Department:ows_InvolvDepartment
    Job Title:ows_InvolvJobTitle

🔁 Common Page Property Mappings

4. Finalize

✅ Congratulations! You’ve successfully configured the Involv Page Properties component.

📌 Tip for Editors

  • Double-check your internal mappings using your site’s Search Schema or metadata documentation.

  • You can combine both custom metadata (like ows_ fields) and Microsoft Graph fields (like People:SPS-Birthday) as long as they're indexed.
