What Was Built

1. Backend Components

FilenameParser (src/FilenameParser.php)

  • Parses V2 naming convention filenames
  • Validates all 10 components
  • Strips OMG Job Number and Tracking ID
  • Test Suite: 8/8 tests passing

V2 Convention:

[OMG_JOB]_[BRAND]_[COUNTRY]_[LANG]_[TITLE]_[TYPE]_[VERSION]_[SEC]S_[RATIO]_[TRACKING]
Example: 1234567_RAF_DE_de_TEST-JOB_OLV_001_6S_16x9_BJP4ho.mp4
Strips to: RAF_DE_de_TEST-JOB_OLV_001_6S_16x9.mp4

MetadataMerger (src/MetadataMerger.php)

  • Merges master metadata + filename data
  • Filename always wins (as specified)
  • Identifies editable vs locked fields
  • Builds proper asset representation for DAM

BoxFileRetriever (src/BoxFileRetriever.php)

  • Lists files from Box folders
  • Downloads files to temp
  • Extracts tracking IDs
  • JWT authentication (production-ready)

2. Frontend Interface

New Tab: 📦 Upload from Box

Location: workflow_v3.php - 4th tab

Features:

  • Box Folder ID input
  • File list with validation indicators
  • Tracking ID display
  • Clean filename preview
  • Select/deselect files

  6. Strip OMG Job Number & Tracking ID
  7. Rename temp file to clean filename
  8. Upload to DAM with AssetUploaderSimple
  9. Clean up temp files
  10. Return detailed results

4. Additional Features

Final Assets Viewing

Complete Workflow Example

Starting Point: Master Asset in Box

Box Folder: Campaign folder (e.g., C000000078_Campaign_Name)

Files:

1234567_RAF_DE_de_TEST-JOB_OLV_001_6S_16x9_BJP4ho.mp4

Step-by-Step Execution

1. Download Master Assets (A1→A2)

- User selects campaign with status A1
- Downloads master assets
- Uploads to Box with tracking ID (BJP4ho)
- Stores in PostgreSQL with upload_directory
- Updates status to A2

2. Agency Processes Files

- Agency downloads from Box
- Creates V2 filenames with tracking ID
- Processes/localizes assets
- Uploads back to Box folder

3. Upload from Box (A2→A3)

- User enters Box Folder ID
- System lists files
- Validates V2 filenames
- User selects valid files
- System:
  ✓ Downloads from Box
  ✓ Loads master metadata (BJP4ho)
  ✓ Merges metadata
  ✓ Strips to: RAF_DE_de_TEST-JOB_OLV_001_6S_16x9.mp4
  ✓ Uploads to DAM Final Assets folder
  ✓ Returns Asset ID: 214811

4. Verify Upload

- Click 'Get Final Assets' button
- See uploaded asset: RAF_DE_de_TEST-JOB_OLV_001_6S_16x9.mp4
- View metadata (complete with merged fields)
- Confirm upload success

Technical Architecture

Data Flow

Box Folder (Campaign Files)
    ↓
BoxFileRetriever.listFilesWithTrackingIDs()
    ↓
FilenameParser.parseFilename() → Validate V2 convention
    ↓
Database Query → Load master metadata by tracking ID
    ↓
MetadataMerger.mergeMetadata() → Filename wins
    ↓
FilenameParser.stripUploadComponents() → Remove Job# & Tracking ID
    ↓
BoxFileRetriever.downloadFile() → Download to temp
    ↓
MetadataMerger.buildAssetRepresentation() → Create API JSON
    ↓
AssetUploaderSimple.uploadWithMetadata() → Upload to DAM
    ↓
DAM Final Assets Folder (Asset ID: 214811)

Database Integration

Query Pattern:

SELECT tracking_id, opentext_id, upload_directory, description,
       brand_code, country_code, language_code, asset_type
FROM master_assets
WHERE tracking_id = 'BJP4ho' AND status = 'active'

Metadata Extraction:

Description field contains:
"Box File ID: xxx
Box URL: xxx
DAM Asset ID: xxx

DAM Metadata JSON:
{full metadata structure}"

Extract JSON after "DAM Metadata JSON:" marker

API Endpoints

Box API

GET /folders/{id}/items - List files
GET /files/{id}/content - Download file

DAM API

POST /v6/assets - Upload with metadata
GET /v6/folders/{id}/children - List final assets

Prerequisites for Use

Required Setup

PostgreSQL database (port 5433) Box JWT authentication configured DAM OAuth credentials Master assets stored with tracking IDs Upload directories populated

  • Security policy 1594
  • Target folder accessible

Known Limitations

Current Scope

  • Manual Box Folder ID entry (as designed for MVP)

  • No metadata editing UI (uses merged data as-is)
  • No campaign status auto-update to A3

Future Enhancements (Optional)

Troubleshooting Guide

Issue: "Invalid filename structure"

Cause: Filename doesn't follow V2 convention Solution: Fix filename to match pattern exactly

Issue: "No master asset found for tracking ID"

Cause: Tracking ID not in database Solution: Download master assets first to populate DB

Issue: "Upload directory not found"

Cause: Master asset missing upload_directory field Solution: Re-download master assets with Final Assets folder found

Issue: "Box download failed"

Cause: JWT token expired or invalid folder ID Solution: Check Box-config.json and folder permissions

Issue: "Upload failed"

Cause: Various (check specific error message) Solutions:

  • Verify OAuth token valid
  • Check upload folder ID correct
  • Ensure metadata structure valid
  • Review PHP error logs

Best Practices

Filename Naming

Always include tracking ID for upload workflow Follow V2 convention exactly (validation is strict) Use OMG Job Number for internal tracking Keep subject title ≤ 15 characters

Workflow Process

  1. Download master assets (A1→A2)
  2. Assets uploaded to Box with tracking IDs
  3. Agency processes and renames using V2 convention
  4. Upload from Box processes and uploads to DAM
  5. Verify in Final Assets folder

Metadata Management

  • Master metadata provides base values
  • Filename components override master data
  • Editable fields: Language, Asset Type, Asset Name
  • Locked fields: All other master metadata
