Values (default value in bold)

Description

Name

Implied

Only used for internal purposes by InDesign Connector.

SitecoreID

Implied

The SitecoreID attribute is used to identify each page object (TextFrame, ImageFrame, etc) with a corresponding Sitecore item. The SitecoreID attribute contains the ID value of that specific item. Each page object item created with the InDesign Connector is related to a Sitecore item.

When you use a script to create a page object (TextFrame, ImageFrame, etc), you should add the SitecoreID attribute and use a default value (e.g. null) to make the InDesign Connector identify this item.
