Last time I wrote about assigning a default value to a M.Content entity. By default this entity type lacks the configuration of a default value. This time, we will take a look at the M.Asset entity. To start with the good news, the M.Asset supports settings default values. It has the functionality that I expected the M.Content to have as well.
So how do we assign a default value to a M.Asset type? I would expect it to be configurable within the schema settings. But when we take a look at the schema, you'll not find such an option. You'll need to dig into the Create page of the entity definition.
Go to the Manage section of your Content Hub instance and click on Pages. This will lead you to the overview of all the available pages within the Content Hub. Then type "Create" in the search, to find the create page of the M.Asset. Once you find it, click on the text. It will open the configuration of the Create page on the right side. By default, we aren't able to make changes to the Creation component. Luckily for us, Sitecore allows us to make changes by toggling the switch. See the appropriate switch in the screenshot below.
