Mapping Index > Attributes with no physical file mappings
The attributes_with_no_physical_file_mappings parameter in our application specifies attributes that will not sync physical files, but only the URL of the derivative or the mapped derivatives.
The attributes_with_no_physical_file_mappings parameter allows users to exclude certain attributes from syncing physical files during the asset synchronization process. Instead, only the URL of the derivative or the mapped derivatives associated with these attributes will be synced, optimizing storage and bandwidth usage.
Users can list attributes within the attributes_with_no_physical_file_mappings parameter to specify which attributes should not sync physical files. This configuration ensures that only the URL of the derivative or the mapped derivatives associated with these attributes are synced during the asset synchronization process.
attributes_with_no_physical_file_mappings:
- "thumbnail"
- "preview_image"
- "high_res_image"
