The Content Discovery process extracts the master and alias tags using pattern matching. During the content discovery process, the file properties are set as document properties.
A reader processes the document attributes and properties of a master file, then converts these properties into relationships and meaningful properties. The type of file determines the reader used for content extraction. Most file types that have pre-processed content files can also be processed in the content discovery phase.
A processed document is related to organizational items and master and alias tags that are extracted from the content file.
