Ivan BrygarLeave a comment

The Sitecore Stream module lets you generate content, extract data from documents and media, translate items, and more. Behind every AI action is a request to the Sitecore Stream Cloud API. Does Sitecore track how many interactions your organization uses? Yes, and in this post, I’ll break down exactly how interaction counting works under the hood.

Ivan Brygar2 Comments

Sitecore has released the new version of Stream for PDXP v.1.7.26.

The release includes:

  1. The new Tree translation feature (PREMIUM):  translate an entire content tree (a parent item and all its descendants) into a target language in a single operation.
  2. Improved behavior for Page Translation (consistent with Tree Translation): security, optimization, etc.
  3. Bug fixes: Addressed various minor issues to enhance overall stability and performance.

Stream Tree Translation

The Tree Translation is a new approach for translating your content and media items, serving as a convenient addition to Item Translation and Page Translation. This feature is available for Premium users performing bulk operations.

To run the Tree Translation, in Content Editor select the item node that you want to translate, then switch to the target language (e.g. Danish) and in the Versions tab click the Stream Translate => Translate Tree

In the next example I show how to use Tree Translation that has 50 items in the selected node.

Sitecore .webp images support

Ivan Brygar1 Comment

The .webp media in Sitecore has been supported since version 10.4. But if you need to add support for lower versions, follow the next steps:

  1. Under the master database add webp items under the next pathes (can be cloned from jpeg item and then adjusted):
/sitecore/templates/System/Media/Unversioned/webP
/sitecore/templates/System/Media/Versioned/webP

2. In Sitecore.config a new media type should be added:

<mediaType name="WEBP image" extensions="webp">
    <mimeType>image/webp</mimeType>
	<forceDownload>false</forceDownload>
	<sharedTemplate>system/media/unversioned/webP</sharedTemplate>
	<versionedTemplate>system/media/versioned/webP</versionedTemplate>
	<mediaValidator type="Sitecore.Resources.Media.ImageValidator" />
	<thumbnails>
	    <generator type="Sitecore.Resources.Media.ImageThumbnailGenerator, Sitecore.Kernel">
	        <extension>png</extension>
	    </generator>
	    <width>150</width>
	    <height>150</height>
	    <backgroundColor>#FFFFFF</backgroundColor>
	</thumbnails>
	<prototypes>
	    <media type="Sitecore.Resources.Media.ImageMedia, Sitecore.Kernel" />

Sitecore Stream for PDXP – Content Extraction

Ivan Brygar1 Comment

In the new release, Sitecore introduced a brand-new feature – Content Extraction that can help extract data from various input sources, including files, URLs, or plain text. The latest package is version 1.3.23.

In my demo I’ll have 2 parts: preparation and execution.

Preparation

Let’s say we have a store of Powerful bars/gels, there can be lots of different products with different flavors, usage, package sizes, and so on. Hence for this kind of items (products) a template is needed:

Then we need a document, as for now it’s supported the next file formats: PDF, TXT, JPG, JPEG, PNG.

As an example, please refer to the following screenshot; in my case, it’s a PDF document. In real life, you might have a multipage document, but just be aware that the limit is 3MB and the maximum number of pages should be up to 30.
