DQM Connect

DQM Connect is the integration of DQM in the FirstSpirit ContentCreator.

DQM Connect analyzes the project page or template in FirstSpirit, which the user is currently viewing using criteria set by default and additional criteria set by the DQM admin and provides guidance on how to fix the problems found.


DQM analysis for templates

This functionality is license-dependent. You can only use the DQM analysis for templates with a valid DQM Connect license.

You can analyze the templates of a project using DQM. Problem areas in templates are therefore easily identifiable in the DQM report and you can access them directly.

You can perform the DQM analysis for templates in the following areas:

Analysis in fullscreen view or preview

  • Open a template in the template development for the ContentCreator in the fullscreen view
    Alternatively: Open a template in the preview.

    → The reference name and line number of the relevant templates are displayed.
  • Click on the reference name to go directly to the affected template and row.
    → If you are in the fullscreen view and the affected template is not the one currently open, a new tab with the affected template is opened. If you are in the preview, a new preview window is opened.
  • Move the mouse pointer over or next to the highlighted line in the template.
    → An explanation of the problem relating to the highlighted line is displayed.
