Hi Team,
I imported an application and now see there are no billboard images a!documentImage("id")and no fields on interface where i restricted the access isusermemberofgroup id="",
because id is not same and i understand that UUID is the unique identifier to make use of.When i make use of getcontentsbyUUID it says not available.
1.What plugin to use for making use of UUID,how to add plugin and where ? Plugins are specific to application?
2.Is there any other workaround for making use of UUID without plugin's?
3.In my database for all fields(images and documents) ID is getting stored. How can i make UUID stored instead? If i get UUID stored somehow , i think we still need the plugin to make use of getcontentsbyUUID right?
Please help me understand.

You can place your image in a constant in dev environment and update that constant when you are importing to other environments.
Hi Naveen,
i tried creating a constant that points to my image document.And now i thought of checking the option "Different env. will have diff values for this constant". But i dont have that enabled.
To prevent unintentional changes to an environment’s value for this constant, the value of an environment specific constant is not updated on import unless set via an import customization file. The currently selected constant type cannot be set as environment specific.
Should i do something in Customization file?
You don't need different values for each environment because presumably you would use the same image or group in dev / test / prod. Just make sure you deploy the image along with your application. Then, instead of referencing the UUID or using a plugin function, just directly reference your constant in the expression.
Thank you Peter! that helps.
