conkeyref behaviour in the Attributes panel for Prolog elements

Question

I want to use conkeyref to add values for elements in the prolog, for eample, prodname or category. I have created the required keys and bound it to the map/topic. I am able to add the conkeyref in the content of the topic, say within a

tag, but not with the Prolog. The key list is displayed, but upon selection of a key, the Update button in the dialog box is displayed. So, I used the source mode, and added the conkeyref. It picks up as conkeyref within the prodname or category is DITA valid. In short, here is the observed behavior:The Attributes panel in Web Editor does not allow updating conkeyref on elements inside .Even using “Insert → Reuse Content” or moving the conkeyref to a dedicated attribute on does not enable the Update button in this context.Is there a configuration that I am missing? OR is this an out-of-the-box behavior in AEM Guides. There’s no configuration to get the conkeyref working for Prolog from the Author view of Web Editor using the Attributes panel. @divrajsingh Please confirm.

@aravindanand : to understand this - do you mean that:

the usage of conkeyref (sample)
does not allow you to update the conkeyref in author mode i.e. the "Update" button is disabled?
and you are able to add the expected value in source mode?

See screenshot below [1] from what I understood from your problem statement

Please confirm if this is what you are facing.

Hi there, By rule,

is not allowed in the prolog. It is meant for topic-level metadata. Try creating a keydef that uses one of the allowed elements within prolog. Then you should be able to conkeyref that element. I hope this helps.
