Article relationships will allow you to relate either a Subject or a Press Release to an item of your coverage either manually or automatically.
Manually
An article can be manually associated with a Press release by firstly searching then selecting the coverage, using the checkboxes at the side of the coverage:
Next you can select "Link to Release" as per the above. Your coverage will now appear in a chart in the Analysis page itemising the coverage attached to your Releases:
Automatically
You can request access to this option this from via your Account Manager.
The option to add and edit Article Relationships will be found within Account settings:
Click through to this option and you may see currently set up relationships.
Click New Relationship to create a new one. You may also edit or delete from here too:
Next, you need to complete the fields as follows:
Relationship Name - Name the relationship.
Ranking - Articles can be automatically assigned to one Release & Subject at a time. If the article matches multiple relationship criteria (search terms) Ranking will choose whichever has the higher rank.
NewsFeed Client - Some accounts may contain sub accounts, therefore this lets you choose which account or sub account is effected. Please note this can be left blank.
NewsFeed Group - Sometimes coverage will be categorised into Groups. E.g. This account could have different sets of online coverage like National, International etc. Please note this can be left blank.
NewsFeed - This relates the tagging of coverage to just one set of Newsfeed. E.g. Print, Online, Broadcast. Please note this can be left blank.
Related Release - This is where you select which Press Release / Distribution the coverage will be related to.
Related Subject - If you wish to associate coverage to a Subject/ Issue.
Date From - Set a date of when you wish to start relating to coverage.
Date To - If you would like to set an end date (e.g. as part of a campaign).
Search Terms - These are the keywords and phrases the platform will use to identify the coverage and relate it to your Press Release.
NOTE: You will need to create a separate search string if you require coverage to be related to more than one subject/release.
