When setting up Drupal content types for use as Publish Form templates in Enterprise, the content type fields need to adhere to specific rules. The rules for each field are listed below.
Note: When your Drupal content type contains fields that do not adhere to these rules, these fields are not imported and a difference exists between the content type in Drupal and the Publish Form template in Enterprise.
Info: To make use of fields for Drupal 8, Enterprise Server 9.5.0 or higher is required.
