- Collection — what kind of file it is, such as Journal or Images.
- What the file belongs to — such as Journal entry or Artwork, with a link to it.
- File type — such as Image, with the technical format below.
- Size.
- Captured and Uploaded — when the picture was taken (if the camera recorded it), and when it was uploaded.
- Location — the GPS position. Below it is where it came from: From the camera’s EXIF data or Set by hand. If the picture has none, it says so.
- Description, if the file has one.
- Checksum (SHA-256) — the file’s fingerprint. Two files with the same checksum are exactly the same file. heyArtist uses it to spot duplicates.
