The Meridian API constants

The Meridian API provides many constants. A constant is a meaningful name that represents a number or a string and never changes. You can use constants to query for and specify application states and options. These constants can be used with their related methods (actions) and properties (data) to manipulate vault objects and control application behavior. The Meridian constants are members of enumerations that are each used for a specific purpose. You can view all of the Meridian constants with the Object Browser of the Meridian Enterprise Script Editor.

The following table describes each Meridian constant enumeration.
