For every validator, the following properties are the same. Replace `{validatorName}` with the name of the validator specified in the section for the validator further down. ##### assetValidation.{validatorName}.nodeIdValid > type: long, required: no, default: - If this property is set, the valid assets are collected in the configured node. This can help to find the valid assets and get an overview. Initially, all the assets can be validated and added to the node by running the "Revalidate Assets"-Task in "General"-Tab in System Tasks. ##### assetValidation.{validatorName}.nodeIdInvalid > type: long, required: no, default: - If this property is set, the invalid assets are collected in the configured node. This can help to find the valid assets and get an overview.

NOTE: to show the bullet, the validatorName needs to be added to the list of bullets in the property "guiPlugin.bullets.asset=". This property is global and may be also used by other plugins. If not, the celum bullets need to be added to the list, e.g. `guiPlugin.bullets.asset=noAssetType,invalidInformationFields,unlinked,unreleased,availability,locked,duplicate,conversionStatus,fileTypeWhitelistValdiator` ##### assetValidation.{validatorName}.bulletId > type: String, **required: yes**, default: - This property sets the ID of the bullet shown on invalid assets.
