ProtectOptions

Options that control protection behavior (separate from label metadata).

Properties

preserveManifest?

optional preserveManifest?: boolean;

When true (default), any valid existing C2PA manifest in the asset is preserved and the new manifest references it as a parent ingredient. Set to false to discard existing provenance and start fresh.

source?

optional source?: ProtectSource;

How the asset was acquired.

• camera (default): asset was captured by the app → c2pa.created
• upload / imported: user-provided asset → c2pa.opened
