Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Digital Object Edit Batch

So you don't have API access? Can you install a plugin? Or is AS so locked down that those are also no gos? Both of those would allow you to do direct updates. API would be easier, but you can also write data migrations in a plugin. Joshua From:

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archival Object Edits Not Always Saving

A user in our department has occasionally run into an issue where archival object record edits won't save after clicking Save Archival Object. This issue is not reliably repeatable, but is not infrequent either. I've watched them reproduce the error (open an AO, make an edit to a note, click

Bad news is that I ONLY have access via staff side. Our instance is maintained by the university IT and its like an act of congress (get it, congressional archives…ha) to get them to do anything with AS. In file_version/file_uri:

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Digital Object Edit Batch

How are the links encoded ? In file_version/file_uri ? If that is the case it should be easy to change in MySQL. ( Note that if you make changes to the database via MySQL rather than the API, you will need to trigger a full reindex, as going thru the backdoor doesn’t trigger an individual

Hello everyone, I need to batch edit a bunch of digital objects that contain links to an internal content management system. I know that I can import data that created new digital objects and have played around with trying to 'update' the files with no luck (in a batch or bulk sense). There are

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archival object spreadsheet importer and Container Type dropdown

Hi Dan, Well, yes, we manage our container types in our controlled value lists. I do use the yaml enums file to control the display value of all values in the controlled value lists. So the yaml enums file will, for example, contain values for container type like "oversize_box" with a translation

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archival object spreadsheet importer and Container Type dropdown

Hi Lara, Have you tried using the value and not the label? For example, Microfilm Box may be the label, but microfilm_box the value. Try using the latter if you haven’t already. From: archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyralists.lyrasis.org On Behalf Of Dan Michelson Sent: Thursday, December

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archival object spreadsheet importer and Container Type dropdown

Hi Lara, Container types are managed through a controlled values list, not the yml file. Are there values in that list that are not working with the importer? All the best, Dan On Thu, Dec 16, 2021 at 12:54 PM Lara Michels wrote: > Hi all, > > I wonder if anyone can advise us on an issue we

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archival object spreadsheet importer and Container Type dropdown

Hi all, I wonder if anyone can advise us on an issue we are encountering with the spreadsheet importer for archival objects. There are values for "container type" available in our yml file that the spreadsheet importer does not seem to recognize. This causes the import to fail. In other words,
