Hello Anna,

The team was talking about this yesterday. We’re expecting to put out a release 
with the improvements to the spreadsheet importer in early November.

Hi Christine,

Following up on your exchange with Wendy regarding the improved spreadsheet 
importer. Do you know when we can expect the next version of ArchivesSpace will 
be released?

Thanks,
Anna

Hi Wendy,

That’s great to hear. The improved importer will be in the next version of 
ArchivesSpace.

I understand that Bobbi Fox, the original developer of this functionality, has 
been in touch with you. She confirmed that what you’re trying to do is not 
supported. Now that the importer is in ArchivesSpace, new feature requests 
would be evaluated through our regular development prioritization process. You 
can file a feature request by following the instructions at 
https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ADC/pages/19202060/How+to+Request+a+New+Feature.

Subject: Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] spreadsheet imports in 2.8v SUI

Hi Christine,

Thank you for your reply. Yes! I was able to successfully import both 
spreadsheets in the sandbox! No error messages. Is there a patch that we can 
apply to our instance to make this work for us?

This does, however, lead me to another question. We are hoping to use the File 
version URI field to enter an internal file path (not an actual link), and I 
thought that if I used column BL on the import spreadsheet (column K on the DO 
spreadsheet) that the file path would populate the URI field--alas, it doesn't. 
But I don't see another field on the spreadsheet where one can place the 
non-linking file path to have it populate the URI field. Is there one that I'm 
just not interpreting properly?

Many thanks,
Wendy

Hi Wendy,

Can you try importing your file into a dummy record on our test server: 
http://test.archivesspace.org/staff/? (username admin, password admin)

We’ve been working on a number of changes to the importer based on feedback 
since 2.8.0. The pretty_inspect message usually means there’s a data error that 
should be caught by the logging process that shows up post-import. Some errors 
were not accounted for in the version in 2.8.0 so you get that message instead 
of the error, but should be there. The digital objects issue is not familiar to 
me, but I’m wondering if that may be different there too.

You’ll start the import the same way you usually would on the test server, but 
it will move the process over to a background job so that it can run more 
quickly and the log is more easily downloadable afterwards. If you need any 
more guidance on that, please let me know.

Christine

Hi,

In addition to the DO import spreadsheet error that I indicated in my recent 
email re: duplicate field codes, another error message I'm receiving in trying 
to import the DOs is: "{"error":"undefined method `pretty_inspect' for #"}"

I'd be grateful for any insight you can provide on these issues.

Many thanks,
Wendy

Hi,

In attempting to upload spreadsheets into ASpace using the Load via Spreadsheet 
functionality in the 2.8v SUI, I'm running into 2 issues and hoping that 
someone can shed some light. In each case, I'm using the import spreadsheets 
downloaded from Github:

(1)  Using the general import spreadsheet to upload a collection that includes 
digital objects--fields BJ (digital_object_id), BK (digital_object_title), BL 
(digital_object_link) the archival objects imported, but not the digital 
objects.

(2) Using the DO import spreadsheet (again, downloaded directly from Github), 
I'm getting the error message "This spreadsheet has duplicate Archive Space 
Field codes:  , , , , , , , , , , , , ," However, I don't see any obvious 
duplicate field codes in Row 4 of the spreadsheet.
