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.

Do you know when we can expect the next version of ArchivesSpace will be released?

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.

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?

(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.

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. _______________________________________________ Archivesspace_Users_Group mailing list Archivesspace_Users_Group@lyralists.lyrasis.org<mailto:Archivesspace_Users_Group@lyralists.lyrasis.org> http://lyralists.lyrasis.org/mailman/listinfo/archivesspace_users_group _______________________________________________ Archivesspace_Users_Group mailing list Archivesspace_Users_Group@lyralists.lyrasis.org<mailto:Archivesspace_Users_Group@lyralists.lyrasis.org> http://lyralists.lyrasis.org/mailman/listinfo/archivesspace_users_group -- ANNA ROBINSON-SWEET ASSOCIATE ARCHIVIST THE NEW SCHOOL ARCHIVES & SPECIAL COLLECTIONS she/her pronouns 66 FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK, NY 10011 robin...@newschool.edu<mailto:x...@newschool.edu> T 212.229.2942 x3375 @TNSArchives newschool.edu/100<http://www.newschool.edu/100> [https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=189ZGQUNkFTPT1lROYObQ8PLnSSMd5Hk6&revid=0B5_JPhPijR4aTVZLSEQ5VlR5VkkyaGU2K3JHYmVPUFU2UWpJPQ]
