Hi, I am attempting this now and I got the error that I am missing an EAD ID. However, we do not use EAD IDs, plus the instructions do not indicate it is required. IT does clearly state that ONLY the archival object ID is used in the upload.
One issue not addressed, if I want to link/create new multiple top containers to one archival object record. Not sure what you are missing, consider sending your spreadsheet so someone can look it over. Did you delete any rows you shouldn't have? Did you include the required data for creating new top containers and/or use the correct ID numbers? Hope someone can help on this. Will be checking JIRA tickets to see if there are any reports on this feature.

I've tried importing as .xslx and .csv, but I always get the same error: "Skipping creation and linking of top containers due to errors." The instructions page says "A detailed note will appear in the Background Jobs page with the reason for failure", but the error message isn't particularly helpful. I'm running v.3.3.1. I've tried the usual - using LibreOffice while working with spreadsheets, making sure the cells are formatted as text, etc. I'm wondering if I'm missing some other magic that someone else has figured out? Some of my box numbers include dashes and parentheses - are there any known restrictions on character types in these fields? Or do I need to sacrifice a paper clip under a full moon before running the upload? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Julie ---- Julie C.
