Hi Grant,


I am actually not aware of any format documentation that is available right now.
However, you can see a listing of the headers here:

https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/v1.0.2/migrations/importers/accessions.rb#L19-L102

The hash follows a convention of  { column header} => { import destination} or { column header} => [ { filter method } , { import designation} ]

So, for example 'accession_title' => 'accession.title' means the accession_title column goes to the accession.title filed  and   'accession_cataloged_date' => [date_flip, 'cataloged_event_date.expression'] has a data_flip transformation before it is put into the cataloged_event_date.expression field.

We will be working on more documentation for the importers in the very near future.

let me know if you have any questions...

b,chris.

I'm  wondering if there is a full list of field names for importing accessions as a csv file.  I have managed to work part of this out but would prefer to work from documentation if it is available.

Many thanks

Grant
