[Archivesspace_Users_Group] [FORGED] Re: Is it possible to include a summary note in a digital object CSV?

[Brad Westbrook]

Hi, Stephen,

There is no controlled value list for the Accession Identifier field, or other identifier fields.  But you can set default values for each of the four parts in that field.  To do so, please follow the instructions for Setting Default Values<https://docs.archivesspace.org/Default.htm#BasicsDefaultValues.htm?Highlight=Default%20values> in the user manual.

Let us know if anything is unclear or if you run into any problems.

Cheers,

Brad W.

Can someone point me to the Controlled Value list for the Accession Identifier field? I want to insert a default value prior to the accession number but can’t see a list which matches this.

Thanks,

Nancy Kennedy suggested: “If your archival objects don't yet exist, have you considered importing via EAD?  You could build out the archival objects and associated digital objects at the same time, saving yourself the trouble of manual linking.”

I had not considered that (d’oh!), but now that you mention it, it does look like the optimal solution for this project. Nancy, you mentioned that you had some examples you could share. I would very much like to see them. Thank you!

Also, thank you Mark, Robert, and Steve, for suggestions on the API option.

I’m grateful to all the helpful people on this list!
