[Archivesspace_Users_Group] batch associating digital object records

[Emma Jolley]

Hi Jason and Jessica (and Brad)

Many thanks for such helpful responses. I was wondering if the API was the way to go.

Thanks again

Emma

Brad Westbrook suggested I document the process which I'm undertaking now. Should have something by the end of the week and I'll post it on my GitHub page. Meantime, CalTech maintains the cait project which does something similar, though I haven't tested it yet.

https://github.com/caltechlibrary/cait

Please contact me off-list if you want to talk through the particulars of your project and I'll see what I can do to help!

Best, Jason

Jason,

I’d love to hear your suggestions! I didn’t hear any other responses, Emma, but had sort of figured out that using the API might be the only way to do this.

Thanks,
Jessica

Hi Emma, Jessica,

We routinely use Librecat's Catmandu to convert csv files and MARC records to JSON, then use API methods to accomplish this. If you like, I can walk you through the process.

Hi Jessica

Did you get an answer to this query?

We have a similar requirement, to attach Digital Objects to an existing Resource record. Ideally we’d like to do it with the DO import spreadsheet but happy to do within the AS if a batch process is possible.

Thanks

Emma

Hello,

I’ve used the batch import spreadsheet to import metadata for a number of digital objects. I want to attach them all to a Resource record I already have in place. Is there a way to do this as a batch? Or do I have to affiliate the digital objects with the Resource record one at a time? (There are nearly 150 of these.)

Thanks,
Jessica
