[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Digital Objects navigation in v3

[Scott Renton]

Hi folks

Just about to put our main archives site up from v2.8.1 to v3.4.1. One of our archivists has noticed that where, in the past, she was able to link directly from an image to its source in a native system

(eg https://archives.collections.ed.ac.uk/repositories/2/archival_objects/141060 - the link goes to search results in the LUNA image management system)

she is now forced to go to the digital object first, meaning there's a second click to get there.

Looking at the code, my feeling is that this is a very conscious method of routing in version 3, and it is not something we should look to change (I wouldn't even think the native link is even available to the controller, but rather the digital object id). However, I did think we should check to see if anyone in the community has hit a similar use case and taken any action before we communicate that this is the correct way to work now.

Thanks very much
Scott

PS my colleague Patryk (cc'd) has an outstanding request to register onto the list using the http://lyralists.lyrasis.org/mailman/listinfo/archivesspace_users_group - he's not been accepted in yet though- this is still the way to register?
