[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Digital Objects as children of Archival Objects

[Kendall Aughenbaugh]

Hi all,

Is it possible to attach digital objects as children of archival objects? I'm building out how I want to incorporate digital objects, and I can't get this part figured out.

We typically created finding aids at the folder level -- and I'd prefer to keep it that way -- but we tend to digitize at the item level. I'd like to link individual digital objects as children of their parent folder without having to create an individual item level archival object for each digital one. It feels redundant and unnecessary since the digital object is capable of capturing the same exact information.

My attempt to do this yesterday resulted in 5 digital objects being attached to the folder level archival object, which is OK for now but not ideal. Any ideas?
