We also include some other info that's useful for us, such as external links, user defined fields, and collection management data. Post-lockdown, we also added scopenote and bionote information to aid in targeting remediation efforts. The data retrieved from the AS API and written to a Google sheet by a script on a nightly basis. The Python code is here: <br></div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://github.com/cul/rbml-archivesspace/blob/master/reporting/resource_reporter.py">https://github.com/cul/rbml-archivesspace/blob/master/reporting/resource_reporter.py</a></div><div><br></div><div>You would need API access and possibly some developer support, but this is an alternative to modifying any AS code. <br></div><div><br></div><div>We took this approach both because these were the tools we knew (Python, Google sheets, scripts), and also because we are hosted -- this keeps our AS instance clean and easy to upgrade.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Kevin<br></div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Dec 9, 2020 at 1:48 PM Majewski, Steven Dennis (sdm7g) <<a href="mailto:sdm7g@virginia.edu">sdm7g@virginia.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="overflow-wrap: break-word;">On second thought, if you’re not adept with JSON tools, then exporting as CSV and loading in EXCEL to sort and group by created_by might be an easier solution. <div><br></div><div>And the missing translation errors don’t show up in the CSV: </div><div><br></div><div>repository,Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library<br><br>record_title,identifier,level,resource_type,publish,restrictions,created_by,create_time,date,extent<br>Jack R.
