Batch import media files with your Media Handling procedures

Requirements

Your files must be accessible on the Web.

Each file to import must have its own URL.

This URL must be publicly available or made accessible to the CollectionSpace application (more detail needed here).

How to

Prepare the CSV file for your media records as you would prepare any other data that gets imported into CollectionSpace fields.

Current CollectionSpace Converter Tool

Add a column named blob_uri.

Put the URL for the appropriate media file in this column for each row.

New CSV Import Tool in development

All CSV Templates for the Media procedure will include a column called mediaFileURI.

Put the URL for the appropriate media file in this column for each row.
