Is there a way to batch upload digital objects (e.g. profile photos) to new Authority Records as they are created? I don't see a column in the Authority record template and the Digital Object Load Task only applies to information objects.Thanks!

Hi Chris,
It's coming, but unfortunately not supported in 2.5.x!
Sometimes with larger features, we develop them incrementally, to allow institutions to sponsor what they can afford while meeting their primary needs - and then collaborating with other sponsors to help fill out and enhance the overall functionality in later releases.
This is the case with digital object support for authority records, although it's the same sponsor in both cases - the initial sponsoring institution covered the big part of the work in the first pass, and then, once their funding cycle was renewed, is now adding CSV import and export support in the upcoming 2.6 release.
The related development ticket for 2.6 is here: The authority record CSV template is also getting an overhaul that will improve import and export functionality. Previously, alternative forms of name (such as parallel names, standardized forms of name based on other rules, and other forums of name) had to be imported via a separate CSV that could only be uploaded via the command-line. The same was true for relationships with other authority records - and you could only create relationships between new authority records in a separate CSV uploaded via the command-line at the same time.
In 2.6, the aliases CSV fields have been folded into the primary authority record CSV template, allowing alternative forms of name to be added via an import through the user interface. Additionally, the relationships CSV has been improved and support for it via the user inteface has been added - as well as the ability to add relationships to existing authority records.
We're currently hoping for a 2.6 release in early July, so stay tuned! In the meantime however, you'll need to add your authority record digital objects manually via the user interface.

I'll build my authority records up externally and then import them when its finished.
Secondary questions, Will this CSV import/export accept the roundtripping info update process?
And do the CSV imports fail if unfilled columns are missing?
