DSpace 7.3 Bulk Upload

[Tianyi Gu]

Hi all,

I can't see the Batch Import from UI and also have no luck running the "import' command

I follow the guide Importing and Exporting Items via Simple Archive Format

The command I used:

[dspace]/bin/dspace import --add --eperson=j...@user.com --collection=CollectionID --source=items_dir --mapfile=mapfile

Please advise.

Thank you,

tianyi

Hi Tianyi,

What errors are you getting when you try the CLI command? The thing that stands out to me first is that I don't think you should use the = in your parameters?

When trying from a 7.x UI, make sure you are logged in as an administrator. You can find the button in the sidebar menu:

Hope this helps!

Hi Tianyi,

The Batch Import / Bulk Upload command wasn't available in the DSpace 7 Admin UI until the 7.4 release.  See the release notes at https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Release+Notes#ReleaseNotes-7.4ReleaseNotes

So, for this feature to work from the Admin UI, you'd need to upgrade to 7.4.  In 7.3 though, it should work from the commandline (only).

Thank you, everyone!

Kim, I am working on recreating the error...
