Re: [EP-tech] UserID's on import

I think you want the --enable-import-fields option.  Documentation says:


Allow the import to set fields that are set as not to be imported. This is typically used to specify the imported object id.

Subject: [EP-tech] UserID's on import
 

Hello all!

 

Still working on my EPrints migration. I’m trying to import an XML file with user details contained, however I’m hitting a bit of a stumbling block – the import seems to be wanting to assign the users their own ID rather than use the one that is in the XML file which means that certain relationships between users and records seem to be out of sync. Is this a thing or am I imagining it? Is there a command on the import I need to include that I’m perhaps missing? Any thoughts would be most welcome!

 

Andrew
