Batch operations using DSpace 7 REST API
Recently, a friend approached me seeking help with their DSpace for a couple of issues, namely:
Blog
Convert Spreadsheet (Excel or Calc) Data Into DSpace Simple Archive Format Package
On a freshly setup DSpace one would want to upload existing publications, typically maintained in spreadsheets like MS Excel or OpenOffice Calc. I would always recommend uploading such records in a batch process. Doing it manually would not only be prone to errors but also time consuming and cumbersome.
