Import and export
A project’s import and export routes are in the sidebar, on the Data In- & Export tab.
| Button | Direction | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| Images & Files | out | File export |
| Excel Tables | out | Excel export |
| Word reports | out | Word reports |
| Metadata standards | out | Export LIDO |
| Copy field catalog for AI | clipboard | The structure of the fields, see below |
| Bulk File Import | in | Assign files in bulk |
| Excel | in | Excel import |
| Documents and scans (OCR) | in | OCR import |
| Metadata standard (LIDO) | in | Import LIDO |
Resolve references and Completeness for standard exports are on the Check tab. After an Excel import, Resolve (n) in the closing message opens the parked values directly.
A calendar file (ICS) with the objects’ dates comes from the calendar view .
The LIDO import also reads files from other collection systems and EODEM files from loans, with terms, measurements and events. Names of people and places arrive as text, not as authority records. Which route suits what is described in Bring your collection over from other software .
What an export includes
Always the current object selection: whatever filters, full-text search and Wahl leave. The sort order applies too. A Word template can bring its own sorting and grouping and so replace those of the view.
Field catalogue for AI
Copy field catalog for AI puts the project’s field catalogue on the clipboard as Markdown, for pasting into any chat window: field names, field types, subfields and field groups, only for the fields you may read. Object data is not included, only the structure of the fields. Moliri sends nothing to a language model.
For particular tasks there are ready-made prompts that already contain the catalogue, such as Copy prompt for a template in the Word reports .
The template language
Word reports are produced from .docx templates with embedded commands. The language of these commands is
described in the Word templates section:
- Template syntax : commands, loops, conditions
- Template variables : which data are available
- Template functions : the helper functions
The starting point for template authors: Create a Word template .
If another system processes an export further, such as a portal or a borrower’s list, the form of the export is an agreement with that recipient. Agree any change to the field selection, the column order or the mapping of a standard with them first.
