Archivists Toolkit integration

Main Page > Development > Development documentation > Integration with Archivists' Toolkit

Workflow

1. The user processes a SIP the same way that all SIPs are processed
2. At the Upload DIP micro-service, the user selects "Upload to Archivists' Toolkit"
3. This automatically opens a data-entry page which must be completed by the user
4. When the user saves the data and closes the data-entry page, the data are written to a text file in the DIP called ATmetadata.txt
5. The DIP is placed in /uploadedDIPs/AT/.
6. The user can edit the metadata in the text file if desired
7. The user manually imports the test file into Archivists' Toolkit
