OpenAtlas

Thank you for your interesting question. Currently, it is not possible to import links with the user interface.

One possibility to enter links between entities would be to use the import information stored in the database import schema. One important requirement is, that respective entities have a unique ID at the CSV import. You could then e.g. create a CSV file with the columns origin_domain_id, origin_range_id and property, and use that for an SQL. For example:

INSERT INTO model.link (domain_id, range_id, property_code) 
VALUES (
  (SELECT entity_id FROM import.entity WHERE origin_id = origin_domain_id),
  (SELECT entity_id FROM import.entity WHERE origin_id = origin_range_id),
  'P46'
);

This is just an example, and instead of P46 you have to choose the needed property. Maybe it would be easier with a script.

Feel free to contact us, in case you have more questions.

Here is an example, how the link table may look like.

The places.csv and bibliography.csv can be imported via the user interface in OpenAtlas. With a (python) script, using the SQL example, one can use the link.csv to link the entities.
I hope this will help you for the moment. Feel free to contact us, if more questions arise.

After speaking with Bernhard, I am going to close this issue for now. Thanks again for giving me the necessary hints. Your advice was really helpful and appreciated, hopefully I can still implement this at some point.
