Create new artworks using the 'Upload and Create Multiple' tool
Use images as your starting point to quickly upload small groups of artwork records. Using this upload process is an alternative to the more comprehensive Import tool for artworks.
Steps
- Log in to your database and go to Artworks
- At the bottom, click New record > Upload and create Multiple
- Tick 'Extract fields from filename' to extract certain information like the title and artist etc from the image file names by separating each field with a comma in the file name (e.g. 'Pablo Picasso, Untitled, 1953')
- Click 'Upload images' and choose your files
- Fill the available fields to complete the details of your record. Ensure all information is accurate before clicking 'Save records'. Once saved, these records will appear in your Main Artworks inventory.
- Select 'View new records in list' to see your new uploads.
