− | The [http://www.archivesportaleurope.net Archives Portal Europe] publishes the archival content provided by its different partners through a back-end called the Dashboard. An option allows delivering the data also to Europeana by using the same Dashboard. These wiki pages describe the different tasks to be done by the institution manager within the Dashboard. | + | |

| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <!--T:4-->
| + | |

− | The Archives Portal Europe offers two environments to the partners: the Production and the Content Checker. Each environment consists of a front-end (the Portal) and a back-end (the Dashboard). They are strictly independent from each other.

| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <!--T:13-->
| + | |
− | The Production server Dashboard [https://www.archivesportaleurope.net/Dashboard http://www.archivesportaleurope.net/Dashboard] is the web environment where you upload your data for the online public production version, available for the public and the search engines. All data that is uploaded and processed here is available via the official Production Portal [http://www.archivesportaleurope.net http://www.archivesportaleurope.net].

− | * '''The Content Checker server Dashboard'''
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <!--T:15-->
| + | |
− | The Content Checker server Dashboard [https://contentchecker.archivesportaleurope.net/Dashboard https://contentchecker.archivesportaleurope.net/Dashboard] is an almost exacte duplicate of the production one, meant as a simulation environment for testing purposes only. All data that is uploaded and processed here is available via it's front-end [http://contentchecker.archivesportaleurope.net http://contentchecker.archivesportaleurope.net]. This simulation or demo environment is emptied each first Tuesday of the month. The date of this so called "maintenance day" is published on the homepage of the front-end.

| + | |
− | This Content Checker or demo environment allows you to experiment with the portal, to test the workflow of data upload and processing, so to check how your data will look like on the portal before publishing them "for real" in the Production environment. Needless to say that it is highly recommended to use the Content Checker Dashboard before using the Production Dashboard.

− | == Principal functionalities and workflows of the Dashboard == <!--T:18-->
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <!--T:19-->
| + | |
− | The Dashboard includes all necessary functionalities for the Institution managers to:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <!--T:20-->
| + | |
− | * upload, validate, convert, normalise, check, create, publish content in the Archives Portal Europe,
| + | |
− | * convert and deliver data to Europeana,
| + | |
− | * delete content in the Archives Portal Europe and arrange deletion of content in Europeana.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <!--T:21-->
| + | |
− | All source files submitted to the Archives Portal Europe should be in XML format and at least compliant with one of the following standards:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <!--T:22-->
| + | |
− | * EAD 2002 or ISAD(G) for finding aids, source guides, holdings guides;
| + | |
− | * EAC-CPF or ISAAR-CPF for records on persons, families or corporate bodies;
| + | |
− | * EAG 2012 or ISDIAH for information about institutions.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <!--T:23-->
| + | |
− | It is highly recommended to use UTF-8 encoding.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <!--T:24-->
| + | |
− | The portal relies on different types of XML files: EAG files to describe the archival institutions, EAD files to describe the archival material, EAC-CPF files to describe the archives records creators. They are all based on the international archival standards. Europeana uses another type of XML file: EDM files. All these different types of files are handled within the Dashboard via different processes and workflows.
