Version edit history does not work when using skeletal file uploader #1472

Closed themerekat closed 1 month ago

themerekat commented 3 months ago

I ran this experiment in the Sandbox.

  1. Imported a CSV using Skeletal File Upload that had 1 record with three fields: catalogNumber, a field that already had data in the portal, a field that did NOT already have data in the portal
  2. Checked the box next to Version data changes image
  3. Uploaded CSV file.
  4. Looked at Edit/Verify Occurrence Records. I should have seen at least one "edit" in this table when the empty field was filled by the incoming data. But the Edit/Verify Occurrence Records table was completely empty.

Issue is that data versioning during batch imports is not supported for snapshot collections. This feature is only supposed to be offered for live managed collections. The "version data changes" checkbox was incorrectly being displayed for snapshot collections. This have been resolved within "hotfix 2024-08-07" (https://github.com/BioKIC/Symbiota/pull/1606).
