add support for upload via email #93

Open OriHoch opened 3 years ago

upload via email is the main method of data upload to odata, but it is currently not very stable and has some problems

we should implement this using dgp and could then support it for all datacity sites

Do you have a system in place for validating the data received by mail - making sure it's publishable before it is displayed on the site?

the way it works in odata -

As I said before, this is an awesome feature but it's less useful for the municipal case.

In this case there's usually one person that is responsible for uploading datasets (after receiving approval from superiors and the legal department). This person usually needs to be proactive in getting datasets and it happens rarely and not often.

If the off-case that a department actively wants to upload a new dataset they would usually send the file to that person which would need to do the proper bureaucratic process before uploading and publishing.

  • only specific email address are allowed to send mail
  • based on the sending email address, the data is uploaded from the relevant user's organization
  • data is uploaded privately and user can then review and set it to public
