A. No, Data import treats upper/lower-case as the same in file names and file extensions
Q.What happens when a MARC field/subfield is mapped to an Inventory record field with authorized values (a validation list), and the incoming data is not valid?
A. Here are a few examples of Inventory fields with authorized values: Permanent or temporary location, Statistical code, Call number type, Material type, Permanent or temporary loan type. If there is a fallback value in the field mapping profile (e.g. 980$a; else "Main (KU/CC/DI/M)"), then the record will be created/updated and the fallback value will be used. If there is not a fallback value, then the record will NOT be created or updated (regardless of whether the field is required or optional), and the user will see an error message in the Data Import log: Provided field name is not a valid value.
Q. Is there a way to remove records from Source Record Storage?

Q. When a library upgrades to a new version of Data Import (or more specifically, new versions of the modules that comprise Data Import, does the library need to load the sample data for any of the Data Import modules (e.g. mod-data-import, mod-data-import-converter-storage, mod-data-import-processing-core. mod-source-record-manager, mod-source-record-storage) If not, how do new default profiles get added?
A. There is no need to do anything specific. Default profiles are loaded automatically once a module is enabled for a tenant. New profiles added in a newer release version are also created during the module upgrade with no additional work from the users doing the upgrade.
Q. Data in an Inventory Instance that is based an underlying SRS MARC Bibliographic record is refreshed against the tenant's most recent MARC Bibliographic-to-Inventory Instance map. What triggers the refresh of an Instance with Source = MARC?
...
A. See below for each field in orange, sample data in green, and explanation in black.
"id":"908de854-977e-4fc4-b99b-438af3eed2a1" is the UUID for that particular generation of the record. For generation 0 it matches the 999 ff $s and the matchedId. For every generation after 0, it’s a new UUID (so that the incrementing copies of the SRS MARC can be organized)
"snapshotId":"cf7436ec-fa78-485a-b154-7f1545233d01" (same as jobExecutionId): UUID is analogous to the Job UUID in the Log UI.
"matchedId":"908de854-977e-4fc4-b99b-438af3eed2a1" the UUID that’s in 999 ff $s and an id for record with generation 0; it does not change; helps to keep the versions of the same SRS MARC Bib organized and related
"generation":0 generation: starts at 0 and increments. Generation is set for each record before storing it in the database. A previous version of this record is checked, and if it exists, the generation number is incremented by 1 before being saved to the database.
"recordType":"MARC"
"rawRecord": { "id":"908de854-977e-4fc4-b99b-438af3eed2a1" contains the raw MARC record from the import file, in a blob
"content": ...
"parsedRecord": { "id":"908de854-977e-4fc4-b99b-438af3eed2a1" contains the parsed MARC record, in MARC fields
"content":"fields":
"001":"in00000000003" Instance HRID; when a MARC record is firs created in SRS, the corresponding Instance is created in Inventory, and then the Inventory Instance HRID and UUID are sent to SRS. SRS moves any existing 001 data to an 035 field, and precedes that number with any 003 data, in parentheses, e.g. 001 12345 and 003 OCoLC become 035 $a (OCoLC)12345. Then the Instance HRID is placed in the (now-empty) 001 field of the SRS MARC record.
