Introduction

This page provides a list of all ElasticSearch field names in the Access to Memory (AtoM) Rules for Archival Description (RAD) template. The list is organized according to the AtoM RAD template.

ElasticSearch field names use the two-letter ISO code for English (en). Replace the

Translatable ElasticSearch fields are prefaced with i18n.%LANG%. %LANG% is a placeholder for the two-letter ISO language code (e.g., en for English; fr for French). The interface for the Dalhousie Archives Catalogue is only available in English, so en should always be used in ElasticSearch queries that target translatable fields.
