Why media are sent in an other database ?

[alexisheras]

Hi Mathieu,

We use your script to import data of the Ariege butterflies atlas and we're encountering an issue with fonction push_media_to_central. The media are imported in postgres but they're in a different database from submissions_data. We can't find where and why this happen in the script.
Do you have any suggestion to help us ?
Thank you.

Hi @alexisheras ,
what do you want to achieve ?

• Send a media file to Central (for example like a csv list to use as an external dataset for a select_one_from_file) ?
  -> This is the goal of the function you tried.

• Or get media that have been collected with Collect on your own server ?
  -> To do that you need to use the get_file_from_central() function.

Sorry, I was mistaken on the name of the fonction. Indeed, it's get_file_from_central() function.
