Hi all,

A potential partial answer for the user.json.type question.

Poking around on the wiki I found a doc that seems to attempt to map Voyager, Aleph, etc user data elements into userdata.json and userdataimport.json which may or may not be useful to a discussion of user.json

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jiMJz-wTBhSkpVrJOFQh2tGmm9-AXATphu2dMcACkws/edit#gid=2094559533

type is described (for userdataimport.json) as "class of user", analogous to Voyager patron_name_type.patron_name_desc and to Aleph z305_bor_status

I'm hoping we hear back from someone on the slack channel

2. I got a query from TAMU asking about the data field user.json.type. I’ve never heard of it, and a cursory look at the documentation didn’t get me any better information. Does anybody know what it is? Has anybody assigned any data to it in their user loads?
