What do I need to provide?
The appliance requires the following:

- A set of image files residing on your local disk that are compliant with the iDigBio Policy on Acceptable Formats for iDigBio-hosted Images
- A Creative Commons license that you would like to apply to all the images. If you need guidance on the selection, look at iDigBio Intellectual License Property Policy.
- A comma-separated file (CSV) containing at least the full path to the location of each image and the GUID you would like to assign to the media metadata.

FAQ
How can I get the account UUID and API key pair?
- You can get a account UUID / API key pair by contacting Alex (godfoder@acis.ufl.edu).
I have trouble installing the appliance on a Mac machine and I get the error message "'iDigBio Image Ingestion Tool' can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.
