Description
Qualify an explicit exhibition object number by catalogue edition while preserving leading zeros.
Art records distinguish inscriptions, source readings, edition states, provenance dates and authority identifiers. A recorded signature is not authenticated authorship, and a possible-date span is not a probability distribution. Linear impression/plate ratios preserve selected geometry without establishing edition identity or value.
Qualify an explicit exhibition object number by catalogue edition while preserving leading zeros.
When to use this tool
Use Exhibition Catalogue Object Number Token when you already have exhibitionId, catalogueEdition, objectNumberText and need to qualify an explicit exhibition object number by catalogue edition while preserving leading zeros.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter exhibitionId, catalogueEdition, objectNumberText. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read token. Use the output convention below.
Enter exhibitionId, catalogueEdition, objectNumberText using the field constraints below. Encode these values, in exactly that order, as a JSON array and return the serialized array as text in token. String values are preserved without trimming or external terminology lookup.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| exhibitionId | Exhibition Id | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| catalogueEdition | Catalogue Edition | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| objectNumberText | Object Number Text | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| token | Token | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
{
"input": {
"exhibitionId": "EX17",
"catalogueEdition": "v2",
"objectNumberText": "042"
},
"output": {
"token": "[\"EX17\",\"v2\",\"042\"]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- The record preserves supplied identifiers, wording and provenance; it does not authenticate the source, resolve an identifier, retrieve evidence or verify the asserted relationship.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Inspect original works, source documents, catalogues and relevant authority records. Use the complete provenance and scholarly assessment for attribution, chronology or rights; local labels and ratios do not make those determinations.
