Describe what you're trying to do The current Bulkload Event Attributes Tool (https://arctos.database.museum/tools/BulkloadEventAttrs.cfm?action=ld) requires you to add attributes by event_name. However, most of my collecting events recently added do not have event_names. I would like to be able to add event attributes by the unique collecting_event_id instead.
I may be missing somewhere where this is possible already, or maybe this is a fundamental feature in Arctos which I am misunderstanding. But if I understand correctly, the collecting_event_id is a unique identifier for each collecting event, so it seems like we should be able to use this as the id to add attributes to?
