No Works Created in Create Batch of Works
Descriptive summary
We are running Hyku version 6 with all main commits up to the latest, 69b3e60.
When creating a batch of works by either choosing specific files or choosing a folder, the system seems to tell us that everything is working as it should, but those items never show up.
In this example, we have 8 existing works. I am bringing in 6 more files using Create Batch of Works. In the last screenshot, you can see that no files have been added.
Rationale
There are many times a library would want to add more than one item at a time, but not want to use Bulkrax, particularly if metadata is very similar among the items.
Expected behavior
When using Create Batch of Works, those works are added to the repository in a similar manner than allows users to add works one at a time.
Actual behavior
The works are not added to the repository. I cannot tell what the reason might be.
Steps to reproduce the behavior
- Open Dashboard in Hyku
- Be sure that creating batch of works is enabled in Settings - Features
- Open Works
- Choose Create Batch of Works
- Choose a few files to import
- Provide required metadata
- Choose collection
- Make works public
- Accept deposit agreement
- Save

@SixtyGrit I followed these instructions and did not experience this behavior in pg.nurax.samvera.org.
Here's the public collection that I created and then bulk added works (chosen in step 7): https://pg.nurax.samvera.org/collections/4cefe5d3-a1d4-45c4-9d71-52d0c08f7ab2?locale=en
Thinking it might be the "add to collection" component, I also created a batch not in a collection
