Documenting some learning from testing suppression here:

  • It's important to save the record in Sierra in a way that actually persists the changes - turns out it's easy to lose changes if you don't hit the right buttons.

  • deleted=true in the Sierra API is not "Include deleted records", it’s "Only send deleted records".

  • suppressed=true in Sierra API is not "include suppressed records", it's "Only send suppressed records".

  • deleted=true AND suppressed=true is a recipe for the entropic end of the universe.

    • A combination of the above 2 resulted in some tricky to understand scenarios - but I think we're through it now

  • The command line API client to Sierra was invaluable in unpicking what was going on here - particularly the ability to get a bib by ID.
