GEPS 046: FamilySearch Integration

This GEP was created to document the discussions about Gramps FamilySearch integration.

Functionality

What functionality would our users like to see?

• Auto-import basic information: If a user has already linked their FamilySearch ID, it would be incredibly helpful to automatically import their core information at the start of their initial research. This would save countless hours and prevent users from having to rebuild everything from scratch. (Jeff - jj0192)

• Duplicate detection and merging: Adding a feature that can identify and merge duplicate FSIDs would streamline the workflow and prevent confusion caused by repeated records. (Jeff - jj0192)

Integration

How integrated should the solution be with the Gramps GUI?
