I have an implementation of the described behavior above. I can push those changes. However, this solution currently utilizes the "legacy" login which I am trying to phase out. I would love your opinions on the following workflow. This moves login / collection selection / potentially file selection to a modal and attempts to do the heavy lifting behind the scenes.

• Behavior remains unchanged from the current workflow.

Import Resources

1. Copy File to Working Directory

• The selected file is copied into the user’s working directory.
• The copy is retained only if the user successfully uploads the file to an SBH instance in Step 2.
• We compute and store a hash for each file and compare it against existing hashes:
  • If the hash matches an existing file, the user is prompted to choose one of the following options:
    • Upload the existing file (adds to that resource's list).
    • Continue with the newly imported file and create a new resource file (to preserve a complete audit trail of stored information).

2. Select SBH Instance

• A modal is displayed prompting the user to choose an SBH instance to upload to.
• This selection is handled via the modal rather than being embedded directly in the main workflow.

3. Post-Upload Handling

• On successful upload:
  • If the user chose to upload an existing file, the resource information is appended to the existing resource record.
  • If the user proceeded with a new file, a new resource file is created containing the relevant data.

Existing Resource

• Displays “receipts” from previous uploads.
• Includes an "upload again" button that opens a modal to select an SBH instance.
• Upon successful upload, the new information is appended to the existing resource file.

New Resource

1. Create Resource File

• A new resource file is created.
• A modal is displayed with two import options:
  • Import from Existing: Select a file that was previously copied.
  • Import from Computer: Select a new file from the local machine.

2. Select SBH Instance

• A modal is displayed to select the SBH instance for upload.
