URL Syntax /objects/ [{pid}| new] ? [label] [format] [encoding] [namespace] [ownerId] [logMessage] [ignoreMime] [state] HTTP Method POST HTTP Response 201 Request Content text/xml Parameters Name | Description | Default | Options |
|---|
{pid} | persistent identifier of the object to be created | new (see below) | | new | indicator that either a new PID should be created for this object or that the PID to be used is encoded in the XML included as the body of the request | | | label | the label of the new object | | | format | the XML format of the object to be ingested | info:fedora/fedora-system:FOXML-1.1, info:fedora/fedora-system:FOXML-1.0, info:fedora/fedora-system:METSFedoraExt-1.1, info:fedora/fedora-system:METSFedoraExt-1.0, info:fedora/fedora-system:ATOM-1.1, info:fedora/fedora-system:ATOMZip-1.1 | | encoding | the encoding of the XML to be ingested. If this is specified, and given as anything other than UTF-8, you must ensure that the same encoding is declared in the XML. For example, if you specify "ISO-88591" as the encoding, the XML should start with:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> | UTF-8 | | namespace | the namespace to be used to create a PID for a new empty object; if object XML is included with the request, the namespace parameter is ignored | the default namespace of the repository | | ownerId | the id of the user to be listed at the object owner | | | logMessage | a message describing the activity being performed | | | ignoreMime | indicates that the request should not be checked to ensure that the content is XML prior to attempting an ingest. This is provided to allow for client applications which do not indicate the correct Content-Type when submitting a request. | false | true, false | XML file as request content | file to be ingested as a new object | | | | state | the state of the object: active ("A") or inactive ("I") | active | A, I |
Notes Executing this request with no request content will result in the creation of a new, empty object (with either the specified PID or a system-assigned PID). The new object will contain only a minimal DC datastream specifying the dc:identifier of the object.
