bulk operation

Question

Hi,I want to perform CRUD bulk operation on asset with a single action via API call using postman. How can this be achieved? Thanks in advance

1. We can achieve this using AEM servlet(post request) via postman .

Steps are defined here https://aem4beginner.blogspot.com/access-aem-servlet-in-postman

and we need to add custom logic to perform bulk operation in that servlet.

2. We can use groovy script to perform bulk operation.

Are you planning to publish assets after CRUD bulk operation?

I have tried to execute below operation on asset from postman-

Update asset metadata

Updates the asset metadata properties. If you update any property in the dc: namespace, the API updates the same property in the jcr namespace. The API does not sync the properties under the two namespaces.

Request: PUT /api/assets/myfolder/myAsset.png -H"Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"class":"asset", "properties":{"jcr:title":"My Asset"}}'

Here is my postman entries with status code:200 -

property got added at jcr:content node as shown below -

Here I am able to update only one asset.

To perform bulk CRUD operation, I feel we can have custom logic to perform bulk operation from servlet if it is essential to use postman.

@arunpatidar , please correct me.
