Hi @shahid_siddiqui_04,Like @aanchal-sikka already described, you should use Replicator java API.There are two options in your case:Iterate through all elements in your list and run replicate method for each item.@Referenceprivate Replicator replicator;// place for other codeList allPaths = allPagesPathWhichNeedToPublish();Session session = resourceResolver.adaptTo(Session.class);for(String path : allPaths) { try { replicator.replicate(session, ReplicationActionType.ACTIVATE, path, null); } catch (ReplicationException e) { e.printStackTrace(); }}Use dedicate replicate method, that is consuming array of paths, in this case you do not have to iterate through the collection in your code - this option looks much cleaner and better utilizes api capabilities@Referenceprivate Replicator replicator;// place for other codeList allPaths = allPagesPathWhichNeedToPublish();// converting to array as this is format accepted by replicatorString [] paths = allPaths.toArray(new String[allPaths.size()])try { replicator.replicate(resourceResolver.adaptTo(Session.class), ReplicationActionType.ACTIVATE, paths, null);} catch (ReplicationException e) { e.printStackTrace();}Make sure that resource resolver object you will be suing has a proper level of permission to replicate pages. You can consider to create proper service user and create resource resolver using this user, to have full control of permission set.https://medium.com/@toimrank/aem-service-user-mapping-and-resourceresolver-bd4a15d8cff2https://sourcedcode.com/blog/aem/create-system-service-users-in-aem-6-5-with-code-configurations

Hello @shahid_siddiqui_04

We can use Replicator API to publish pages

create a Replicator instance by using @Reference annotation.

@Reference
private Replicator replicator;

Get a session

ResourceResolver resolver = request.getResourceResolver();
javax.jcr.Session session = resolver.adaptTo(Session.class);

Replicate the page by looping through the list

    try {
             replicator.replicate(session, ReplicationActionType.ACTIVATE, path);
             log.info("Page activated: ", path);

    } catch (ReplicationException e) {
            log.info("Replication failed "+e.getMessage(), path);
    }
