I solved it.

I needed to call

$upload->setProperties($properties);‍

$properties = $upload->getProperties();

thats right … also a quick possibility is to edit the "NamespaceMap.php" and add your Custom Content Model namespace and prefix like


private $namespaceMap = array(
"d"        => "http://www.alfresco.org/model/dictionary/1.0",
"sc"      => "http://www.someco.com/model/content/1.0",
….
);
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

And then you can edit properties on a Node via the __get and __set like:


$Node->sc_section = "ENGL316001";
$Node->cm_title = "My Title";‍‍‍
