Subject Json Format on Rest API

Lynn_ — Wed, 28 May 2014 10:54:42 GMT

Hi,

I want to make a call onto the REST API to create some documents but I am unsure what format I should provide for the subjects (the only examples I can find online are empty lists, like the one below).

"properties": {
/> "dc:title": "title", "dc:description":"Description", "dc:subjects": []
/> }

Can you please provide me with the format to populate subjects?

Thanks, Lynn

Hello,

the dc:subjects property is an array of string, so you just have to use the JSON array notation like

"dc:subject":["art","litterature"]

If you want to see what is the correct representation for other types, you can change the data in nuxeo DM and query the doc with the REST API : then you'll get the correct format
