Is it possible to ingest the metadata of a document first to the archive and then perform streaming upload of document using any reference key provided by the archive during metadata ingest?

We are looking to implement the upload of big size documents with two API's

1. ingestMetadata - (for which the archive may provide any reference id to perform the document upload)

2. ingestDocument

Yes, you can create a node that has no content, set metadata on the new node, get its node reference, then later you can update the node's content stream with the actual file.

Also, if you are doing an import of a lot of data, you might want to take a look at the Bulk File Import Tool.
