4. Repositories

The details we need to know

• Go to ArchivesSpace REST API docs
  • We’re interested in “Create a Repository”
• You may see an example curl request on the right
  • the API docs are in a bit of flux with the v1.5.x releases

    curl -H "X-ArchivesSpace-Session: $SESSION"
    -d {
       "jsonmodel_type": "repository",
       "name": "Description: 11",
       "repo_code": "ASPACE REPO 2 -- 631024",
       "org_code": "970UV228G",
       "image_url": "http://www.example-3.com",
       "url": "http://www.example-4.com"
    }
    'http://localhost:8089/repositories'

(the bit after the “-d” is what we’re interested in.)
