[Midas] web API to save/put data?

[Michael Grauer]

Hi Mona,

If you append /api to your Midas URL you can see a listing of API methods,
along with parameters and some documentation.


The basic structures in Midas are communities, folders, items and
bitstreams.

You can create a community or folder with these calls:

*midas.community.create*
*midas.folder.create*

To upload files, either create an item or upload to an existing item.

Create an item with

*midas.item.create*

To upload to an existing item, first get an upload token with

*midas.upload.generatetoken*

then using the upload token you can upload a single bitstream to the item
with

*midas.upload.perform*


You can upload more bitstreams to the same item (or to a different item) by
further calls to *midas.upload.generatetoken* and *midas.upload.perform *.

Good Luck,
Mike
