return=minimal

return=representation
return=representation; include=" URIs "
return=representation; omit=" URIs "

where minimal indicates that only triples directly related to a resource should be returned, and representation indicates that links to other resources and their properties should also be included. URIs is a space-separate list of LDP defined preferences, and also:

URI	Description
http://fedora.info/definitions/v4/repository#EmbedResources	Embed "child" resources in the returned representation
http://fedora.info/definitions/v4/repository#InboundReferences	Include assertions from other Fedora resources to this node (excluded from representation by default)
http://fedora.info/definitions/v4/repository#ServerManaged	Embed server managed properties in the representation (enabled by default)

Query Parameters:

Status


subtle	true
title	checksum

(Optional) Provide a SHA-1 checksum which will be checked against the uploaded content to ensure error-free transfer.

Status


subtle	true
title	mixin

(Optional; values: fedora:object, fedora:datastream) Explicitly create an object or datastream, instead of inferring it from the request body.

Request Headers:

Status


subtle	true
title	Content-Disposition

(Optional) The filename provided in the content disposition header will be stored in a premis:hasOriginalName property.

Status


subtle	true
title	Content-Type

(Optional) MIME type of the uploaded datastream or RDF content.

CONTENT-LOCATION (Optional) A URI to a resource to use instead of the request body

Note

If the MIME type corresponds to a supported RDF format or SPARQL-Update, the uploaded content will be parsed as RDF and used to populate the child node properties. RDF will be interpreted using the current resource as the base URI (e.g. <> will be expanded to the current URI). Namespaces must be declared in full.

For other MIME types, the uploaded content will be used to create a datastream.

Status


subtle	true
title	Lock-Token

(Optional) A Lock-Token for any locks previously created on resources updated by this operation.

Status


subtle	true
title	SLUG

(Optional) A suggested name for the new child resource, which the repository may ignore.

Note
The slug you provide does not guarantee the location of the created node. Clients must check the Location header for the path to the created resource. For full control over the generated path, see XXX.
