Note
To make bulk insertions of content into a database either as one-off tasks or as part of an external orchestration of a workflow, use the MarkLogic Content Pump (mlcp).
To make as-needed insertions of or updates to documents in a database as part of an external client application's business logic, use the MarkLogic REST API.
