For example API request to 1) create a new user in account #1234 with name, email, etc. 2) create a user but also provide a photo when creating the user 3) upload a document for the user and the document must include an associated collection of meta data (e.g. filename, timestamp, author etc.). The uploaded document must include this meta data before it can be accepted. -- Bill Moseley mose...@hank.org
