You can also act against the REST API without an object XML payload at all to create an empty new object, via:
[your-host]:[port]/fedora/objects/[pid] or [your-host]:[port]/fedora/objects/new and then populate it with datastreams via: [your-host]:[port]/fedora/objects/[pid]/datastreams/[dsid] See: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FEDORA35/REST+API#RESTAPI-ingest and https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FEDORA34/REST+API#RESTAPI-addDatastream --- A.
