Dallas, this is AWESOME. Funnily enough, I too need to look up the archival object by its refid. This is almost literally everything I need.

<div class="">Not sure if this is the best/most appropriate way to do this, but I worked up a prototype for doing something similar to this that grabs an archival object's JSON, creates a new digital object and stores its URI, and then uses the update archival
 object endpoint (POST /repositories/:repo_id/:archival_objects/:id) to repost the archival object with the new instance. The script (that also has some probably irrelevant stuff up top to search for an archival object by its refid) is here: <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_djpillen_bentley-5Fscripts_blob_master_update-5Farchival-5Fobject.py&d=AwMFaQ&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=JgH2YCQ8D3P9-Lm_x4bv3d2CZBYlbx6hxnLFHtfovi8&m=mTC1w7j4SL0FLJQhDu7aWSipl_20tTouhMmmqe-h-1s&s=dE3x7UoGF1uqohcJg-skOipZKdbJwzJ4TqiLeSIeZUo&e=" class="">https://github.com/djpillen/bentley_scripts/blob/master/update_archival_object.py</a></div>

Hi everyone,<br class="">
<br class="">
This may be a dumb question. I’m trying to wade in from the shallow end.<br class="">
<br class="">
I have a list of digital objects that I want to create in ArchivesSpace and a list of which archival objects they should become instances of. I’m sitting down to write a script to start doing this work, and I’m wondering if this is possible — if there’s actually
 an endpoint that will let me do this. I see that I can post children digital objects to already-existing digital objects (POST /repositories/:repo_id/digital_object_components/:id/children), but I don’t see an explicit way to add digital objects as instances
 of archival objects.<br class="">
<br class="">
Thoughts? How would others approach this work?<br class="">
