For example, can be sth wrong with your content type (if u send XML, u need to set content type to application/xml) or sth wrong with the xml you are sending out. One way to find out is to take a look into unit tests included in guvnor and try them out. For example, u can find both example codes updating asset using Atom and XML from this test: https://github.com/droolsjbpm/guvnor/blob/5.5.x/guvnor-webapp-drools/src/... Cheers, Jervis

I am afraid "versionNumber" is a read-only property, it is controlled by JCR version system, it is changed when you check in an asset. You dont set this version number directly. On the other updating "disabled " through REST api is not supported in 5.5. Please raise a jira if you wish this is added in the future releases. BTW, you can take a look into source, then you can understand which metadata property is supported and which is not: Below is code snippet copied from https://github.com/droolsjbpm/guvnor/blob/5.5.x/guvnor-webapp-core/src/ma... @PUT @Path("{packageName}/assets/{assetName}") @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_ATOM_XML) public void updateAssetFromAtom(@PathParam("packageName") String packageName, @PathParam("assetName") String assetName, Entry assetEntry) { try { AtomAssetMetadata assetMetadata = assetEntry.getAnyOtherJAXBObject(AtomAssetMetadata.class); //Throws RulesRepositoryException if the package or asset does not exist AssetItem ai = rulesRepository.loadModule(packageName).loadAsset(assetName); //Update asset ai.checkout(); ai.updateTitle(assetEntry.getTitle()); ai.updateDescription(assetEntry.getSummary()); if (assetMetadata.getFormat() != null) { ai.updateFormat(assetMetadata.getFormat()); } //REVISIT: What if the client really wants to set content to ""? if (assetEntry.getContent().getText() != null && !"".equals(assetEntry.getContent().getText())) { ai.updateContent(assetEntry.getContent().getText()); } if (assetMetadata.getCategories() != null && assetMetadata.getCategories().length > 0) { ai.updateCategoryList(assetMetadata.getCategories()); } if (assetMetadata.getState() != null) { ai.updateState(assetMetadata.getState()); } ai.updateValid(assetValidator.validate(ai)); if (AssetFormats.affectsBinaryUpToDate(ai.getFormat())) { ModuleItem pkg = ai.getModule(); pkg.updateBinaryUpToDate(false); RuleBaseCache.getInstance().remove(pkg.getUUID()); } ai.checkin("Check-in (summary): " + assetEntry.getSummary()); rulesRepository.save(); } catch (JAXBException e) { throw new WebApplicationException(e); } catch (RuntimeException e) { throw new WebApplicationException(e); } } @PUT @Path("{packageName}/assets/{assetName}") @Consumes({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML}) public void updateAssetFromJAXB( @PathParam("packageName") String packageName, @PathParam("assetName") String assetName, Asset asset) { try { //Throws RulesRepositoryException if the package or asset does not exist AssetItem ai = rulesRepository.loadModule(packageName).loadAsset(assetName); /* Update asset */ ai.checkout(); ai.updateTitle(asset.getTitle()); ai.updateDescription(asset.getDescription()); ai.updateValid(assetValidator.validate(ai)); if (AssetFormats.affectsBinaryUpToDate(ai.getFormat())) { ModuleItem pkg = ai.getModule(); pkg.updateBinaryUpToDate(false); RuleBaseCache.getInstance().remove(pkg.getUUID()); } ai.checkin(asset.getMetadata().getCheckInComment()); rulesRepository.save(); } catch (RuntimeException e) { throw new WebApplicationException(e); } } As you can see, only title, description, checkinComment are supported if you use application/xml content type. if you use Atom, there are more supported attributes, include: title, description, checkinComment, format, state, categories.
