Bulk update asset description

I have a requirement where I need to bulk upload the asset description (dc:description). I tried using Bulk Editor. But the thing is the node hierarchy is /content/dam/test-project/jpeg/thumbnail-test-image.png/jcr:content/metadata. Here in this metadata node the dc:description property exists.

How shall I target this and do the bulk upload via bulk editor? My requirement is to target all files(jpeg/png) under /content/dam/test-project/jpeg/ and update the dc:description.

 

I tried the following approach but it didn't work.

Hi @saravanan_dharmaraj , yes this works. Thanks! I was putting this in the query parameters. This never crossed my mind actually. Thanks for the help.

 

The Metadata export and import feature also works for these type of requests.
