SharePoint 2013 REST API：触发内容管理器规则

Question

I am trying to upload files to a Drop Off Library in SharePoint and then adding metadata to the files to have them properly routed through the Content Organizer. However, after I add all the required column metadata for the content type, the file doesn't get routed or moved.

I can then go to SharePoint through my browser and simply hit submit on the file's metadata page, and the Content Organizer rules are fired.

I am looking for a way to fire the Content Organizer rules through the REST API.

I know that when viewing Content Organizer settings via SharePoint, that there is a Submission Points section. Are you hitting this exact page with your API call? If you navigate to Site Settings | Site Administration (heading) | Content Organizer Settings you can view the page.

For more information about the Content Organizer, see here:
