Distribution Creation using uploading image in bulk using SDL Media Manager Service

Question

While bulk uploading images in Media Manager using SDL media manager, we are able to create Asset and Program but not able to create Distribution even after setting data.DistributionCreation=DistributionCreationOptions.OneDistributionPerItem.

Please review below code that i am using:

UploadInfoData data = new UploadInfoData();
                data.DistributionCreation=DistributionCreationOptions.OneDistributionPerItem;
                data.IsIncludedInGalleries = true;
                data.MakeAvailableForDownload = true;
                data.MakeAvailableForWebPublishing = true;
                data.IsRoyaltyFree = true;
                data.ProgramCreation = ProgramCreationOptions.OneProgramPerItem;
                mediaManagerService = new MediaManager2011Client("FederationEndpointHttps");
                string uploadUrl = mediaManagerService.GetUploadUrl(folderId, assetTypeId, tags, keywords, data);

                var response=new WebClient().UploadFile(uploadUrl, fullPathToFileToUpload);

Answer 1

Please make sure you are setting the correct Outlet Id. If you know the outlet's name, here is a method to return the equivalent id.

private static long GetOutletId(IMediaManager2011 mediaManagerClient)
{
    // This returns the list of outlets
    IEnumerable<ItemData> outletList = mediaManagerClient.GetList(ItemTypes.All, 0, 
            ItemTypes.Outlet, GetListResultLevel.Minimal) as IEnumerable<ItemData>;
    foreach (var outlet in outletList)
    {
        if (String.Equals(outlet.Name, Options.MediaManagerOutlet))
        {
            log.Info("Media Manager outlet found");
            return outlet.Id;
        }
    }
    return -1;
}
