@subash sharma

Please refer to the "Associating Trait Instances to Entities" section under this technical user guide usage guide provided here: http://atlas.incubator.apache.org/AtlasTechnicalUserGuide.pdf

This will give an example of how to associate a trait/tag to an entity using REST API.

@Ayub Khan Sort of, I am able to associate one entity/attibute to a trait at a time and to do that i am doing an iterative process and the process is time consuming. Can't we bulk upload/update tagged columns/entities in one go.

For example :

guid_1 public

guid_2 private

guid_3 public

please let me know the curl command to do bulk update. I have gone through the whole Doc, Haven't found any!
