​
Create or Update (PUT)

Use PUT /v1/services/storageServices instead of POST to perform an upsert. If a storage service with the same fullyQualifiedName already exists, it will be updated; otherwise, a new service is created. The request body is the same as POST. 
curl -X PUT "{base_url}/api/v1/services/storageServices" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ ... same body as POST ... }'
PUT will not return a 409 conflict error if the entity already exists — it will update the existing entity instead.

​
Bulk Create or Update (PUT)

Use PUT /v1/services/storageServices/bulk to create or update multiple storage services in a single request. The request body is an array of create request objects. 
curl -X PUT "{base_url}/api/v1/services/storageServices/bulk" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '[
    { "name": "s3_datalake", "serviceType": "S3", "connection": { "config": {} } },
    { "name": "gcs_analytics", "serviceType": "GCS", "connection": { "config": {} } }
  ]'
