Q:

Is it possible to add properties to multiple files after they have been uploaded to artifactory?

As the title says. Due to a lack of understanding about how best to query files in artifactory I now have a situation where I have a few hundred files I need to add the same properties to. 
Can this be done in bulk?
the folder structure looks like this:   
repository
  |
  |- main folder
      |
      |- type
          |
          |- language1
              |
              |-sub-folder1
              |-sub-folder2
                 |-file1
                 |-file2
                 ...
              ...
          ...

Each sub-folder can have around 5 files, each language folder can have many sub-folders.

A:

Sure it is.
You have two main options.
The first one is to use the Set Item Properties REST API on the relevant folder with the "recursiveProperties=1".
The second option, which I believe is better, will be to use the JFrog CLI to set properties on existing artifacts. This options will provide you with the ability to define a more complex logic on setting the properties.
