I wanted to draw atttention on this section of Dataverse_Manual (link below): https://guides.dataverse.org/en/latest/installation/config.html#id160 Instead the command line should look like this: (validated for localfileArchive) curl -X POST -H "X-Dataverse-key: API_KEY" http://localhost:8080/api/admin/submitDatasetVersionToArchive/:persistentID/Version_Num?persistentID=doi-of_dataset Also a reference from the dataverse-google-group: https://groups.google.com/g/dataverse-community/c/UdGIaPjmKGA/m/2qOwImRIBgAJ
