Want to understand what function(s)/ API(s) are used when database configuration is exported/imported from 8002 port in Marklogic. The purpose is to use these API(s) from QConsole to update database configuration.

There are different admin APIs to update individual configurations e.g. admin:database-set-one-character-searches, admin:database-set-three-character-word-positions - admin database apis ; but I want a single function/API (if there is any) to update the DB configuration as in case of export/import from 8002 port where while importing XML configuration (which is exported from the same port) is passed and everything is configured in one go.

The admin function API is granular for a reason. Also, it cannot be guaranteed you can make every needed change with just one QConsole script. Certain steps need to be finished before others can build atop, like you need to create roles before you can assign them to users. Other changes require server restart, like memory settings, and port changes.

Your best bet is the Configuration Management REST API, as described here:

HTH!

    `pkg:database-configuration` (deprecated MarkLogic 9 onward) can be used to export the database configuration. `configuration management APIs` can also be used from QConsole - `cma:generate-config` and `cma:apply-config`; The `Configuration Management REST API` is equally helpful.
