Eyer Push API - test & validate your custom Eyer mapping
- Marius Wergeland Storsten
POST https://eyer-prod-api-data-ne-stage.azurewebsites.net/api/mapping/test
Add an “authenticate” field to the request header, with you apiTokenPush as value.
Also add “Content-Type” = “application/json”
To understand how you create a mapping from your custom data format to the Eyer internal format, please see the following article.
Once you have your mapping and output ready, you can test the mapping. As a response, you will get the Eyer internal format back with your own data, so you can validate the data structure (Eyer will have a “node → metrics” structure as internal format).
Request body main structure:
{
"mapping": {
The JSON mapping goes in here
},
"data": [
The JSON test output goes in here
]
}
Example request with “mapping” and “data” populated. You can test this example as a request to have a look at the response and the Eyer internal format.
