About

Examples

All of the example requests are written using curl with bash. The variables service and user are expected to be set. Any Guid's referenced need to be substituted for locally applicable IDs.

Example of setting the environment variables:

export [email protected]:bca2e6ae-d0c2-4833-9fcd-9446076442a5 export service=http://10.10.0.30

Request Structure

Requests are composed of several components. The URL is structured as protocol://address:port/path?query. POST requests can optionally contain data that is not part of the URL, GET requests can not. The protocol will be http or https depending on your services configuration. The address:port is identical to the one configured for use with GigaFox's web service. The path is always one or more static nouns. Dynamic nouns, such as IDs, and verbs, are in the query. GigaFox's REST API is structured that all requests getting data use GET requests. All requests to modify data use POST requests and return a ResultModel.

Entitlements

Each user is assigned roles with varying degrees of entitlements, allowing users access to certain features, functions, and actions. Once roles are assigned, users will only have access to the entitlements determined by assigned role(s). A full list of entitlements can be found in the Users section of the GigaFox user guide.

Authentification

Authentication is performed using BASIC http authentication with the user's API token as the password.

Metrics Requests

GET /Device/Metrics?id={string}&table={string}

Query the device metrics database for specified metrics for a given device.

Entitlement: Device list
Result file

Metrics are gathered passively in the background for all devices managed by GigaFox, unless explicitly disabled. The metrics collected are to the best available for the given device which has some variance as documented. The metrics are stored in an InfluxDB service, which has some implications as documented.

Query:
Field Type Description
id GigaFox ID, serial number, or vendor ID The ID of the device to query metrics for.
table string

Tables to select fields from. Formatted as a comma delineated list of measurement names. Table names are listed in the metrics schema.

Example: &table=event, &table=event,log

Warning: Referencing more than one table in a single query has a severe performance impact in InfluxDB.

fields string? A list of fields to select. If excluded, all fields from the referenced tables will be returned. Referencing specific fields can drastically decrease the response size. Formatted as a comma delineated list of fields. Field names are listed in the metrics schema.
aggr string?

A list of functions to perform on the referenced fields. When used, "fields" becomes a required argument. Formatted as a comma delineated list. Each function is implicitly given each listed field as the first argument. The function list is shown in influxdata.

Example: Get the max aggregate of 2 fields. &aggr=max&fields=fieldA,fieldB performs the query as SELECT max(fieldA), max(fieldB)

Example: Get the max aggregate and mean of 2 fields. &aggr=max,mean&fields=fieldA,fieldB performs the query as SELECT max(fieldA), max(fieldB), mean(fieldA), mean(fieldB)

marker string? The name of a marker. When used, the results are limited to the intermediate periods for the most recent specified markers. The marker session is automatically inserted for the periods of time when a device is retained. Custom markers can be inserted using the startmarker and stopmarker API actions. When a marker is specified, start and end are ignored.
Example: Get the metrics for the last 5 sessions.
&marker=session&markerLimit=5
markerLimit int? The number of number of marker entries to reference. If not specific, defaults to 1. Having a markerLimit greater than 1 produces multiple timelines in a single result and may not be directly processable. This is a side effect of InfluxDB.
markerOffset int? The number of markers to skip. For example, if markerLimit is 1, and markerOffset is 3, then the 4th previous marker entry will be used.
limit int? Limit the result rows to the specified limit. If not set, there is no limit. limit can be used with offset to "page" results in smaller portions. limit is required if marker, start, and end are not present.
offset int? The result row to start at. Can only be specified if limit is also specified.
start DateTime?
end DateTim? The time range to limit the query to. Both do not need to be specified. These values are ignored if marker is present.
groupBy string? A field name to group the results by.
orderBy string? A field name to order the results by. Due to limitations in InfluxDB, at present only the time field is supported. An ordering direction can be specified after a space in the field name. Ascending is assumed, desc can be specified manually.
Example: Order by time descending. &orderBy=time+desc
format string? The format of the result. Possible values are csv and default. If CSV is not given, default is assumed. default is a pass-through of the JSON returned by InfluxDB. This permits any InfluxDB result processing tool to be used. Documentation of the format is available on their site: influxdata csv is a transcoding of the JSON to CSV format. CSV is beneficial in it may be less CPU intensive to process,could consume less bandwidth, and has compatibility with any CSV processing application.
filename string? The filename for the returned document. If not specified, the default is "metrics-" followed by the device's name. The extension is automatically set according to the specified format.
timeout int? The optional number of seconds to allow the query to run. The default is 120 seconds. This may need to be adjusted for more complex or larger queries.

Examples:

Get the mean CPU usage during for the last usage session for device ID 1c32079b-53bc-4bc4-bcf6-71444a7e6bb6:
curl -u $user "$service/apiv1/Device/Metrics?id=1c32079b-53bc-4bc4-bcf6-71444a7e6bb6&marker=session&aggr=mean&table=sample&fields=Load"

POST /Device/Metrics?action=startmarker&id={string}&name={string}

Start a metrics marker. The marker must be ended using stopmarker. The marker's timespan is represented by when the startmarker and stopmarker calls were made. Markers are used as named reference points into the metrics timeline. Multiple calls to startmarker can be made before calling stopmarker given each call has a unique name.

Entitlement: Device list
Result: ResultModel

Query:
Field Type Description
id GigaFox ID, serial number, or vendor ID The ID of the device.
name string The name of the marker. There are no character limitations.

Async Requests

GET /Async?id={Guid}

Query an async result's state. See Async for more information.

Entitlement: none
Result: AsyncStatus<T>

Query:
Field Type Description
id Guid The async ID.

Async

Some requests take longer than a HTTP request can be held open. These requests return an AsyncResponse. The status of the request must then be polled using Get /Async.

Get Async will return a false value in isComplete until either an error or success occurs, then isComplete will be true, and data will be populated with the result. Once a completed status is returned, the async ID is invalidated and can no longer be used. Async results that have not been polled in 5 minutes are invalidated.

General

Field Type Description
pretty bool? When set to true, data returns with line breaks and whitespace.

Data Types

Any data type with a question mark postfix is optional. Generic types are represented with less than greater than brackets. For example, ResultModel<Guid> would be a ResultModel with a data property of Guid.

Guid

All Guids are v4 uuids. Most requests in GigaFox refer to objects internally by an assigned Guid. They should be treated no differently than strings.

Example: 1c32079b-53bc-4bc4-bcf6-71444a7e6bb6

bool
A boolean value.
bool results are always returned as true or false.
Requests accept boolean values in any case.

Examples:

  • True
  • true

String

Text. A sequence of characters.

int

A 32bit signed numerical value. Ranges are -2147483648 to 2147483647.

long

A 64bit signed numerical value. Ranges are -9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807.

DateTime

Represents a date and time combined.
DateTime results are always given as fully qualified ISO 8601 combined date time stamps in UTC.

Example: 2016-08-10T08:04:00Z
Requests accept any format which is valid for .net's DateTime.Parse. The timezone is presumed the server's timezone unless specified.

Examples:

  • 05/01/2016 14:57:32.8
  • 2016-05-01 14:57:32.8
  • 2016-05-01T14:57:32.8375298-04:00
  • 5/01/2016

TimeSpan

TimeSpans are returned as the total number of seconds as a decimal.
Example: 550000.0
