Push values to DCI with API

[MarcusH]

Hi,

Is functionality to push values to push DCI implemented in current API 4.2.395?

[Filipp Sudanov]

The request should be:

Request type: POST
Request path: API_HOME/pushData

It's possible to use one of two data formats:

1. If you need to send just one DCI:

{
      nodeId : 10,
      dciId : 20,
      value : "Value"
}

2. If you are sending data for multiple DCIs

data :
[
  {
      nodeId : 10,
      dciId : 20,
      value : "Value"
  },
  {
      nodeName : "Node name",
      dciName : "DCI name",
      value : "Value"
  }
]

You can use both names and IDs of objects and DCIs.

If both name and ID are set, ID has priority

Works great now thanks, happy for ability to use name instead of id makes what i do alot easier.
Just had an issue with name until i got that name is "Metric" now on DCI

Yes, we are moving toward term "metric" in the UI (and also in NXSL at some point)
