Latest Data API
This opCharts API provides access to the Latest Data collection in a JSON format. The latest_data collection holds the raw values collected in the "data" section and all "stats" data in the "derived_data" section, the properties found in these sections are dynamic and are defined by the model used for the node. Each document in the collection has a link to its associated inventory_id and a subconcept array. Each entry in the subconcepts array holds a document with the subconcept name as well as a data and derived_data sub documents. There is a single record per inventory_id and the record holds the most recent readings/calculations for that piece of inventory.
The Latest Data API is available in opCharts from version 4.8.0
Authentication is required to access all methods below. See opCharts REST API Reference.

API Routes
Request Method | Operation | URL Example | id required | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
GET | read list | /server/omk/opCharts/v2/ | n | Returns a list of all the latest_data records (latest_data id and node_uuid), use properties modifier to add more interesting information to the output Paginated |
GET | read one | /server/omk/opCharts/v2/ | y | Returns the details of the latest_data with the given id. Use this to find what interesting properties can be added to a properties filter |
GET | read list | / | y | Returns a list of all the latest data records (latest_data id and node_uuid), matching given node_uuid Paginated |
Request Modifiers (query parameters)
The properties request modifier tells opCharts which properties you would like listed, query limits the requested resources to only those that match all criteria given. This collection can paginated, it is also limited to 25 results by default (this could be subject to change in future opCharts versions) use the limit query parameter to request more nodes
Not all requests will use all request modifiers.
Query Parameter | Possible Values |
---|---|
properties | Array of property names. If provided only the properties specified will be returned (instead of the whole document). eg: By default the nodes UUID is returned by default if no properties are given |
page | (int) Which page of the requested document to return, defaults to 1 |
limit | (int) How many results to return per page, defaults to 25 |
filter | Array of key=value pairs, but coded in an array. Applied to the list of results in the order they are given. If an application key is provided that will be applied first. eg: |
sort | -1 | 1 : sort the response with id ascending or descending. |
Examples of how to use the request modifiers can be found in the response blocks below. In general, the queries will look something like this:
GET of opcharts/v2/latest_data for List
GET /omk/opCharts/v2/latest_data
You will get a list of all the Latest Data records in your database.
