API Endpoints
The API Endpoints module enables efficient data integration by managing customizable endpoints with advanced filtering, aggregation, and connectivity options.
The API Endpoints module in AlphaX Cloud serves as a dynamic interface for managing and accessing data streams through customized API endpoints. It is essential for developers and integrators to pull data efficiently and securely for various operational needs, ensuring flexibility and reliability in data consumption.
Main Features
Endpoint Listings The module provides a tabular list of all created API endpoints, showing critical attributes like:
Entity: The organization or project associated with the endpoint.
Type: Specifies the endpoint type (e.g., Conduit V7).
Name: The custom name assigned to the endpoint for identification.
URL: Displays the endpoint URL to facilitate integration with external systems.
Create New Endpoint The Create Endpoint modal guides users through the setup of new API endpoints. Key configurable parameters include:
Endpoint Name: A descriptive identifier for the endpoint.
Type: Endpoint type selection, such as Conduit V7.
Entity: Linking the endpoint to an organization or project.
Tag Filter: Filters data by tags for granular control.
Data Time Range: Defines the period for data retrieval (e.g., last 24 hours).
Limit: Specifies the number of data points fetched.
Timezone: Configures the timezone for data relevance.
Group and Aggregate By: Enables data aggregation for efficient usage.
Edit API Endpoint This feature allows modifications to existing API endpoints through the Edit Modal, where users can:
Adjust endpoint configurations.
Update filters, time ranges, or aggregation options.
Save changes seamlessly without disrupting existing operations.
