All metadata object types are based on a common template.
The keys in this template are necessary to uniquely identify the object and store it in a database. Most of these keys are automatically generated by the application.
Syntax example
{ "id": "abcdefgh12345678", "name": "my_view", "type": "view", "title": "My view", "description": "In this view, you'll see a lot of interesting things.", "origin": "https://secure.clevermaps.io/rest/projects/$projectId/md/datasets?name=view_name", "content": { ... }, "accessInfo": { "createdAt": "2017-01-01T00:00:00Z", "createdBy": "tomas.schmidl@clevermaps.io", "modifiedAt": "2017-01-02T00:00:00Z" "modifiedBy": "tomas.schmidl@clevermaps.io" }, "links": [ { "rel": "self", "href": "/rest/projects/$projectId/md/views/abcdefgh12345678" } ] } |
