  • 'attributes.value2' (optional): second expected value triggering an alarm.
  • 'timegap' (optional): time that must pass for an alarm to be triggered.
  • 'timegapunit' (optional): time metric for an alert.

GET /alert/{id}

The GET /alert/{id} endpoint provides the alert by its id.

  "timegapunit": "MINUTES",
  "atributeConstraints": [
    {
      "name": "temperature",
      "operator": "EQUAL_TO",
      "value": "10",
      "value2": "20"
    }
  ]
}
  • 'name' (required): name of the alert.
  • 'type' (required): type of alert; there are two types: 'EXPRESSION' and 'LAST_COMMUNICATION'.

  • 'severity' (required): severity of the alert; there are three levels: 'CRITICAL', 'MAJOR', and 'MINOR'.
  • 'timegap' (required if the alert is of type LAST_COMMUNICATION): time that must pass for an alarm to be triggered.
  • 'timegapunit' (required if the alert is of type LAST_COMMUNICATION): time metric for an alert.
  • 'attributeConstraint.name' (required if it is an alert of type EXPRESSION): name of the expression triggering an alarm.
  • 'attributeConstraint.operator' (required if it is an alert of type EXPRESSION): operator of the expression triggering an alarm; the following types exist: 'EQUAL_TO', 'GREATER_THAN', 'LESS_THAN', 'GREATER_THAN_OR_EQUAL', 'LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL', 'NOT_EQUAL', 'BETWEEN'.
  • 'attributeConstraint.value' (required if it is an alert of type EXPRESSION): expected value triggering an alarm.
  • 'attributeConstraint.value2' (optional): second expected value triggering an alarm.

PUT /alert/{id}

The PUT /alert/{id} endpoint serves to modify an alert by its id. The data that can be modified are as follows:

  • 'priority' (required): priority of the alert; there are three levels: 'CRITICAL', 'MAJOR', and 'MINOR'.
  • 'severity' (required): severity of the alert; there are three levels: 'CRITICAL', 'MAJOR', and 'MINOR'.
  • 'attributes.name' (required if it is an alert of type EXPRESSION): name of the expression triggering an alarm.
  • 'attributes.operator' (required if it is an alert of type EXPRESSION): operator of the expression triggering an alarm; the following types exist: 'EQUAL_TO', 'GREATER_THAN', 'LESS_THAN', 'GREATER_THAN_OR_EQUAL', 'LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL', 'NOT_EQUAL', 'BETWEEN'.
  • 'attributes.value' (required if it is an alert of type EXPRESSION): expected value triggering an alarm.
  • 'attributes.value2' (optional): second expected value triggering an alarm.
  • 'timegap' (required if the alert is of type LAST_COMMUNICATION): time that must pass for an alarm to be triggered.
  • 'timegapunit' (required if the alert is of type LAST_COMMUNICATION): time metric for an alert.

PUT /alert/{id}/changeStateActive

The PUT /alert/{id}/changeStateActive endpoint serves to change the state of the alert. There are three states for alerts: 'activated', 'disabled', or 'discharged'.

PUT /alert/updateDevice
