Asynchronous Data Load

Entry Point /ws/public/data/load
Access Public (default). Configurable to Private
Http Method POST
Accepts CSV, XLSX, SDMX-ML, SDMX-EDI (any format for which there is a Data Reader)
Compression Zip files supported, if loading from URL gzip responses supported
Content-Type

1. multipart/form-data (if attaching file) – the attached file must be in field name of uploadFile

2. application/text or application/xml (if submitting data in the body of the POST)

Response Format JSON
Response Statuses

200 - Data file recieved

400 - Trasformation could not be performed (either an unreadable dataset, or unresolvable reference to a required structure)

401 - Unauthorized (if access has been restricted)

500 - Server Error

Response

The response to a data load is a token, which can be used in subsequent calls to track the data load and validation process and, once validation is complete, the token can be used to perform actions such as a pulish, obtain validation report, export in a different format, or export with mapping.

{
  "Success" : true,
   "uid"    : "unique token"
}


Load Status

Entry Point /ws/public/data/loadStatus
Access Public (default). Configurable to Private
Http Method GET
Response Format JSON

Query Parameters

uid Unique identifier for the loaded dataset, returned from the data load operation


Load Status Response

The response is a validation report, to either indicate validation success or validation with errors.

The report Status indicates how far into the validation process the server has reached. The following table shows the various stages:

Status Description
Initialising Initial status
Analysing The dataset is being analysed for series and obs count, and which dsd's it references
Validating The dataset is being validated
Complete The dataset validation process has finished, there may/man not be errors
Consolidating The dataset is being consolidated, duplicate series and observations are being merged into one final dataset
IncorrectDSD The dataset references a DSD that can not be used to validate the data
InvalidRef The dataset references a DSD/Dataflow/Provision that does not exist in the Registry
MissingDSD The dataset does not not reference any structure so the system can not read the dataset
Error The dataset can not be read at all


Export

Entry Point /ws/public/data/download
Access Public (default). Configurable to Private
Http Method GET
Response Format Determined by Accept Header

Query Parameters

Query Parmeter Format Description
uid string Unique identifier for the loaded dataset, returned from the data load operation
datasetIndex integer If multiple datasets are in the data file, identifies which one to export, zero indexed
map string URN of Dataflow or DataStucture to map to, there must be a Structure Map which describes the mapping from the source to target
zip boolean (default is false) Zips the respone
includeMetrics boolean (default is false) Include Metrics in the response see Data Transformation
unmapped boolean (default is false) If the map parameter is supplied, and some series or observation can not be mapped, the unmapped data will be included in either the zip file (if zip is true) or in a multipart-form boundry (if zip is false)
