Data Feeds

Create a data feed

Creates a data feed in the project with one transformation per event type.

Mangrove drafts a transformation script for each event type in the background (script_status is generating until then). The new feed has no schema and no sources, so not_ready_message is set until you define a schema with PATCH /projects/{project_id}/data_feeds/{data_feed_id}/update_schema. To upload files through this API, attach an endpoint source with POST /data_feeds/{data_feed_friendly_id}/sources. The header row is set with the schema, through headers_row_number on update_schema. Requires the read:project and write:data_feed token scopes.

Authorizations

Authorization

string

header

required

Path Parameters

project_id

string

required

The project's friendly ID (e.g. prj_aBcD1234eFgH5678).

Body

application/json

data_feed

object

required

Show child attributes

Response

Data feed created

A data feed. List rows omit each transformation's script_content and each source's config; single-feed responses include them.

string

The data feed's friendly ID.

Example:

"datafd_aBcD1234eFgH5678"

name

string

Example:

"Daily Production Data"

description

string | null

Example:

"Imports daily production metrics"

headers_row_number

integer

Row number (1-based) containing column headers. Rows above are ignored during ingestion. 1 until a schema sets another value.

Example:

1

setup_error

string | null

Why automatic setup could not build the schema (for example an unreadable sample file), or null.

not_ready_message

string | null

Why the feed cannot accept data yet, or null when it is ready. A new feed reports "Transformation scripts are still being generated" until its scripts are drafted, and "Schema not defined" until a schema exists.

Example:

null

schema_fields

object[]

The columns of the current schema. Empty until a schema is defined.

Show child attributes

event_types

object[]

The event types the feed's active transformations create.

Show child attributes

transformations

object[]

Active (unarchived) transformations, one per event type.

Show child attributes

sources

object[]

Show child attributes

ui_url

string<uri>

Link to the data feed's page in the app.

Example:

"https://app.gomangrove.com/nexus/prj_aBcD1234eFgH5678/data-inputs/data-feeds/datafd_aBcD1234eFgH5678"

created_at
