How to post json array in rest service which is using stream

[ksuthar]

Hi everyone,

I have create a service which take input json and save into stream. For this I have created a stream and data_shape.

script

// tags:TAGS

var tags = new Array();

// timestamp:DATETIME

var timestamp = new Date();

// values:INFOTABLE(Datashape: rok_data_shape)

var values = Things["rok_stream"].CreateValues();

values.id = id; //NUMBER

values.name = name; //STRING

// location:LOCATION

var location = new Object();

location.latitude = 0;

location.longitude = 0;

location.elevation = 0;

location.units ="WGS84";

var params = {

  tags : tags,

  timestamp : timestamp,

  source : me.name,

  values : values,

  location : location

};

// AddStreamEntry(tags:TAGS, timestamp:DATETIME, source:STRING("me.name"), values:INFOTABLE(rok_data_shape), location:LOCATION):NOTHING

Things["rok_stream"].AddStreamEntry(params);

My service is working fine. with input { "id" : 1, "name": "Foo"} and data save in stream. But I want give multiple record in single rest call. example - I want to post [{ "id" : 1, "name": "Foo"}, { "id" : 1, "name": "Bar"}].  How I can post json array to the service.

When you retrieve a JSON Array, Thingworx will automatically add array

So you'll need to do: postedData.array.id something like that.

now if you are invoking and posting to Thingworx I believe it does it as well, if not, then of course just do postedData.id
