The API calls in this section are all used to create and manipulate QiStreams. See .. _Qi Types: https://github.com/osisoft/Qi-Docs/blob/Qi_Edits/docs/Qi_Types.rst for a list of supported QiTypes, a discussion of compound indexes, and general information about QiTypes.
Returns a QiStream object from the specified namespace that matches the specified typeId.
Syntax
Qi Client Library
QiStream GetStream(string conatinerId, string streamId); Task<QiStream> GetStreamAsync (string tenantId, string namespaceId, string streamId);
Http
GET Qi/{tenantId}/{namespaceId}/Streams/{streamId}
Parameters
string tenantID
- The tenant identifier for the request
string namespaceId
- The namespace identifier for the request
typeId
- The ID of the stream to retrieve
Optional parameters
None
- Returns
- A QiStream object for the specified typeId and namespace
- Security
- Allowed by administrator and user accounts
Returns all streams from the specified namespace.
Syntax
Qi Client Library
IEnumerable<QiStream> GetStreams (string tenantId, string namespaceId); Task<IEnumerable<QiStream>> GetStreamsAsync (string tenantId, string namespaceId);
Http
GET Qi/{tenantId}/{namespaceId}/Streams
Parameters
string tenantID
- The tenant identifier for the request
string namespaceId
- The namespace identifier for the request
Optional parameters
None
- Returns
- An Ienumerable object for the specified namespace
- Security
- Allowed by administrator and user accounts
Searches for and returns streams that fit search criteria
Syntax
IEnumerable<QiStream> GetStreams(string searchText, int skip, int count); Task<IEnumerable<QiStream>> GetStreamsAsync (string searchText, int skip, int count); Should the above have a namespace parameter also?
Http
GET Qi/{tenantId}/{namespaceId}/Streams
Parameters
string tenantID
- The tenant identifier for the request
string namespaceId
- The namespace identifier for the request
searchText
- The text to search for.
Optional parameters
- ``skip`
- The number of matched stream names to skip over before returning the matching streams.
count
- The maximum number of streams to return.
- Returns
- An Ienumerable object of streams that fit search criteria.
- Security
- Allowed by administrator and user accounts
Returns a stream that matches the QiStream entity within the specified namespace, or creates the stream if it does not already exist. If the stream exists, it is returned to the caller unchanged.
Syntax
QiStream GetOrCreateStream (string tenantId, string namespaceId, QiStream entity); Task<QiStream> GetOrCreateStreamAsync (string tenantId, string namespaceId, QiStream entity);
Http
POST Qi/{tenantId}/{namespaceId}/Streams
Parameters
string tenantID
- The tenant identifier for the request
string namespaceId
- The namespace identifier for the request
entity
- Qi Stream object
Optional parameters
None
- Returns
- An QiStream
- Security
- Allowed by administrator accounts
Updates a specified stream in a specified namespace with the properties in the specified QiStream entity. The following changes are permitted:
- Name
- BehaviorId
- Description
An exception is thrown on unpermitted change attempt (and the stream is left unchanged)
The UpdateStream() method applies to the entire entity. Optional fields that are omitted from the entity will remove the field from the stream if the fields had been set previously.
Syntax
void UpdateStream(string tenantId, string namespaceId, string streamId, QiStream entity); Task UpdateStreamAsync(string tenantId, string namespaceId, string streamId, QiStream entity);
Http
PUT Qi/{tenantId}/{namespaceId}/Streams/{streamId}
Parameters
string tenantID
- The tenant identifier for the request
string namespaceId
- The namespace identifier for the request
streamId
- Identifier of the stream to modify
entity
- Updated stream object
Optional parameters
None
- Returns
- A QiStream
- Security
- Allowed by administrator accounts
Deletes a stream that matches the QiStream entity within the specified namespace.
Syntax
void DeleteStream(string tenantId, string namespaceId, string streamId); Task DeleteStreamAsync(string tenantId, string namespaceId, string streamId);
Http
DELETE Qi/{tenantId}/{namespaceId}/Streams/{streamId}
Parameters
string tenantID
- The tenant identifier for the request
string namespaceId
- The namespace identifier for the request.
streamId
The identifier of the stream to delete.
Optional parameters
None
- Returns
- A QiStream
- Security
