HTTP request methods

http://supermapiserver:8090/iserver/services/datacatalog/rest/datacatalog/binary/dataimport.rjson

Response structure

Executes POST request on dataimport resource. The response arguments are as follows:

Field Type Description
dataId String Id of uploaded file.
succeed boolean Whether it's successful to import data.

Response example

The returned rjson format representation after implementing the GET request on the dataimport resource http://supermapiserver:8090//iserver/services/datacatalog/rest/datacatalog/binary/dataimport.rjson is as follows:

{

"dataId":"594ca83fe084f411bcb22575"

"succeed":True

}

HEAD request

Asks for the response identical to the one that would correspond to a GET request, but without the response body. This is useful for retrieving meta-information contained in response headers, without having to transport the entire content. The meta-information includes the media-type, content-encoding, transfer-encoding, content-length, etc.

HEAD request can be used to check whether the dataimport resource exists, or whether the the client has the permission to access it. It can also determine if the dataimport resource supports an output format <format> if performed on a URI with .<format> included.
