Enumeration

Note: This resource links can be expanded using the expand option.

The enumeration resource describes reusable configuration of an account.

A enumeration looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<enumeration>
  <id type="integer">879</id>
  <name>Mediagenix On-Demand:Platform Configuration</name>
  <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879"/>
  <link rel="entries" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/entries"/>
  <link rel="mappings" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/mappings"/>
</enumeration>

{
  "resource_type": "enumeration",
  "id": 879,
  "name": "Mediagenix On-Demand:Platform Configuration",
  "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879",
  "entries_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/entries",
  "mappings_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/mappings"
}

Note: currently enumerations cannot be updated/destroyed through the API. Please, contact your Technical Account Manager in order to define the list of enumerations suitable for your company.

Valid attributes

name (required): Name of the enumeration.
entries (optional): Each of the entries that describes the enumeration.
mappings (optional): Each of the mappings associated to that enumeration.

Get a list of all enumerations in the current account

In the root resource, just do a GET to the URL in the enumerations link:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<movida>
  ...
  <link rel="enumerations" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations"/>
  ...
</movida>

{
  "resource_type": "movida",
  // ...
  "enumerations_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations"
  // ...
}

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Accept: application/json" https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations

And:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<enumerations type="array">
  <total-entries>66</total-entries>
  <link rel="next" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations?page=2"/>
  <enumeration>
    <id type="integer">879</id>
    <name>Mediagenix On-Demand:Platform Configuration</name>
    <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879"/>
    <link rel="entries" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/entries"/>
    <link rel="mappings" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/mappings"/>
  </enumeration>
  <enumeration>

    <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/923"/>
    <link rel="entries" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/923/entries"/>
    <link rel="mappings" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/923/mappings"/>
  </enumeration>
  <!-- ... -->
</enumerations>

{
  "total_entries": 66,
  "next_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations?page=2",
  "entries": [
    {
      "resource_type": "enumeration",
      "id": 879,
      "name": "Mediagenix On-Demand:Platform Configuration",
      "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879",
      "entries_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/entries",
      "mappings_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/mappings"
    },
    {
      "resource_type": "enumeration",
      "id": 923,
      "name": "Source Origin",
      "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/923",
      "entries_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/923/entries",
      "mappings_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/923/mappings"
    },
    // ...
  ]
}

Note: This is a paginated resource. By default, only 50 enumerations will be included in each page but you can override this default by using the per_page parameter described in the next section. The total-entries attribute will indicate the total number of entries and the links rel="next" and rel="prev" should be used to get the next and the previous pages.

Valid attributes

You can filter the list of enumerations returned using the following attributes:

per_page: Number of elements returned in each page. The maximum value allowed is 200 and the default is 50.

Get a specific enumeration

Just do a GET to the URL in the enumeration self link

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Accept: application/json" https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879

And:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<enumeration>
  <id type="integer">879</id>
  <name>Mediagenix On-Demand:Platform Configuration</name>
  <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879"/>
  <link rel="entries" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/entries"/>
  <link rel="mappings" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/mappings"/>
</enumeration>

{
  "resource_type": "enumeration",
  "id": 879,
  "name": "Mediagenix On-Demand:Platform Configuration",
  "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879",
  "entries_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/entries",
  "mappings_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879/mappings"
}

Remember you can use the expand me some nodes trick if you want to, for instance, find out what are the entries and mappings of a particular enumeration.

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879?expand=entries,mappings,mapping_entries

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Accept: application/json" https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/879?expand=entries,mappings,mapping_entries

This would expand the rel="entries", the rel="mappings" links inside the enumeration, and the rel="mapping_entries" link inside each entry yielding something like:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<enumeration>
  <id type="integer">879</id>

Create a new enumeration

To create enumerations, you just need to POST proper XML/JSON enumeration representation to the enumerations link.

For example, this POST would create an enumeration (we will use curl’s @ option, which reads data to be posted from a file):

$ cat enumeration.xml

$ cat enumeration.json

<enumeration>
  <name>Resolution</name>
</enumeration>

{
    "resource_type": "enumeration",
    "name": "Resolution"
}

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -H "Accept: application/xml" -X POST -d @enumeration.xml "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations"

$ curl --digest -u robot_user:password -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -X POST -d @enumeration.json "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations"

Mediagenix On-Demand will return the full XML/JSON of the enumeration just created:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<enumeration>
    <id type="integer">880</id>
    <name>Resolution</name>
    <link rel="self" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/880"/>
    <link rel="entries" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/880/entries"/>
    <link rel="mappings" href="https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/880/mappings"/>
</enumeration>

{
    "resource_type": "enumeration",
    "id": 880,
    "name": "Resolution",
    "self_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/880",
    "entries_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/880/entries",
    "mappings_link": "https://movida.bebanjo.net/api/enumerations/880/mappings"
