Create a view

Overview

Create a view. The model API describes assets, attributes, bindings, templates, views, registries, and governed changes that give series data its operational meaning.

When to use it

• Use it when an application needs to create a view.
• Use it when a modeling tool is building, governing, resolving, or inspecting the asset and attribute hierarchy.

Quick example

Set the base URL and replace generated identifiers or credentials with values from your installation.

curl --request POST \
  --url "$ORDINATE_URL/v1/model/views" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $ORDINATE_TOKEN" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
    "name": "string"
  }'

{
  "view_id": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001",
  "name": "string",
  "retired": false,
  "tx_id": 0
}

The cURL request sends the smallest contract-derived body and asks OrdinateDB to create a view. The documented 200 response is created view.

Code examples

These examples are generated from the source contract. Replace the base URL, credentials, identifiers, and minimal generated values for your instance.

const ordinateUrl = "http://localhost:8080";
const token = "<bearer-token>";

const response = await fetch(`${ordinateUrl}/v1/model/views`, {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
  "name": "string"
})
});

if (!response.ok) {
  throw new Error(`OrdinateDB returned ${response.status}: ${await response.text()}`);
}

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
