Operations 5

Each operation below carries the questions people ask an LLM about it and the instructions they give an agent to run it. Generated by API Evangelist overlay

GET /measurement/measurements List sensor measurements · List Measurements #
Ask an LLM
“What temperature readings did a device send yesterday?”
“Can I filter measurements by value fragment and series?”
Tell an agent
List measurements from device {source} between {dateFrom} and {dateTo}.
Show {valueFragmentType} measurements for series {valueFragmentSeries}.
POST /measurement/measurements Send a new measurement reading · Create a Measurement #
Ask an LLM
“How do I push a sensor reading into Cumulocity?”
“What fields are needed to record a measurement for a device?”
Tell an agent
Record a {type} measurement for device {source} at {time}.
Create measurement {measurements} on device {source} at {time} with type {type}.
DELETE /measurement/measurements Delete measurements matching a filter · Delete Measurements by Filter #
Ask an LLM
“Can I delete all measurements from a device for a date range?”
“Is there a bulk way to wipe old readings of one type?”
Tell an agent destructive · confirm first
Delete all measurements from device {source} before {dateTo}.
Delete {type} measurements recorded between {dateFrom} and {dateTo}.
GET /measurement/measurements/{id} Look up one measurement · Retrieve a Measurement #
Ask an LLM
“How do I read a single measurement by its ID?”
“What values did one specific reading contain?”
Tell an agent
Show me measurement {id}.
Get the values of measurement {id}.
DELETE /measurement/measurements/{id} Delete one measurement · Delete a Measurement #
Ask an LLM
“How do I remove one bad sensor reading?”
“Can I delete a single measurement without a filter?”
