Lytics Data Upload API is one of 34 APIs that [Lytics](https://apis.io/providers/lytics/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Data Upload. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, and an API reference.

APIs for collecting or uploading data. There are two main APIs, one for uploading Large files (bulk, millions of records) and another for sending real-time, or slightly batched events (Less than 10MB). **stream** A stream name is like a table in database, each stream is a differnt _Type_ of data. You assign a name to your data uploads to identify each stream/type. However, it should be consistent across uploads of same type of data. **Timestamp Fields** When uploading historical, or event data you may have a time/date at which an event occured. Normal event uploads get an event timestamp at the server time but you can over-ride this behavior so the timestamp is defined in the event you upload. This is a _timestamp_field_ parameter in api's below. The formatting for this is very, very lenient with over 50 format's supported.
