💅 c8y measurements createBulk — create bulk measurements, bestie ✨

You’re in the c8y(1) manual, and this page is all about c8y-measurements-createBulk. It’s giving “make a bunch of measurements without doing the absolute most.” 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

c8y-measurements-createBulk — Create bulk measurements

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

c8y measurements createBulk [flags]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Create new measurements using the bulk api. It collects inputs, groups them into batches, and sends them to the server. 🎀

Note: the template is applied to each piped measurement before being grouped. 💖

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • --batchSize=10 — batch size, aka the number of measurements per request to send 📦
  • -d, --data=[] — static data to be applied to body; accepts json or shorthand json, i.e. --data 'value1=1,my.nested.value=100'
  • --device=[] — the ManagedObject which is the source of this measurement (accepts pipeline) 🔗
  • -h, --help[=false] — help for createBulk
  • --processingMode="" — Cumulocity processing mode
  • --template="" — body template
  • --templateVars=[] — body template variables
  • --time="" — time of the measurement; defaults to current timestamp ⏰
  • --type="" — the most specific type of this entire measurement

🫶 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🫶

  • --abortOnErrors=10 — abort batch when reaching specified number of errors
  • --allowEmptyPipe[=false] — don’t fail when piped input is empty (stdin)
  • --cache[=false] — enable cached responses
  • --cacheBodyPaths=[] — cache should limit hashing of selected paths in the json body; empty indicates all values
  • --cacheTTL="60s" — cache time-to-live (TTL) as a duration, i.e. 60s, 2m
  • -c, --compact[=false] — compact instead of pretty-printed output when using json output; pretty print is the default if output is the terminal
  • --confirm[=false] — prompt for confirmation
  • --confirmText="" — custom confirmation text
  • --currentPage=0 — current page which should be returned
  • --customQueryParam=[] — add custom URL query parameters, i.e. --customQueryParam 'withCustomOption=true,myOtherOption=myvalue'
  • --debug[=false] — set very verbose log messages
  • --delay="0ms" — delay after each request, i.e. 5ms, 1.2s
  • --delayBefore="0ms" — delay before each request, i.e. 5ms, 1.2s
  • --dry[=false] — Dry run. Don’t send any data to the server
  • --dryFormat="markdown" — dry run output format, i.e. json, dump, markdown or curl
  • --examples[=false] — show examples for the current command
  • --filter=[] — apply a client side filter to response before returning it to the user
  • --flatten[=false] — flatten json output by replacing nested json properties with properties where their names are represented by dot notation
  • -f, --force[=false] — do not prompt for confirmation; ignored when using --confirm
  • -H, --header=[] — custom headers, i.e. --header "Accept: value, AnotherHeader: myvalue"
  • --includeAll[=false] — include all results by iterating through each page
  • -k, --insecure[=false] — allow insecure server connections when using SSL
  • -l, --logMessage="" — add custom message to the activity log
  • --maxJobs=0 — maximum number of jobs; 0 = unlimited (use with caution!)
  • --noAccept[=false] — ignore Accept header will remove the Accept header from requests, however PUT and POST requests will only see the effect
  • --noCache[=false] — force disabling of cached responses (overwrites cache setting)
  • -M, --noColor[=false] — don’t use colors when displaying log entries on the console
  • --noLog[=false] — disables the activity log for the current command
  • --noProgress[=false] — disable progress bars
  • --noProxy[=false] — ignore the proxy settings
  • -n, --nullInput[=false] — don’t read the input (stdin); useful if using in shell for/while loops
  • -o, --output="table" — output format i.e. table, json, csv, csvheader
  • --outputFile="" — save JSON output to file (after select/view)
  • --outputFileRaw="" — save raw response to file (before select/view)
  • --outputTemplate="" — jsonnet template to apply to the output
  • -p, --pageSize=5 — maximum results per page
  • --progress[=false] — show progress bar; this will also disable any other verbose output
  • --proxy="" — proxy setting, i.e. http://10.0.0.1:8080
  • -r, --raw[=false] — show raw response; this mode will force output=json and view=off
  • --retries=3 — max number of attempts when a failed http call is encountered
  • --select=[] — comma separated list of properties to return; wildcards and globstar accepted, i.e. --select 'id,name,type,**.serialNumber'
  • --session="" — session configuration
  • --sessionMode="" — override default session mode for a single command which would normally be disabled
  • -P, --sessionPassword="" — override session password
  • -U, --sessionUsername="" — override session username, i.e. peter or t1234/peter (with tenant)
  • --silentExit[=false] — silent status codes do not affect the exit code
  • --silentStatusCodes="" — status codes which will not print out an error message
  • --timeout="600s" — request timeout duration, i.e. 60s, 2m
  • --totalPages=0 — total number of pages to get
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — verbose logging
  • --view="auto" — use views when displaying data on the terminal; disable using --view off
  • --withError[=false] — errors will be printed on stdout instead of stderr
  • --withTotalElements[=false] — request Cumulocity to include the total elements in the response statistics under .statistics.totalElements (introduced in 10.13)
  • -t, --withTotalPages[=false] — request Cumulocity to include the total pages in the response statistics under .statistics.totalPages
  • --workers=1 — number of workers

🎀 EXAMPLE 🎀

$ c8y measurements list -p 1000 --device 11111  | c8y measurements createBulk --device 22222 --batchSize 100

Copy measurements from one device to another, but create measurement in batches of 100. 🔥

$ c8y measurements list -p 20 --valueFragmentType c8y_Temperature --valueFragmentSeries T \
     | c8y measurements createBulk \
          --type testme \
          --template "{c8y_Temperature+:{T+:{value: input.value.c8y_Temperature.T.value + 100}}}"

Copy measurements from one device to another modifying the measurements slightly but adding 100 to the value. 💖
