    "results": [
        {
        "change_url": "/core/datastreamcolumninfo/COLUMN_ID/change/",
        "created": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ",
        "id": COLUMN_ID,
        "is_key_column": false,
        "name": "COLUMN_NAME",
        "datatype": "Long",
        "removed": false,
        "target_column": null,
        "updated": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ"
        },
    {
    "change_url": "/core/datastreamcolumninfo/COLUMN_ID/change/",
    "created": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ",
    "id": COLUMN_ID,
    "is_key_column": false,
    "name": "COLUMN_NAME",
    "datatype": "DateTime",
    "removed": false,
    "target_column": {

    "measure": null
    },
    "updated": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ"
    }
  ]
}

 

RETRIEVE DETAILS OF ONE SPECIFIC COLUMN

To get details about a specific tracked column, perform a GET request on the ID. 

 curl -X GET \
  https://YOUR.STACK.datatap.adverity.com/api/columns/COLUMN_ID\
 -H 'Authorization: Token TOKEN_VALUE' \

Result:

{ 
    "change_url": "/core/datastreamcolumninfo/COLUMN_ID/change/",
    "created": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ",
    "id": COLUMN_ID,
    "is_key_column": false,
    "name": "COLUMN_NAME",
    "datatype": "Long",
    "removed": false,
    "target_column": {
    "id": TARGET_COLUMN_ID,
    "name": "TARGET_COLUMN_NAME",
    "usage": "dimension",
    "datatype": "String",
    "measure": null
     },
  "updated": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ"
}

Typically you would map a column from tracked Columns into a target column with target_column_id, is_key_column and set_default as mandatory parameters.

 

UPDATE COLUMN MAPPING

Perform a PATCH request to update mapping, set the mapping as a default, or set it as a key column:

 curl -X PATCH \
  https://YOUR.STACK.datatap.adverity.com/api/columns/COLUMN_ID/ \
  -H 'Authorization: Token TOKEN_VALUE' \
  -d '{"is_key_column":"TRUE/FALSE","set_default":"TRUE/FALSE","target_column": {"id": TARGET_COLUMN_ID}}'

Result 

{
    "change_url": "/core/datastreamcolumninfo/COLUMN_ID/change/",
    "created": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ",
    "id": COLUMN_ID,
    "is_key_column": true,
    "confirmed_type": false,
    "name": "COLUMN_NAME",
    "datatype": "Long",
    "removed": false,
    "target_column": null,
    "updated": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ"
}
