Export Features

CSAPIProxyGMS.png This page details the export features available for GMS/CS services.

Introduction

You can export services data by performing one of the following queries:

These two export features will select the exported services for a given time-range, based on given time_from and time_to parameters.

Important
Only services which received events during the specified time-range can be exported.

By default, any services which received a start or completed event during the given period are exported, regardless their current state.

Setting Filters

If you set the state filter, the response filters the services according to their current status, active or not, and regardless the given time range.

Exporting services with event occurrences between T1 and T2. T3 is the date of the query.

The table below provide examples of filter values and their results according to the above figure.

Filter examples
Filter - filter_events Filter - filter_state Details Result
filter_events = any filter_state = any The response includes the services which received events between T1 and T2. S1, S2, S3
filter_events = any filter_state = active The response includes the services which received events between T1 and T2, AND which are still active at T3. S2
filter_events = any filter_state = inactive The response includes the services which received events between T1 and T2, AND which are no longer active at T3: S1, S3
filter_events = started filter_state = any The response includes the services which received a start event between T1 and T2. S1, S2
filter_events = started filter_state = active The response includes the services which received a start event between T1 and T2, AND which are still active at T3. S2
filter_events = started filter_state = inactive The response includes the services which received a start event between T1 and T2, AND which are no longer active at T3. S1
filter_events = completed filter_state = any The response includes the services which received a end event between T1 and T2 S3
filter_events = completed filter_state = active The response includes the services which received a end event between T1 and T2, AND which are still active at T3.
Tip
This combination can not return results. You should not use it.
N/A
filter_events = completed filter_state = inactive The response includes the services which received a end event between T1 and T2, AND which are no longer active at T3. S3

Exporting to the JSON Stream

If you export the services stream to JSON, you can either export a list of IDs or the whole data. Be careful: exporting the whole data can consume a lot of resources and delay the response. This query is intended to be used to retrieve a list of IDs, and you should then query the service data based on the service ID.

If you think that your query may retrieve a long list of IDs and if you need the service data, you may export the service stream to JSON et CSV files instead of setting the export_content option to true.

Important
If you set the export_content option to true, the response time depends on the size of the service data and the number of retrieved services.

Exporting to the Files Stream

If you need to export a wide collection of service data, you should export the services stream to CSV or JSON files. In this case, you can still use filters to select the exported content and you should not face timeout issues.

Important
The size of the generated files depend on the size of the service data.
