JSON Hub API: input actions
FairCom Edge's JSON Hub API can be used to alter, create, delete, describe, and list inputs
These actions are part of the JSON Hub API, which is available in FairCom Edge. This section provides several actions to alter, create, delete, describe, and list inputs. An input is a connection to an external device, equipment, or service that can input data into FairCom Edge. The input allows you to configure the connection, such as the frequency of data collection and the tags to be collected,
Note
A tag is a piece of named data with an associated value. For example, the tag temperature 70 includes both the named data temperature and the value 70. In JSON, a tag is a JSON property, such as "temperature": 70. In a SQL table, a tag is a data field, such as a field named temperature with a value of 70.
