Forward Events

Forward Event Data of Devices

Make sure that event data, which shall be taken into consideration by MOOST Recommender Platform, are forwarded to MOOST via MOOST API.

See Event Types to get an overview which Events should be forwarded for which Devices in which periodicity.

Event Data Structure

Following example depicts an event structure of a energy consumption event.

{
  "id": "6703cfa2fa7bfc35eb1f74d0",
  "customerId": "656730be2bc9719e6e5ed51d",
  "customerBuildingId": "99900000C048ADA6",
  "deviceId": "c8f09e83046c",
  "deviceName": "Sinemaa main meter",
  "source": "GATEWAY",
  "type": "ENERGY_CONSUMPTION",
  "value": 858.71,
  "timestamp": 1727992800000
}

Data Structure Attributes

Attribute Name	Description
id	The event ID on MOOST side (is generated when inserting a new event)
customerId	The ID of the customer (cannot be set or change)
customerBuildingId	The building ID on customer side
deviceId	The ID of the device which is producing this event (should refer to the device within the building, see Building Data Structure
deviceName	The name of the device which is producing this event. Remark: if devices have not an own name, the product name can be used.
source	The device which is related to this event. See Device Types Remark: device type GATEWAY is used, when this is a data point for the whole household / building.
type	The event type of this event. This value also implies the data unit. See Event Types
value	The value of the event datapoint. Remark: must be a number
timestamp	Time of the event (Epoch Time in seconds (UTC))
