Creating A Control Room

Recap: What’s a Control Room?

Control Rooms are “containers of insights”.

Control Rooms can be created to organise insights geographically (e.g. Hero Potion control rooms for different regions, New York, Boston, San Fran).

They can also be used to organise insights by themes or types of insights (for example, different Control Rooms for the regulator, marketing team and logistics).

And of course, you can mix and match (for example, have control rooms for the logistics team in NY, a different one for the logistics team in San Fran and perhaps another Control Room that displays logistics insights across all cities).

Creating your first Control Room - Using the API

It’s entirely possible that Control Rooms need to be provisioned using APIs. For example, an automatic process that creates a control room for each pharmacy that purchases from HP Inc. This way each pharmacy can see information about shipping status as well as create and see insights about its customers.

Creating the Control Room

POST api.skyledge.com/controlrooms

// raw JSON body for api request
{  
   "name":"Heroes Flying Potion - Real-time Monitoring",
   "description":"Real-time monitoring of Flying Potions"
}

cURL

curl --location --request POST 'https://api.skyledge.com/controlrooms' \
--header 'X-Authorization: API_KEY' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw {  
   "name":"Heroes Flying Potion - Real-time Monitoring",
   "description":"Real-time monitoring of Flying Potions"
}

NodeJs

import {
  Configuration,
  ControlRoomsApi,
  CreateControlRoomRequest,
} from '@skyledge/sdk';

const configuration = new Configuration({
  apiKey: 'XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXX',
  basePath: 'https://api.skyledge.com',
});

const data: Partial<CreateControlRoomRequest> = {  
   "name":"Heroes Flying Potion - Real-time Monitoring",
   "description":"Real-time monitoring of Flying Potions"
}

const controlRoomApi = new ControlRoomsApi(configuration);

const newControlRoom = await controlRoomApi.createControlRoom(data);

console.log(newControlRoom.status);

Python

import requests
import json

url = "https://api.skyledge.com/controlrooms"

payload = json.dumps({  
   "name":"Heroes Flying Potion - Real-time Monitoring",
   "description":"Real-time monitoring of Flying Potions"
})
headers = {
  'X-Authorization': 'API_KEY',
  'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}

response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload)

print(response.text)
