Introduction to the MonitorPro Importer API aka Scheduled Importer
Introduction
An API Importer, or a Scheduled Importer, allows users to connect to several API endpoints to return data for import. A library of endpoints is supported with the ability to add more. If you have a specific requirement, then contact your Account Manager or support@ehsdata.com
Once configured, these importers automatically retrieve data from an external system at a timed interval.
Each Importer will require the setup of the specific parameters. The specific API provider stipulates the number and type of parameters. Some of the below are generic data providers (such as weather in your area). Others are explicitly provided for users to access their data stored in the cloud after being collected onsite (such as level loggers or site-based weather stations). Some endpoints are secured, and the traffic is encrypted. These may require users to obtain a token, which MonitorPro then uses to authenticate to the service.
The following list includes some available examples, the details of which are correct at the time of writing.
Beemetry - https://www.beemetry.com/
This importer is used to obtain weather data.
H2 Lab - https://h2lab.ca/
This importer is used to obtain lab results from the H2 Lab
H2 Lab Lixiviation - https://h2lab.ca/
This importer is used to obtain lab results. Variables can be excluded from the import using an exclusion file. The lixiviation logic takes a lixiviation variable (which ends in lix.) and creates a SPLP/TCLP/CTEU-9 output instead.
Met Office Canada - https://www.canada.ca/en.html
This is used to obtain weather data from the Canadian Met Office. The data is obtained from https://api.weather.gc.ca/collections/climate-daily/items
Sonitus Cloud - https://www.sonitussystems.com/
This is used to pull data from the Sonitus Cloud API, predominantly noise data from their equipment and any other data hosted by Sonitus.
NASA Power - https://power.larc.nasa.gov/
This is used to obtain weather data.
FTS 360 - https://ftsinc.com/
This is used to obtain weather data.
dBase - Horiba
Used to obtain data from a dBASE database.
Horiba IOX web service - https://www.horiba.com/gbr/
Used to obtain data from Horiba loggers via their web interface commands.
AGQ Labs - https://www.agq.com.es/en
Connection to the AGQ Labs interface for clients to retrieve lab data.
