Get Trending Data for a Specific Asset
Retrieve data sets containing readings between a given time interval, in a specified time frame. Use this data to establish trends to plan, manage and optimize your workloads.
Prerequisites
- Authenticate - Submit your user credentials, Client ID, and Client Secret for OAuth2 authentication. Refer to API Authentication for instructions on how to call the OAuth API to validate and authenticate your credentials.
Step 2: Get Assets List
Use the Get Assets API request to retrieve assets that you have the permission to access.
Sample curl request - retrieve electrical assets in the CH1 IBX data center
curl -X
GET "https://api.equinix.com/asset/v1/list?accountNo=1&ibx=CH1&classification=Electrical"
-H "authorization: Bearer <token>'
Sample response
{
"payLoad": {
"classification": "Electrical",

Step 3: Get Assets Details
Use the Get Asset Details API request to retrieve asset details, including tag point identifiers.
Sample curl request - retrieve CH1.Gen-1 details
curl -X
GET "https://api.equinix.com/asset/v1/details?accountNo=1&ibx=CH1&assetId=CH1.Gen-1&classification=Electrical"
-H "authorization: Bearer <token>'
Sample response

}
}
Step 4: Get Trending Data
Use the Get Asset Tag Point Trending API request to retrieve a specified set of readings for the given tag point.
Sample curl request
curl -X
GET "https://api.equinix.com/asset/v1/tagpoint/trending?accountNo=1&ibx=CH1&tagId=CH1.Gen-5:fuelhours&interval=1h&fromDate=1483244949000&toDate=1493958549001"
-H "authorization: Bearer <token>"
Sample response
{
"payLoad": {
"accountNumber": "1",
"ibx": "CH1",
"interval": "1h",
"uom": "h",
"tagId": "CH1.Gen-5:fuelhours",
"tagDisplayName": "Fuel Hours",
"dataType": "Float",
"data": [
{
"datetime": "1484355108000",
