Labels API

Obtaining the User API token

In order to be able to use Labels API you must have an individual User API token, which can be found in space settings in devtodev system.

You will be able to see the interface unit with User API token in space settings only in case your price plan and access rights (role) allow you to use devtodev API. You can discard User API token or create it again on the same page.

Pay your attention that if you use several spaces, each of them will have an individual User API token.

Obtaining the list of categories

The result of the request is the obtaining of the list of all existing labels categories for the app.

Request:

https://www.devtodev.com/api/v1/labels/categories/get

POST

{
	"user_token": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", // devtodev user API token

	}
}

Removing categories

The request is used to remove or rename a category. The category can be removed only if its full name is specified. One request can remove only one category. In case the parameter move_labels_to_category is specified, labels that belong to the category that is going to be removed will be transfered to the specified category. If the specified category doesn't exist, it will be created. If move_labels_to_category is not specified, all the labels that belong to the category will be removed.

POST

{
	"user_token": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
	"app_id": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
	"filters": {

			"in": [100500, 100501]
		},
		"category": {
			"in": ["category name", "category name 2"]
		},
		"start_date": {
			"gte": 1478625206
		},
		"end_date": {
			"lte": 1478625206
		}
	}
}

Response:

API operator

Math operator

Description

Greater than

Less than

Equal

gte

Greater than or equal

lte

Less than or equal

neq

Not equal

In the list

neq

Not in the list

The empty object describes the filter that selects all the events in which the parameter value is not null or empty string.

Adding labels

In case the specified category doesn't exist, it will be created. If string values of fields exceed the maximum, they will be cut off.

If you need to specify an event without time length, start_date must be equal to end_date or end_date must not be specified.

Request:

https://www.devtodev.com/api/v1/labels/add

POST

{
	"user_token": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
	"app_id": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
	"labels": [{
		"name": "label name",
		"description": "short label description",
		"category": "category name",
		"start_date": 1478625206,
		"end_date": 1478625206
	}]
}

Response:

{
	"status_code": 201,
	"data": {
		"status": "created",
		"labels": [{
			"id": 100500,
			"name": "label name",
			"description": "short label description",
			"category": "category name",
			"start_date": 1478625206,
			"end_date": 1478625206
		}]
	}
}

Editing labels

To edit a label you need to specify its identifier (id). All the specified fields for the label will be replaced. In case the specified category doesn't exist, it will be created.

If it is necessary to change the dates of an event, you must specify start_date. It is impossible to specify end_date without specifying start_date. If the label is used in relation to a continuous event (start_data and end_date are different timestamps), but in an edited version only the start_date is received, the label becomes a point that characterizes an instant event.
