RESTful API V2

RESTful API V2

IoTDB's RESTful services can be used for query, write, and management operations, using the OpenAPI standard to define interfaces and generate frameworks.

Enable RESTful Services

RESTful services are disabled by default.

  • Developer

    Find the IoTDBrestServiceConfig class under org.apache.iotdb.db.conf.rest in the sever module, and modify enableRestService=true.

  • User

    Find the conf/iotdb-system.properties file under the IoTDB installation directory and set enable_rest_service to true to enable the module.

    enable_rest_service=true

Authentication

Except the liveness probe API /ping, RESTful services use the basic authentication. Each URL request needs to carry 'Authorization': 'Basic ' + base64.encode(username + ':' + password).

The username used in the following examples is: root, and password is: root.

And the authorization header is

Authorization: Basic cm9vdDpyb290

  • If a user authorized with incorrect username or password, the following error is returned:

    HTTP Status Code：401

    HTTP response body:

    {
  "code": 600,
  "message": "WRONG_LOGIN_PASSWORD_ERROR"
}

  • If the Authorization header is missing，the following error is returned:

    HTTP Status Code：401

    HTTP response body:

    {
  "code": 603,
  "message": "UNINITIALIZED_AUTH_ERROR"
}

Interface

ping

The /ping API can be used for service liveness probing.

Request method: GET

Request path: http://ip:port/ping

The user name used in the example is: root, password: root

Example request:

$ curl http://127.0.0.1:18080/ping

Response status codes:

  • 200: The service is alive.
  • 503: The service cannot accept any requests now.

Response parameters:

parameter nameparameter typeparameter describe
codeintegerstatus code
messagestringmessage

Sample response:

  • With HTTP status code 200:

    {
  "code": 200,
  "message": "SUCCESS_STATUS"
}

  • With HTTP status code 503:

    {
  "code": 500,
  "message": "thrift service is unavailable"
}

/ping can be accessed without authorization.

query

The query interface can be used to handle data queries and metadata queries.

Request method: POST

Request header: application/json

Request path: http://ip:port/rest/v2/query

Parameter Description:

parameter nameparameter typerequiredparameter description
sqlstringyes
row_limitintegernoThe maximum number of rows in the result set that can be returned by a query.
If this parameter is not set, the rest_query_default_row_size_limit of the configuration file will be used as the default value.
When the number of rows in the returned result set exceeds the limit, the status code 411 will be returned.

Response parameters:

parameter nameparameter typeparameter description
expressionsarrayArray of result set column names for data query, null for metadata query
column_namesarrayArray of column names for metadata query result set, null for data query
timestampsarrayTimestamp column, null for metadata query
valuesarrayA two-dimensional array, the first dimension has the same length as the result set column name array, and the second dimension array represents a column of the result set

Examples:

Tip: Statements like select * from root.xx.** are not recommended because those statements may cause OOM.
