Storage API

Overview

The Storage API is a general purpose API that allows users to temporarily store arbitrary data.  Data may consist of key/value pairs of strings or binary objects.

API

Create

Allows the creation of a new storage area in Genesys Mobile Services (GMS).

Starting 8.5.103.xx, this operation requires the gms_user header to be passed to associate the custom_id to the customer. To retrieve the stored value, you also need to pass the gms_user header.

Operation

Parameter   Type   Mandatory Description
URI Parameters
{customId} string yes Custom ID of the storage. Available starting 8.5.103.xx
{ttl} number yes The time to live for this data, specified in seconds.  The data is automatically deleted after it has been stored for {ttl} seconds. The ttl must be greater than zero (0). If an incorrect value is specified, a default of 30 seconds is defined.
Body: A MultiPart form or a URL encoded form consisting of different items representing the key/value pairs to store.

Response

A JSON object with the property id, identifying the assigned id for this storage request.
