Chapter 1. OverviewThe IBM Cognos TM1 REST API provides an Open Data Protocol (OData) Version 4 compliant interface toan IBM Cognos TM1 server, which allows clients to query and update data sources that are hosted by theIBM Cognos TM1 Server.
The OData standard defines a set of rules and guidelines that are derived from common web technologiesthat include HTTP, REST, XML, and JSON. The OData standard provides a rich, interactive interface to datathat can be accessed by any OData-compliant HTTP application. The TM1 REST API meets theintermediate conformance level of the OData Version 4 protocol. For more information, see“Conformance” on page 1.
You can use the TM1 REST API to maintain a TM1 model, manage T1 processes, and query data that isstored in the model. For general information, see “TM1 REST API introduction” on page 2. For moreinformation about how to use the TM1 REST APIs, see Chapter 5, “Representing TM1 data,” on page 121.
With minimal configuration, the TM1 REST API provides developers with a standards-based approach towriting applications that query and update TM1 models. The Entity Data Model (EDM) defines the TM1data model so that OData clients can understand and manipulate the model. For more information, seeChapter 4, “Metadata,” on page 13.
The OData website, OData.org, is a comprehensive source for information about the OData standard. Youcan find documentation about the provider of an OData web service (also referred to as an ODataendpoint) and consumers of the OData service. The OData standard is described in the followingdocuments:
• OData Part 1: Protocol• OData Part 2: URL Conventions• OData Part 3: Common Schema Definition Language (CSDL)• OData JSON Format
You can learn about TM1 REST API conformance to the OData Version 4 standard in the followingsections.
ConformanceThe TM1 REST API meets the intermediate conformance level of the OData Version 4 protocol.
The OData Version 4 protocol describes three levels of conformance for OData services: minimal,intermediate, and advanced. The minimal conformance level specifies the minimum set of requirementsfor a service to be considered an OData-compliant service.
Non-updateable service compliance
The TM1 REST API meets all requirements of the Intermediate Conformance Level, as described insection 13.1.2 of the OData Protocol specification, for a non-updatable OData Service.
In addition to the intermediate level supported, the TM1 REST API also satisfies the followingrequirements from the Advanced Conformance Level:
• Items 1-8.• The following items from 9:
– i, ii, iii, v, and vi.

Updatable service compliance
The TM1 REST API is an Updatable service but does not meet all of the requirements to be considered anUpdatable OData service, as described in section 13.1.1 OData Minimal Conformance Level. It doessatisfy requirements 14, 15, 16, 19, 20, and 23.
Supported formats
The TM1 REST API supports the [OData-JSON] format.
Supported preferences
The TM1 REST API supports some of the Header Prefer values that are specified in the OData Version 4protocol.
Supported preferences include the following values:
• 8.2.8.6 Preference odata.track-changes (supported only on transaction and message logs)• 8.2.8.7 Preference return=representation and return=minimal• 8.2.8.8 Preference respond-async
Entity tag (ETag) support
The TM1 REST API provides weak ETags for Cube, Dimension, Hierarchy, ElementCollection,Element, Subset, Process, View, and Chore entities.
For more information about the ETag header field, see the following ODATA references:
• 2.3 ETag ODATA standards• 8.3.1 Response Header ETag
TM1 REST API introductionThe TM1 REST API supports create, read, update, and delete operations.
The TM1 REST API documentation provides examples that follow syntax guidelines. For more information,see “Syntax used in examples” on page 2.
Syntax used in examplesAll of the examples in the TM1 REST API documentation assume a service root URL as follows:
http://tm1server:8000/api/v1/
When a syntax example is shown, the resource path portion of the URL and any query options that mightbe shown must be appended to the service root URL. For example:
Cubes/$count
The full URL used to execute this operation includes all three parts:
• The service root URL• The resource path (in the following example, Cubes/)• Any query options, such as $filter, which returns the cubes that match the filter criteria (in this
example all cubes with more than five dimensions):
http://tm1server:8000/api/v1/Cubes?$filter=Dimensions/$count gt 5

Read from the model (HTTP GET)You can run a read operation on the containing set where you want to create a new entity. To understandthe data structure of an entity that you want to create, you can examine the $metadata document that isprovided by the service URL:
http://tm1server:8000/api/v1/$metadata
Note: The port number is specified in the HTTPPortNumber entry in the tm1s.cfg file in the modeldirectory.
The $metadata document describes the structure, or schema, of the Process entity, which is the typethat is created in the example that follows:
<EntityType Name="Process"> <Key> <PropertyRef Name="Name"/> </Key> <Property Name="Name" Nullable="false" Type="Edm.String"/> <Property Name="HasSecurityAccess" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.Boolean"/> <Property Name="PrologProcedure" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.String"/> <Property Name="MetadataProcedure" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.String"/> <Property Name="DataProcedure" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.String"/> <Property Name="EpilogProcedure" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.String"/> <Property Name="DataSource" Nullable="true" Type="ibm.tm1.api.v1.ProcessDataSource"/> <Property Name="Parameters" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.ProcessParameter)"/> <Property Name="Variables" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.ProcessVariable)"/> </EntityType>
In this example, a GET action returns the existing Process entities
GET /api/v1/Processes
The result context is $metadata#Processes, which is where the new Process entity is contained:
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Processes", "value": [ { "Name": "mover", "HasSecurityAccess": false, ...
Create an entity (HTTP POST)To create a new entity, use a POST operation and specify the structure of the new entity, which is based onthe rules that are defined in the schema. For example, the following POST operation creates a process:
POST /api/v1/Processes

If the schema for the entity that you are creating defines a property as Nullable="false", the propertyis required and you must provide a value in your payload or the operation fails. In the following example,the Name property must be specified.
The response contains the structure of the newly created entity:
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Processes/$entity", "Name": "MyProcess", "HasSecurityAccess": false, "PrologProcedure": "", "MetadataProcedure": "", "DataProcedure": "", "EpilogProcedure": "", "DataSource": { "Type": "None" }, "Parameters": [ { "Name": "PStartDate", "Prompt": "Start Period?", "Value": "Jan-2003" } ], "Variables": []}
Update an entity (HTTP POST or PATCH)To change a property in an existing entity to a new value, you can use a PATCH operation with the contextof the entity that you want to update.
In the following example, the server's metadata document specifies that a Process entity can have anoptional HasSecurityAccess property and that it can be set by using a Boolean value:
<EntityType Name="Process"> <Key> <PropertyRef Name="Name"/> </Key> <Property Name="Name" Type="Edm.String" Nullable="false"/> <Property Name="HasSecurityAccess" Type="Edm.Boolean" Nullable="true"/> ... </EntityType>
Because the HasSecurityAccess property is a Boolean type, the value (true or false) is not enclosedin quotation marks, which would identify the value as a string.
PATCH /api/v1/Processes('mover')
{ "HasSecurityAccess": true }

The response from the server displays the updated entity:
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Processes/$entity", "Name": "mover", "HasSecurityAccess": true, ... }
Delete an entity (HTTP DELETE)You can delete an entity only if you have the appropriate TM1 permissions to do so.
The following entities can be deleted:
• Attachment• Annotation• Cellset
Note: DELETE must be called on every Cellset generated as a result of an Execute request after it isno longer needed. If unused Cellset entities are not deleted, they continue to consume systemresources until the session is closed.
• Component
Note: DELETE on a Component deletes the relationship between the specified component and theparent's component.
• Cube• Dimension
Note: DELETE on a Dimension is only allowed if the dimension is no longer used in a cube.• Edge
Note: DELETE on an Edge deletes the relationship between two elements that are indicated by theedge.
• Element• Group• Process• Sandbox• Subset• User• View
A cell by itself is not an entity because you cannot execute a DELETE action on a cell. Cells representintersections between elements of all the dimensions in a cube. If you remove elements from anydimension, you delete the cells that are associated with those elements. If you want to delete, or remove,the value of a cell, update the value of the cell to NULL by using the PATCH operation.

Chapter 2. Installation and configurationAfter you install IBM Cognos TM1 with the procedures that are described in the Planning AnalyticsInstallation and Configuration documentation, you must enable the use of TM1 REST APIs.
The following procedure needs to be followed for every TM1 Server that you want to enable TM1 RESTAPIs for:
1. If HTTPPortNumber is not defined in your tm1s.cfg file, then port number "5001" will be assignedautomatically. You can manually define your HTTPPortNumber in the tm1s.cfg file using the followingsyntax:
HTTPPortNumber=[xxxx]
Where [xxxx] is a valid port number (typically 1-65535).2. Configure the UseSSL property, which defines whether a client needs to connect by using the HTTP or
HTTPS protocol. Valid settings are UseSSL=T or UseSSL=F.
Attention: This property is a shared setting. Turning off the use of SSL turns it off for all CognosTM1 clients, which allows them to connect to the server in an insecure mode.
3. Start your TM1 Server.4. Verify your configuration with a GET request to see whether you get a response. For example:
https://<fully_qualified_domain_name>/api/v1/
You can also test whether you get the EDM metadata back from your server by using the followingrequest:
https://<fully_qualified_domain_name>/api/v1/$metadata
You can also check that the TM1 Server that is hosting the model is running by using a tool thatmonitors HTTP traffic.

Chapter 3. HTTP authenticationTo use the TM1 REST API, your client application needs to authenticate to the TM1 Server.
When you make a request without the appropriate authentication, the TM1 Server returns a 401Unauthorized response code and sets the WWW-Authenticate header to indicate the authenticationmethod that is supported by the server.
The IntegratedSecurityMode parameter that is set in the tms1.cfg file for each server specifieswhich authentication modes are supported by that server.
For more information about the IntegratedSecurityMode parameter, see the Planning Analytics LocalInstallation and Configuration documentation.
You can use the Logger and ServerSettings entities to retrieve and update TM1 settings. For moreinformation, see Chapter 6, “TM1 settings,” on page 161.
Supported security modes
The following security modes are supported for TM1 REST API clients:
Basic IntegratedSecurityMode=1
Standard TM1 authentication is mapped to HTTP Basic authentication where the username and password are passed on to the TM1 Server.
WWW-Authenticate: Basic Realm="TM1"
The server expects an Authorization header in the following format:
Authorization: Basic base64(user:password)
Mixed (Windows Integrated Authentication and Basic) IntegratedSecurityMode=2
This mode mixes both TM1 standard authentication with Windows IntegratedAuthentication (WIA).
To be able to indicate to the client that both modes are supported, the server returns twoWWW-Authenticate headers. Because it is the preferred authentication mode in thiscase, the header the Windows Integrated Authentication mode is returned first, and then,the header that provides basic TM1 authentication is returned.
Windows Integrated Authentication (Microsoft Windows only) IntegratedSecurityMode=3
The server supports Windows Integrated Authentication (WIA) only. In this case, the serverfollows SPNEGO-based Kerberos and NTLM HTTP Authentication as outlined in RFC-4559.The WWW-Authenticate response header is similar to the following example:
WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate
To authenticate, the server expects an Authorization header to start the authenticationsequence in the following format:
Authorization: Negotiate base64(token)
The authentication process might require multiple round-trips to complete theauthentication sequence. Intermittent results are returned with a 401 Unauthorizedagain, setting the WWW-Authenticate header again to Negotiate, but this time followedby the base64 encoded token to be used to continue the authentication process.

IBM Cognos BI or Cognos Authentication Manager (CAM) authentication(IntegratedSecurityMode=4 or 5)
When the TM1 Server uses CAM authentication or a combination of CAM and Nativeauthentication, the server authentication fault response header includes a CAM client URIfor the client to use to obtain an authentication token (CAM Passport). This approacheliminates the need to return the security mode to set up authentication negotiation.
If the server security mode is set to CAM, the WWW-Authenticate headers returned on anHTTP request where authentication fails or is not present include the ClientCAMURI thatis specified in tm1s.cfg file, which is necessary to log in.
The TM1 Server supports CAM authentication that is based on a CAM passport or CAMcredentials (a namespace, user name and password pair). Therefore, the server returns aWWW-Authenticate header as in:
WWW-Authenticate CAMPassport http://sottprismdev1.canlab.ibm.com:8080/ibmcognos/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi, CAMNamespace
The URI passed as a parameter for CAMPassport is the ClientCAMURI as configured forthat TM1 Server. This URI must point to a Cognos BI instance that can be used toauthenticate against by following the URI. For more information about authenticatingagainst CAM and how to integrate with it, see the IBM Cognos BI Software DevelopmentKit.
After successful authentication, the cam_passport can be passed to TM1 forauthentication by using the following Authorization header format:
Authorization: CAMPassport cam_passport
If you know how to log in to CAM with credentials, you can send an Authorizationheader that contains a base64-encoded user name, password and CAM namespace pairsuch as:
Authorization: CAMNamespace base64(user:password:namespace)
The TM1 Server validates the passport or the CAM namespace credentials against the URLspecified by ServerCAMURI in the tm1s.cfg file.
Session management
A browser cookie that contains a session ID gets set during the authentication process. This session IDcookie must be passed back to the server on every subsequent request in the HTTP request header.
By default, authenticated sessions time out after 20 minutes of inactivity. Setting theHTTPSessionTimeoutMinutes parameter in the tm1s.cfg file on the TM1 Server changes the defaulttimeout value. If a session times out, requests made with the previous session ID return 401Unauthorized.
Closing a session
To close a session, call the Close action on the Session object. If you are using 10.2.2 Fix Pack 5 orlater, you can use the ActiveSession singleton as the Session object.
If you are using a version earlier than 10.2.2 Fix Pack 5, you can log out of the current session (specifiedby the TM1SessionID cookie) by using the following request:
GET /api/logout
When the Close action or the logout request succeeds, the client must re-authenticate to accessprotected resources.

Note: In your browser, you might get the impression that the logout never happened. Browsers cache thecredentials and re-authenticate automatically when the next "401 Unauthorized" response is returned bythe server, which makes the re-authentication seamless.

Chapter 4. MetadataThe Entity Data Model (EDM) defines the TM1 data model that is based on OData Version 4.0 Part 3:Common Schema Definition Language (CSDL). It defines the TM1 data model in a common way so thatOData clients can understand and manipulate the model.
EDM hierarchyThe EDM hierarchy describes the relationship between TM1 entities, their properties, and their navigationproperties.
The EDM organizes entities into a hierarchy. Each entity, which is of some entity type, contains properties,each of which defines the data that the entity contains. An entity might also have navigation properties,which represent connections between entities.

TupleMemberKey:
Represents a member in a tuple on an axis in a query result.
Since: 11.2.0
BaseType: ibm.tm1.api.v1.Member
Properties
DisplayInfo
This property contains various items of information that help an application render the axis.
The DisplayInfo property contains various items of information that help an applicationrender the axis. It is a 4-byte value. The value of the least-significant byte of the leastsignificant word contains the so called drill level. The drill level effectively represents thenumber of ancestors of a member that preceded the member, hence those ancestors beingdrilled down, without breaking ancestry. The most significant byte of the least significantword represents the level in the ancestry relative to the ancestor at the root of the tree. Inthe most-significant 2 bytes, each bit potentially conveys one piece of display information,however for only 3 bits (the least-significant bits) a meaning has been defined. The least-significant bit (rightmost bit), if set, indicates that this member is drilled down. That is, atleast one descendant of this member appears on the axis, immediately following alloccurrences of that member. The next bit (the second least-significant bit), if set, indicatesthat the parent of this member is the same as the parent of the member preceding alloccurrences of the current member. The last bit (the third least-significant bit), if set,indicates that, with the exception of members that appear at/are at the root, at least onesibling of this member appears on the axis following zero or more descendants of themember.
Type: Edm.Int32Nullable: false
DisplayInfoAbove
This property contains various items of information that help an application render the axis,presuming children are expanded before their parent.
The DisplayInfoAbove property contains various items of information that help anapplication render the axis, looking at the content of the axis in reverse order, useful incases where children are presumed to be expanded before their parent/ancestors. It is a 4-byte value. The value of the least-significant byte of the least significant word contains theso called drill level. The drill level effectively represents the number of ancestors of amember that follow the member, hence those ancestors being drilled down, or rather up inthis case, without breaking ancestry. The most significant byte of the least significant wordrepresents the level in the ancestry relative to the ancestor at the root of the tree. In themost-significant 2 bytes, each bit potentially conveys one piece of display information,however for only 3 bits (the least-significant bits) a meaning has been defined.

Chapter 5. Representing TM1 dataThe OData standard provides a uniform, commonly accepted method of interacting with data by using aREST interface.
By using OData, API requests and responses are understood regardless of the endpoint that yourapplication communicates with. The TM1 data model is available to consumers through the TM1 RESTAPI as an Entity Data Model (EDM) that conforms to the OData Version 4 protocol.
An EDM is described by using Common Schema Definition Language (CSDL). CSDL uses an XMLrepresentation to describe the TM1 entity data model that is available from the TM1 OData service. To usethe TM1 REST API, you must understand how TM1 data is represented in EDM schema. You must alsounderstand how the “EDM hierarchy” on page 13 is represented.
For example, the View entity is described in the CSDL as an abstract entity. The NativeView andMDXView are based on the View entity. Because the View entity is abstract, it cannot be addresseddirectly, similar to conventions in an object-oriented paradigm.
<EntityType Name="View" Abstract="true" tm1:Plural="Views" tm1:Since="10.2.2.0"> <Key> <PropertyRef Name="Name"/> </Key> <Property Name="Name" Type="Edm.String" Nullable="false"> </Property> <Property Name="Attributes" Type="ibm.tm1.api.v1.Attributes"> </Property> <NavigationProperty Name="LocalizedAttributes" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.LocalizedAttributes)" ContainsTarget="true"> </NavigationProperty> <NavigationProperty Name="Cube" Type="ibm.tm1.api.v1.Cube" Partner="Views"> </NavigationProperty> <tm1:ResourceAttribute Name="view" AttributeType="const weak_ref<View>" ParamType="const weak_ref<View>" ByReference="true" IsPointer="true"/> <tm1:ContainedBy Name="Cube" Type="ibm.tm1.api.v1.Cube" Partner="Views"/> </EntityType>
Discovering an OData serviceA $metadata document, which is available from the TM1 server, returns a CSDL document that describesthe TM1 EDM that is made available by the OData service.
You can examine the $metadata document by executing the following URL:
http://tm1server:8000/api/v1/$metadata
Note: The port number is specified in the HTTPPortNumber entry in the tm1s.cfg file in the modeldirectory.
The CSDL document describes all of the entities and relationships between entities in the data model. Thedefinition for a TM1 cube is shown in the following example:
<EntityType Name="Cube" tm1:Plural="Cubes" tm1:Since="10.2.2.0"> <Key> <PropertyRef Name="Name"/> </Key>

A representation of a data model in EDM is similar to the object-oriented approach of defined classes andproperties and the relationships between them. For example, in the previous result, a Cube is describedas an entity that contains the properties Name and Rules, which are of type Edm.String. Otherproperties are defined by EDM built-in types or complex types that are specific to the vocabulary. Cubescontain dimensions, which are specified by the Dimensions navigation property, which in turn containhierarchies.
EDM structureThe $metadata for each model describes the structure of the data model according to the conventionsdefined in the OData protocol.
The main components that make up the model are described as follows:
Service DocumentThe context URL of the $metadata of the service. The $metadata document describes the resourcesmade available by the service.
MetadataA conceptual schema definition (CSDL) that describes the EDM, which is exposed as /api/v1/$metadata.
Entity containerA single container in a metadata document that describes the information that is made available bythe service. The entity container represents an entry point into a primary collection of one or moreedm:EntitySet, edm:Singleton, edm:ActionImport, or edm:FunctionImport elements. For

Entities
An object in the data model and its properties or complex types. An entity is similar to a classdefinition in an object-oriented language. Entities support the following features:
• Named structures with keys• The ability to reference other entities in the model with navigation properties, which define
relationships to other objects• Inheritance from another entity definition
For example, a Cube is made up of dimensions, but the dimensions are not contained within the cube.The entity definition for a Cube references Dimension entities at another location, and identifies theentity type as ibm.tm1.api.v1.Dimension:
<EntityType Name="Cube"> <Key> <PropertyRef Name="Name" /> </Key> <Property Name="Name" Nullable="false" Type="Edm.String" /> <Property Name="Rules" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.String" /> <Property Name="LastSchemaUpdate" Nullable="true"

The Dimension entity is defined elsewhere in the $metadata document.
RelationshipsA relationship can exist between entities in an EDM by:
• Navigation paths that reference another entity or collection of entities in the model. For example, aninvoice entity might have a relationship defined that references a customer ID.
• Containment of one entity by another identified by the ContainesTarget attribute.
The following diagram illustrates the relationship between a Cube and a Dimension entity, and howthe abstract View entity provides the base for the MDXView and NativeView entities.
Cubes and viewsA cube is the basic container for data and a view defines how a cube's dimensions are arranged.
View a cubeYou can use the following GET request to view the Metrics cube-Sales:

The GET request returns the following Metrics cube-Sales cube:
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Cubes/$entity", "Name": "Metrics cube-Sales", "Rules": "#Region System\nFEEDSTRINGS;\nSKIPCHECK;\nUNDEFVALS;\n#EndRegion\n\n#Region ...

Display the available views in a cubeYou can use the following GET request to display views in the Metrics cube-Sales cube:
GET /api/v1/Cubes('Metrics cube-Sales')/Views?$select=Name
The GET request lists the available views for the Metrics cube-Sales cube:
{ "@odata.context": "../$metadata#Cubes('Metrics%20cube-Sales')/Views(Name)", "value": [ { "@odata.type": "#ibm.tm1.api.v1.NativeView", "Name": "All" }, { "@odata.type": "#ibm.tm1.api.v1.NativeView", "Name": "Metrics cube-Sales" }, { "@odata.type": "#ibm.tm1.api.v1.NativeView", "Name": "View-Sales" } ]}
Get the specification of a viewYou can use the following GET request to see the specification of the Metrics cube-Sales view:
GET /api/v1/Cubes('Metrics cube-Sales')/Views('Metrics cube-Sales')
The result provides the specification of the view. Columns, Rows, and Titles are complex types, which inturn, contain navigation properties. As a result, they are not shown by default:
{ "@odata.context": "../$metadata#Cubes('Metrics%20cube-Sales')/Views/ibm.tm1.api.v1.NativeView/$entity", "@odata.type": "#ibm.tm1.api.v1.NativeView", "Name": "Metrics cube-Sales", "Columns": [ {} ], "Rows": [ {}

Generally, a cube is displayed as a pivot table, such as the Cube Viewer in TM1 Architect. Suppressbuttons in TM1 Architect correspond to the Suppress properties of a view.
Use options to view specific propertiesTo minimize the amount of data that is returned in a result, you can use a $select option to specifywhich properties of the entity to include.
You can use the following GET request to list cube names:
GET Cubes?$select=Name
In the result, only the names of the cubes are returned.
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Cubes(Name)", "value": [ { "Name": "plan_BudgetPlan" }, { "Name": "plan_BudgetPlanLineItem" }, { "Name": "plan_Control" }, ... ]}

You can select more than one property to return in the result. For example, if you specifyselect=Name,Dimensions, the GET request returns the following result:
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Cubes(Name,Dimensions)", "value": [ { "Name": "plan_BudgetPlan", "[email protected]": "Cubes('plan_BudgetPlan')/Dimensions" }, { "Name": "plan_BudgetPlanLineItem", "[email protected]": "Cubes('plan_BudgetPlanLineItem')/Dimensions" }, ... ]}
In the previous example, the navigation property that provides a link to the dimensions are returnedinstead of the actual dimensions.
List dimensions in a cubeWhen an entity contains navigation properties, a query operation returns only the navigation references tothe contained contents, not the entities themselves.
In the following example, only references to the dimensions that are contained within cubes are returned.The dimensions are not contained in the cube, but are referenced at another location.
GET Cubes('plan_BudgetPlan')/Dimensions
To include the dimensions as part of the payload that is returned, use the $expand query option toinclude them.
GET Cubes?$select=Name&$expand=Dimensions
In the previous example, the $select and $expand query options are separated with the ampersandsymbol (&). This request returns the name of the cube and the actual dimension instead of a reference tothe dimension:
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Cubes(Name,Dimensions)", "value": [ { "Name": "plan_BudgetPlan", "Dimensions": [ { "Name": "plan_version", "UniqueName": "[plan_version]", "Attributes": { "Caption": "plan_version" } }, ...

Expand dimensions and hierarchies in a cubeYou can expand dimensions and hierarchies in a cube by using the $expand query option.
To recursively expand items in a resource, use the $expand query option. In the following example, thecubes are listed by Name and the dimensions that are contained are listed in addition to the hierarchiescontained within each dimension.
GET /api/v1/Cubes('plan_BudgetPlanLineItem')?$select=Name& $expand=Dimensions($select=Name;$top=2; $expand=Hierarchies($select=Name))
In addition to the $select option, you can use the $top=2 query option to restrict the results to asmaller subset. Separate these options with a semi-colon (";") character. The opening and closingparenthesis contains the scope of the options to the context of the entity that precedes the parenthesis.For example, the last instance of ($select=Name) is contained within open and close parenthesis after$expand=Hierarchies. So this portion of the query, $select=Name;$top=2;$expand=Hierarchies, applies only to Dimensions while $select=Name applies only toHierarchies.
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Cubes/$entity", "Name": "plan_BudgetPlanLineItem", "Dimensions": [ { "Name": "plan_version", "Hierarchies": [ { "Name": "plan_version" } ] }, { "Name": "plan_business_unit", "Hierarchies": [ { "Name": "plan_business_unit" } ] } ]}
Use the Or operator to specify cube rules across hierarchiesYou can use a single rule statement to cover a set of same-named consolidated elements acrosshierarchies of the same dimension. This approach gives you greater flexibility with alternate hierarchies.
Suppose that your dimension has two hierarchies, H1 and H2, and each hierarchy has a consolidatedelement named US. Previously, a modeler would need to replicate statements to specify a rule calculationfor US, as in the following example:
['Dimension':'H1':'US'] = C:<formula>;['Dimension':'H2':'US'] = C:<formula>;
In the above example, the <formula> are identical. You can now write a single statement that triggers oneither of the US elements by using the extended rule area grammar.
To illustrate, you need to understand how area definitions, AND operators, and OR operators work.

Area definitions
An area definition is an expression in square brackets, comprising the left side of a cube rule statement.For example:
[ 'element' ] = <formula>;
The above statement is eligible for evaluation when a cell retrieval request includes 'element' amongthe cell coordinates. The statement is eligible because the cube's rule file might have other statementsupstream that take precedence. To simplify the concept, remember that if the above were the only rulestatement for this cube, then it's guaranteed that the statement will be evaluated as long as 'element'is among the cell retrieval coordinates.
AND Operator
An area definition can contain a comma-separated list of element references. Such a list represents anAND operator that further restricts the eligibility of the rule statement. For example:
['element', 'measure1' ] = <formula>;
This statement is eligible only if both 'element' AND 'measure1' coincide among the cell retrievalcoordinates. In typical practice, if there were two rule statements, one with area ['element'] and theother with the area ['element', 'measure1'], the latter statement would be placed upstream in therule file. This way, coordinates with ['element'] and any other measure than 'measure1' wouldtrigger evaluation of the ['element'] rule while those that have the 'measure1' in addition would runthe more specific statement. If these statements were in the opposite order, then the ['element','measure1'] statement would never run, it is shadowed by the more general statement above it.
OR Operator
The top-level comma-separated list of terms inside the enclosing [] characters of the area definitionrepresent coordinates that must appear together in the retrieval coordinates to make that rule statementeligible. In the above examples, the terms are simple element references like 'element' and'measure1'. But each term can optionally be list, enclosed in curly braces {}, that represent differentelements from the same dimension. These list terms must be simple element references and theyrepresent alternatives each of which would make the statement eligible if they appear in the retrievalcoordinates. This is an OR operation, as illustrated by this example:
['element', { 'measure1', 'measure2' } ] = <formula>;
The above area definition specifies that if the retrieval coordinates include 'element' from itsdimension, AND ( 'measure1' OR 'measure2' from the measures dimension) then the rule statementis eligible.
Dimension and Hierarchy Qualification
Previously, dimension qualification of element references is recommended, though it is also optional.Dimension qualification of an example above would look like this:
[ 'Products':'element', 'Measures':{ 'measure1', 'measure2' } ] = <formula>;
The terms in the AND list must be from different dimensions of the cube, while the terms in the OR listmust be from the same dimension.
Hierarchy qualification is now recommended, for example:
[ 'Products':'H2':'element', 'Flavors':'H1':{ 'flavor1', 'flavor2' } ] = <formula>;

However, the OR operator {} is limited to elements within the same hierarchy. It should be more generalthan this, since elements from different hierarchies of the same dimension, are still elements from thesame dimension.
You can now take advantage of more flexible use of the OR operator in rule area definitions.
Examples
The following examples illustrate the various permitted forms of the OR {} operator.
The following examples show an unqualified OR list, and a dimension qualified OR list. In all cases, theelements in the list must resolve to being from the same dimension.
{ 'e1', 'e2' }'d':{'e1', 'e2' }
The following examples are just like the previous set of examples but now include the ability to have a listqualifier that is both dimension and hierarchy qualified. The elements in the list must come from the samedimension. But there is no ability to provide an explicit hierarchy-qualified list that mixes elements fromdifferent hierarchies of the dimension.
{ 'e1', 'e2' }'d':{ 'e1', 'e2' }'d':'h':{ 'e1', 'e2' }
The following three examples show the ability to provide dimension and hierarchy qualification inside anunqualified list. The list elements must come from the same dimension, but now they can explicitly mixhierarchies of the same dimension. If a list qualifier is present, then this restricts what kind ofqualification is allowed inside the list:
{ 'e1', 'e2' }{ 'd':'e1', 'd':'e2' }{ 'd':'h1':'e1', 'd':'h2':'e2' }
In the following two examples, the list elements are restricted to being at most hierarchy qualified. Athree-part name won't compile because the dimension is already expressed by the list qualifier.
'd':{ 'e1', 'e2' }'d':{ 'h1':'e1', 'h2':'e2' }
The following example is in the current form.
'd':'h':{ 'e1', 'e2' }
Delete a cubeYou can use the DELETE operation to remove a cube.
Any GET action for a specific entity can be replaced with a DELETE action if the logged in user has theappropriate permissions. In the following example, the 'plan_BudgetPlan' cube is deleted with the sameresource path as would be used with a GET action.
DELETE /api/v1/Cubes('plan_BudgetPlan')
You can confirm a DELETE action by attempting a GET action on the same resource path, which returns anerror message if the deletion was successful:
{"error":{"code":"","message":"'plan_BudgetPlan' can not be found in collection of type 'Cube'."}}

Context dimensions and membersContext dimensions filter the context of a grid but do not appear on the rows or columns.
Row and column dimensions display all of their list items in the grid, but context dimensions limit theitems in the grid by displaying only information related to the active item in the dimension.
Traverse a cube to view dimensionsYou can use the following GET request to display values in a view:
GET /api/v1/Cubes('Metrics cube-Sales')/Views('Metrics cube-Sales') ?$expand=tm1.NativeView/Titles/Subset($expand=Elements($select=Name))
The results indicate the titles of the dimension subsets and members used in the view:

These values correspond to the dimension titles and members in the pivot table example:
You can also stack $expand options in the same way a $select option can be stacked and return thecolumns, rows, and titles in the same expression:

Create a dimensionTo create a dimension, specify the context of the dimension in the resource path of the URL and use aPOST operation.
In the following example, a Dimension is created:
POST /api/v1/Dimensions { "Name": "my_plan_department", "UniqueName": "[my_plan_department]", "Attributes": { "Caption": "My plan department" } }

The structure of the new entity must conform to the schema rules that are defined in the $metadatadocument from the server. If successful, a 201 Created HTTP response is returned, in addition to thenewly created entity:
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Dimensions/$entity", "Name": "my_plan_department", "UniqueName": "[my_plan_department]", "Attributes": { "Caption": "My plan department" }}
Add a dimension to a cubeTo add an dimension to an existing cube, you need to obtain the context of the cube, where it is contained,and specify POST data that defines the structure of the new item based on the rules that are defined inthe server's metadata document.
To create a new dimension in a cube for example, the cube must be specified in the resource path of theURL and the structure of the new dimension must be specified in the POST operation:
POST /api/v1/Cubes{ "Name": "test_cube", "Dimensions": [ { "Name": "test_cube_post_insert_dimension_1", }, { "Name": "test_cube_post_insert_dimension_2", } ]}
The resource context of the POST operation and the new dimension are returned in the result.
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Dimensions/$entity", "Name": "Sample dimension", "UniqueName": "[Sample dimension]", "Attributes": { "Caption": "Sample dimension" }}
Delete a dimensionYou can use the DELETE operation to remove a dimension.
The following example removes the 'Q1-2005' element from the time dimension. If you remove adimension, it removes any relationships it had with other entities.
DELETE /api/v1/Dimensions('plan_Time')/Hierarchies('plan_Time')/Elements('Q1-2005')
A successful DELETE action returns 204 No Content in the HTTP response header and an empty body.

Create a cube with dimensions and elementsYou can create an empty cube initially and then later populate it with dimensions and elements, or youcan create a cube with dimensions and elements.
To create a cube and specify the contents of the new cube, specify the context, understand the structurefrom the $metadata document, and use a POST operation.
To understand the schema rules for a cube, review the definition of the Cube entity in the $metadatadocument:
<EntityType Name="Cube"> <Key> <PropertyRef Name="Name" /> </Key> <Property Name="Name" Nullable="false" Type="Edm.String" /> <Property Name="Rules" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.String" /> <Property Name="LastSchemaUpdate" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.DateTimeOffset" /> <Property Name="LastDataUpdate" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.DateTimeOffset" /> <Property Name="Attributes" Type="ibm.tm1.api.v1.Attributes" /> <NavigationProperty Name="Dimensions" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.Dimension)" /> <NavigationProperty ContainsTarget="true" Name="Views" Partner="Cube" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.View)" /> <NavigationProperty ContainsTarget="true" Name="PrivateViews" Partner="Cube" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.View)" /> <NavigationProperty Name="Annotations" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.Annotation)" /> <NavigationProperty ContainsTarget="true" Name="LocalizedAttributes" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.LocalizedAttributes)" /> </EntityType>
The Nullable attribute identifies the required properties. The Type attribute identifies whether theproperty is one of the built-in types or a type specific to the TM1 vocabulary. Follow each Type propertythat is specified by the NavigationProperty elements to determine the structure of the entities thatare contained within the cube. For example, the Dimensions navigation property is defined as containingitems of type Dimension:
<EntityType Name="Dimension"> <Key> <PropertyRef Name="Name" /> </Key> <Property Name="Name" Nullable="false" Type="Edm.String" /> <Property Name="UniqueName" Nullable="true" Type="Edm.String" /> <Property Name="Attributes" Type="ibm.tm1.api.v1.Attributes" /> <NavigationProperty ContainsTarget="true" Name="Hierarchies" Partner="Dimension" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.Hierarchy)" /> <NavigationProperty ContainsTarget="true" Name="LocalizedAttributes"

Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.LocalizedAttributes)" /></EntityType>
For each entity that is contained within the entity in context, and identified by the navigation property'sType value, traverse the model until the full structure of the entity is understood.
In the following example, a simple cube is created with a minimal number of hierarchies and elements:
POST /api/v1/Cubes
{ "Name": "test_cube_post_dimensions_deep_insert_cube", "Dimensions": [ { "Name": "test_cube_post_insert_dimension_1", "Hierarchies": [ { "Name": "test_cube_post_insert_dimension_1", "Elements": [ { "Name": "test_element_d1e1" }, { "Name": "test_element_d1e2" } ] } ] }, { "Name": "test_cube_post_insert_dimension_2", "Hierarchies": [ { "Name": "test_cube_post_insert_dimension_2", "Elements": [ { "Name": "test_element_d2e1" }, { "Name": "test_element_d2e2" } ] } ] } ]}
After a successful POST operation, the context and the new entity that is created are returned in theresponse:
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Cubes/$entity", "Name": "test_cube_post_dimensions_deep_insert_cube", "Rules": "", "LastSchemaUpdate": "2014-05-06T17:58:49.296Z", "LastDataUpdate": "2014-05-06T17:58:49.135Z", "Attributes": { "Caption": "test_cube_post_dimensions_deep_insert_cube" }

CellsetsA cellset is the result of an execution of a view or an MDX expression, representing a snapshot of yourdata in a certain point in time. You can use the cellset ID within a session instead of running a view or MDXexpression multiple times.
When a view is executed, a snapshot of the data in the cube at a certain point in time is displayed basedon the dimensions specified for the view.
Find cell values in a cellsetYou can use the $expand query option to return all of the cell values in the cellset. To retrieve columnsand rows, see “Column and row dimensions” on page 136.
POST /api/v1/Cubes('Metrics cube-Sales')/Views('Metrics cube-Sales')/tm1.Execute?$expand=Cells
Returns the cell values, starting at ordinal 0, for the view specified.

Run a view and expand the cellsetsThe service $metadata document defines actions and specifies where the actions can be applied in thedata model.
The Execute action is bound to the View entity type and provides a snapshot of the contents of the view(cellsets) at the point in time that the action runs:
POST /api/v1/Cubes('plan_BudgetPlan')/Views('plan_budget_input')/tm1.Execute
The result of the action provides the value of the ID property of the Cellset:
{ "@odata.context": "../../$metadata#Cellsets/$entity", "ID":"DWjRKwMCAIAFAAAg"}
Only the ID property is included in the result because the ID is the only primitive property that is definedfor a Cellset.
Add the $expand option to include the values and ordinals of the cells within the cellset:
POST /api/v1/Cubes('plan_BudgetPlan')/Views('plan_budget_input')/ tm1.Execute?$expand=Cells
Expand the cells to display the value of all the cells in the cellset in the result. Use $top and $skip tominimize the number of cells returned.

Get the cells of a cellset in multiple partitionsYou can use the bound function GetPartition to get the cells of a cellset in multiple partitions.
You can use the GetPartition function to manage processing of area of the crosstab based on adefined boundary.
The cells property of the cellset can be used with the bound functionGetPartition( Begin=<ordinal>,End=<ordinal>) in a Get. For example:

In this example, (Begin=0,End=10) gives you the column : cells 0,2,4,6,8,10.
If you supply (Begin=1,End=10), you get cells 0-11.
Use $top and $skip to minimize the number of cells returned.
Preview a datasourceYou can use the REST API actions ExecuteCubeDrillthrough andExecuteRelationalDrillthrough to preview a datasource.
These actions takes two parameters:
• A TI Process• The parameters for executing the TI Process
The TI Process can be a reference to an existing Process or a transient one. The parameters are optional.
The process of the ExecuteCubeDrillthrough returns a view handle that is used by the action to acreate a Cellset. The process of the ExecuteRelationalDrillthrough returns an SQL or CSVhandle that is converted to a collection of DrillthroughRows.

Update a single cell valueYou can update a single cell value by using the PATCH operation.
To update the value of the cell, determine the value of the ID property of the cellset that the cell belongsto, and determine whether it is a value that can be updated.
POST /api/v1/Cubes('plan_Budgetplan')/Views('Budget input detailed')/ tm1.Execute?$expand=Cells($select=Ordinal,FormattedValue,Consolidated)
The request in the previous example returns the cells in the cellset as shown below.
{ "@odata.context": "../../$metadata#Cellsets(Cells(Ordinal,FormattedValue,Consolidated))/$entity", "ID": "DWjRKwMCAIAFAAAg", "Cells": [ { "Ordinal": 0, "FormattedValue": "938,285", "Consolidated": true }, { "Ordinal": 1, "FormattedValue": "315,513", "Consolidated": false }, { "Ordinal": 2, "FormattedValue": "311,041", "Consolidated": false }, ...
The Consolidated property identifies if the value is a result of an aggregation or other operation basedon other cell values. If the property is true, you cannot change the value unless Updateable=true. If aconsolidated value is updateable, you can update the value with a spreading command.
If the property is set to Consolidated=false, use a PATCH operation to update the cell, specifying theordinal and the new value.
PATCH /api/v1/Cellsets('DWjRKwMCAIAFAAAg')/Cells
[ { "Ordinal": 1, "Value": 315999 } ]
To verify that the cell is updated properly, repeat the GET operation.
Update many cell valuesYou can use the Update action to update multiple cells.
Since 10.2.RP2.FP4, the following Update actions are available:
• An Update (Cellset) action that is bound to the cellset• An Update (Cube) action that is directly bound to the cube• An Update (Cube) action that isn't bound to anything

![Page 155: Version 11 Release 1 IBM Cognos TM1 · PDF fileTo find documentation on the web, ... documentation about the provider of an OData web service (also referred to as an OData endpoint)](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022082200/5a852fff7f8b9a87368c97e6/html5/thumbnails/155.jpg)
These actions let you update one cell at a time. This cell can be a consolidated cell when you are using aspreading command. When you use the Update action on a cellset, the cellset also defines the bounds ofsome of the spreading commands and the cell ordinal can be used to specify which cell in the cube needsto be updated. The other two versions of the Update action require you to specify the cell by usingelements references instead.
The Update(Cube) actions accept an array of sets of arguments. You can make multiple updates in onerequest, as if you had called the same Update action multiple times.
Note: Using an Update action with an array of arguments is not OData compliant and therefore thisapproach is not documented in the metadata document.
Delete a cellsetIf you run a view or MDX expression multiple times, it can yield different results each time and can havean impact on memory resources. After operations on a cellset finish, you must delete the cellset if you donot end the session, as shown in the following example:
DELETE /api/vi/Cellsets('ID#')
When a session ends, the cellset is deleted automatically, if it is not explicitly deleted beforehand.
ElementsAn element identifies the location of a cell in a cube and the position of the element within a dimension.
Retrieve elements by supplying either alias or invariant nameThe REST APIs use a built-in generic function, called subList that takes a set of entities as the input andbased on the keys that are specified in the Keys parameter, returns a list of items from the sourcecollection. That is, it uses the collection to which the function was bound or called upon, containing oneentity per Key entry and null if such an entity cannot be found. Therefore, the response format for the listis the same as for the source collection, which takes into account that the returned list can contain nulls,even if the source collection wasn't nullable. The Keys parameter is a JSON array and cannot be passed inplace but must be passed as a query option by using a parameter alias.
Example 1:
GET ~/api/v1/Dimensions/tm1.subList(Keys=@keys)?@keys=["Customers","Products","Non-Existing-Dimension",{"Name":"Customers"},"T i M e "]
From all the dimensions in the model, example 1 returns the Customers dimension, the Productsdimension, a null (you don't have the "Non-Existing-Dimension" dimension), the Customers dimensionagain (note: the object notation that represents the Keys, in this case just the Name, is allowed as well)and lastly, the Time dimension. Names, like resolution of entities themselves, are case- and space-insensitive and resolve aliases for those objects that support aliases.
Example 2:
GET ~/api/v1/Dimensions('Time')/Hierarchies('Quarters')/Elements/tm1.subList(Keys=@Keys)?@Keys=["Q1-1997","Q2-1997","Q3-1997","Q4-1997","Q5-1997"]
Form the Quarters hierarchy of the Time dimension's elements, example 2 returns the four quarters of1997 plus a null because Q5 doesn't exist.

Example 3:
GET ~/api/v1/Dimensions('Time')/Hierarchies('Time')/Edges/tm1.subList(Keys=@Keys)?@Keys=[{"ParentName":"Q1-1997","ComponentName":"01-1997"},{"ParentName":"Q1-1997","ComponentName":"04-1997"},{"ParentName":"Q2-1997","ComponentName":"04-1997"}]
For entity types that have multi-part keys (currently only Edges in TM1), you can use the object notation topair the keys to be used to look up entries. Example 3 returns three items. The second item is nullbecause the fourth month is not a child of the first quarter and therefore this edge does not exist.
Example 4:
GET ~/api/v1/Dimensions('Time')/Hierarchies('Time')/Levels(1)/Members/tm1.subList(Keys=@Keys)?@Keys=["1996","Q3-1996","1997","Q1-1997"]
Example 4 shows that the source set limits the entities that are returned. Level 1 of the Time hierarchyhas years only in the NorthWind sample database. Therefore, requesting a couple of years and quartersresults in nulls for the quarters even though the members by themselves exists in the hierarchy but not inthe level.
Using invalid JSON for the Keys parameter results in a 400 Invalid Request with an Invalid JSON message.Using incorrect types for the Keys parameter results in either an error message because the type is notacceptable as a key or results in null entries because the mapping to the actual keys and the lookupdoesn't render any valid entities.
You can use GET on this function, which is by convention. You can also use POST. You must keep in mindthat this is a function, therefore the open and close parentheses are required and the response is a 200OK (not 201 Created) because the request is not creating any new entries.
Using POST instead of GET in example 1 would look like:
POST ~/api/v1/Dimensions/tm1.subList(){"Keys":["Customers","Products","Non-Existing-Dimension",{"Name":"Customers"},"T i M e "]}
Update all elements in a static setYou can execute a PUT on the reference of the subset element collection to update the collection. You canexecute a DELETE on the reference of the collection to empty the collection. The $filter query option canbe used to specify which element should be removed.
This capability is a partial implementation of OData v4.01 11.4.6.4 on subset element collections.
A successful PUT request to a collection-valued navigation property’s reference resource replaces the setof related entities. The request body of the PUT must be a collection of entity references to elements ofthe hierarchy containing the subset.
For example, this request:
PUT /api/v1/Dimensions('D1')/Hierarchies('D1')/Subsets('S1')/Elements/$ref[ { "@odata.id": "Dimensions('D1')/Hierarchies('D1')/Elements('E3')" }, { "@odata.id": "Dimensions('D1')/Hierarchies('D1')/Elements('E4')" }, { "@odata.id": "Dimensions('D1')/Hierarchies('D1')/Elements('E5')" }]
Has the following expected response:
{ "@odata.context":"../../../../$metadata#Collection($ref)", "value":

A successful DELETE request to a collection-valued navigation property’s reference resource removes allrequested references from the collection. You can use the $filter query option to specify elements toremove.
For example, the following request is a filtered delete that deletes all elements named E3 in the S2 subsetof the D1 dimension:
DELETE /api/v1/Dimensions('D1')/Hierarchies('D1')/PrivateSubsets('S2')/Elements/$ref?$filter=Name eq 'E3'
ChoresChores act like any other entity in the TM1 REST API. You can use create, read, update, and deleteoperations on chores. You can also execute a chore.
Chores are a container object for a set of TM1 processes. You can run processes in a certain order andschedule processes to be run at a certain time by using chores. For details, see Scheduling a Process forAutomatic Execution with Chores.
The Chore, ChoreTask, and ChoreReference entity types are used to perform the following actionswith the TM1 REST API:
• Retrieve a definition of an existing Chore (subjected to security context)• Retrieve the chore's basic properties• Retrieve the chore's tasks (by using a ChoreTask)• Retrieve the chore's execution mode• Retrieve a set of chores (subjected to security context)• Filter a set of chores (subjected to security context)• Retrieve a set of chore properties (subjected to security context)• Create a chore (subjected to security context)• Modify an existing chore (subjected to security context)• Modify a chore's basic properties• Add a chore task• Remove a chore task
The following examples demonstrate how to use chores in the TM1 REST API. These operations areavailable with 10.2.2 FP2. For these examples to work, two TurboIntegrator processes need to be inplace, myProcess1 and myProcess2. To learn how to add a TurboIntegrator process to your TM1 model,see Creating a TurboIntegrator Process in the TM1 TurboIntegrator documentation and “Create an entity(HTTP POST)” on page 3.

Functions and actionsThe TM1 entity model exposes various functions and actions that are specific to TM1.
Actions and functions are defined in the TM1 Entity Data Model (EDM) and describe operations that canbe performed against the model. All functions and actions are defined according to the rules that aredefined in OData Version 4 for custom operation. For more information, see Chapter 4, “Metadata,” onpage 13.
Functions in OData (edm:Function) are operations that do not have any observable side effects andmust return a single or multiple instances of a type that is specified by the functions edm:ReturnTypeelement. For more information about TM1 functions, see Functions.
An action (edm:Action) is an operation in OData that might have an observable side effect in an entitymodel and might return a value if an edm:ReturnType element is defined for the action. For moreinformation about TM1 actions, see “Actions” on page 90.
Each <Action> and <Function> element contains an IsBound attribute for which the default value isfalse. If an action or function is defined as IsBound=true, the operation can be invoked only on thefirst element defined as a parameter for that operation. For example, the Execute action is bound to aView entity, meaning that the action can be performed only on that type of entity:
<Action Name="Execute" IsBound="true"> <Parameter Name="View" Type="ibm.tm1.api.v1.View" Nullable="false"/> <Parameter Name="Titles" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.Element)" Nullable="true"/> <Parameter Name="SuppressEmptyColumns" Type="Edm.Boolean" Nullable="true"/> <Parameter Name="SuppressEmptyRows" Type="Edm.Boolean" Nullable="true"/> <ReturnType Type="ibm.tm1.api.v1.Cellset" Nullable="false"/></Action>
In the CSDL file, the Execute action is also defined in the context of a Process entity. This is the sameas overloading in many programming languages, and indicates that this action can be invoked againsteither type of entity:
<Action Name="Execute" IsBound="true"> <Parameter Name="Process" Type="ibm.tm1.api.v1.Process" Nullable="false"/> <Parameter Name="Parameters" Type="Collection(ibm.tm1.api.v1.NameValuePair)" Nullable="true"/> </Action>
Bound functions and actions support overloading according to the rules defined in the ODataspecification.

In the previous example, because the action is bound to the View entity, it can be invoked only in thatcontext:
/api/v1/Cubes('MyCube')/Views('MyView')/tm1.Execute
An operation that is imported into the API entity container (<EntityContainer Name="API">) isunbound and can be addressed at the root level, but only on the type of entity set that is defined for thataction. In the following example, the ExecuteMDX action can be invoked only on the Cellsets entitytype:
<ActionImport Name="ExecuteMDX" Action="ibm.tm1.api.v1.ExecuteMDX" EntitySet="Cellsets"/>
As a result, the action does not require an entity to be in context, and can be specified at the root level ofthe API:
/api/v1/ExecuteMDX()
For more information, use the following resources:
• OData Version 4: 11.5 Operations• OData Version 4: 12.1.2 Attribute IsBound
Options and filtersYou can use pagination query options to limit the results of your query and you can use filtering options tomanage the results of your query.
For more information about options and filters, use the following ODATA references:
• 5.1.2 System Query Option $expand• 5.1.5 System Query Options $top and $skip• 5.1.1 System Query Option $filter• 5.1.1.4.3 startswith
Pagination query optionsYou can use pagination query options to limit the results of your query.
For queries that return many results, the OData specification provides navigation options to limit andmanipulate the results by using pagination system query options, such as $top and $skip.
To limit the size of the results, use the $top option.

The $skip option sets the beginning of the list returned to the specified value.
Cubes?$select=Name&$top=2&$skip=2
In this example, the next two cube names (the third and fourth cubes) are listed in the results.
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Cubes", "value": [ { "Name": "plan_Control" }, { "Name": "plan_ExchangeRate" } ]}
Filter expressionsYou can use filtering options to manage the results of your query.
The OData specification includes a number of filtering options to manage result output. For moreinformation, see 5.1.1 System Query Option $filter.
To list dimensions where the name of the dimensions begins with the string plan, use the startswithfunction:
Dimensions?$filter=startswith(Name,'plan')&$top=2
To limit the size of the results, use the $top query option.
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Dimensions", "value": [ { "Name": "plan_business_unit", "UniqueName": "[plan_business_unit]", "Attributes": { "Caption": "plan_business_unit" } }, { "Name": "plan_chart_of_accounts", "UniqueName": "[plan_chart_of_accounts]", "Attributes": { "Caption": "plan_chart_of_accounts" } } ]}
The following example returns TM1 control cubes, which are identified by names that begin with the "}"character.

Attributes and localizationYou can localize an IBM TM1 Server by assigning locale-specific values to attributes that are associatedwith cubes, dimensions, views, TI processes, subsets, and elements.
For TM1 Server to return the localized caption value for a view, subset, or TI process, the Captionattribute must be added if it does not exist. This Caption attribute can be set up as a Text type or as anAlias type. When this attribute is of type Alias, TM1 enforces the uniqueness of its values, and you canuse the Caption value to search for the associated TM1 object. When this Caption attribute is just aText type, its values are for displaying locale-specific caption and cannot be used in searching for TM1Objects.
TM1 Server uses international language codes that are defined by ISO 639-1 to identify major languagesand the IETF language tag in assigning locale-specific value. For example, "fr" is for French and "fr-FR" isfor French (France). When you assign a localized value to an attribute, it is only necessary to assign to themajor language code, for example, for "fr". TM1 Server automatically retrieves the value for the majorlanguage if it is asked for a specific locale such as "fr-FR" or "fr-CA" if values associated to those localesdo not exist. By default, if no localized values are found for an attribute, the base default attribute value isreturned.
Create Attributes and Captions for an entityYou can assign localized values to any attribute for all language locales, as elements in the }Culturescontrol dimension.
To change the set of locales, you can remove unused locales or add new ones. Make sure that youmaintain any locales references as parent locales.
Follow these steps to add attributes and localized values that are associated with those attributes byusing the TM1 REST API. In this example, the attributes and localized values are added to a cube, but thesame steps apply to other entities as well.
1. Create a }CubeAttributes dimension and specify the set of attributes that are associated withcubes.
Although the Caption attribute is built in, it needs to physically exist only if you want to explicitlyspecify values for it. In this example, to localize the Caption attribute you must explicitly add it.

PATCH /api/v1/Cellsets('DWjRKwMCAICHAAAg')/Cells
[ { "Ordinal": 0, "Value": "Budget Kubus" }]
9. Set the language setting in your browser to Dutch (nl) and validate that the caption is set correctly.
GET /api/v1/Cubes('plan_budgetPlanLineItem')
The localized value for the Caption must be returned in the result.
{ "@odata.context": "$metadata#Cubes/$entity", "Name": "plan_BudgetPlan", ... "LastSchemaUpdate": "2014-05-07T02:27:39.088Z", "LastDataUpdate": "2014-05-05T15:17:29.568Z", "Attributes": { "Caption": "Budget Kubus" }}
To optimize performance and combine steps “7” on page 156 and “8” on page 157, you can execute aPOST query to create a localized attribute if the locale ID exists. If the locale ID that you supply exists andis supported by TM1 Server but the attribute does not exist, the localized attribute is created using thatlocale ID and then the localized value is added. If the locale ID does not exist, an exception is thrown. Thefollowing example creates a localized attribute for the caption.
POST /api/v1/Cubes('plan_BudgetPlan')/LocalizedAttributes
{ "LocaleID":"en", "Attributes": { "Caption": "Budget Plan" }}
Use TurboIntegrator functionsYou can use TurboIntegrator functions to create localized attributes.
If you want your applications to automatically display captions of cubes, dimensions, views,TurboIntegrator processes, subsets, and elements with the right locale, you can set up the Captionattribute by using TurboIntegrator functions. The Caption attribute can be either text or alias.
Note: The PullInvalidationSubsets parameter in the tms1.cfg file must be enabled. To minimize lockcontention, you should review your existing TurboIntegrator processes to use temporary Views andSubsets where applicable.

View attributes
You can use the following functions to create and update view attributes:
• ViewAttrInsert( <cubeName>, <prevAttrName>, <newAttrName>, <attrType> )
• ViewAttrDelete( <cubeName>, <attrName> )
• ViewAttrPutS( <stringValue>, <cubeName>, <viewName>, <attrName>, [localeLangCode] )
• ViewAttrPutN( <numericValue>, <cubeName>, <viewName>, <attrName>, [localeLangCode] )
Each of these functions returns 1 for success, 0 for failure or throws an exception. The[localeLangCode] parameter is optional. When the [localeLangCode] parameter not specified invalue or left out altogether, the base attribute value is updated.
Any attribute can have a value assigned to it with a specific language or language locale code by using theoptional language code as a parameter. Using the Caption attribute as an example, you can use thefollowing sequence to create the attribute and assign the value with the "fr" language code:
ViewAttrInsert('plan_BudgetPlan', '', 'Caption', 'S' )
ViewAttrPutS( 'Entrée budgétaire détaillée', 'plan_budgetPlan', 'Budget Input Detailed', 'fr' )
The call is repeated for each view and for each of the language locales for that view.
Note: You use this function only for the view where a localized attribute value is desired. The default valueis returned for other views. In addition, in the view caption case, if there are no attribute values defined inthe base attribute, the initial design invariant name is returned.
Subset Attributes
You can use the following functions to create and update subset attributes:
• SubsetAttrInsert( <dimensionName>, <prevAttrName>, <newAttrName>, <attrType> )
• SubsetAttrDelete( <dimensionName>, <attrName> )
• SubsetAttrPutS( <stringValue>, <dimensionName>, <subsetName>, <attrName>, [localeLangCode] )
• SubsetAttrPutN( <numericValue>, <dimensionName>, <subsetName>, <attrName>, [localeLangCode] )
Each of these functions returns 1 for success, 0 for failure or throws an exception. The[localeLangCode] parameter is optional. When the [localeLangCode] is not specified in value orleft out altogether, the base attribute value is updated.

Any attribute can have a value assigned to it with a specific language or language locale code using theoptional language code as a parameter. Using the Caption attribute as an example, you can use thefollowing sequence to create the attribute and assign the value with the "fr" language code:
SubsetAttrInsert( 'plan_business_unit', '', 'Caption', 'S')
SubsetAttrPutS( 'Toutes les unités d''affaires', 'plan_business_unit', 'All Business Units', 'fr' )
SubsetAttrPutS() is called for each subset and for each of the language locales for that subset.
Note: You use this function only for the subset where a localized attribute value is desired. The defaultvalue is returned for other subsets. In addition, in the subset caption case, if there are no attribute valuesdefined in the base attribute, the initial design invariant name is returned.
Process Attributes
You can use the following functions to create and update process attributes:
• ProcessAttrInsert( <prevAttrName>, <newAttrName>, <attrType> )
• ProcessAttrDelete( <attrName> )
• ProcessAttrPutS( <stringValue>, <processName>, <attrName>, [localeLangCode] )
• ProcessAttrPutN( <numericValue>, <processName>, <attrName>, [localeLangCode] )
Each of these functions returns 1 for success, 0 for failure or throws an exception. The[localeLangCode] parameter is optional. When the [localeLangCode] is not specified in value orleft out altogether, the base attribute value is updated.
Any attribute can have a value assigned to it with a specific language or language locale code using theoptional language code as a parameter. Using the Caption attribute as an example, you can use thefollowing sequence to create the attribute and assign the value with the "fr" language code:

ProcessAttrPutS( 'planifier la langue', 'plan_set_language', 'fr' )
ProcessAttrPutS() is called for each process and for each of the desired language locales for thatprocess.
Note: You use this function only for the process where a localized attribute value is desired. The defaultvalue is returned for other processes. In addition, in the process caption case, if there are no attributevalues defined in the base attribute, the initial design invariant name is returned.

Chapter 6. TM1 settingsYou can use the Logger entity type and ServerSettings entity types to retrieve and update TM1 logfile settings.
Retrieve, update, and delete tm1s-log.properties file settings
The Logger entity type and the entity set /api/v1/Loggers represent the tm1s-log.propertiesfile. Each logger has a name, which corresponds with the logger name in the tm1s-log.properties file.For example, the logger named "TM1.API.Parameters" has the same name as a Logger entity. Eachlogger has a log level, which corresponds to the log levels that are set in the tm1s-log.properties file.
Loggers are all present in the entity set, even if they're not specified in tm1s-log.properties file. Toset the level, use a PATCH request on the logger:
PATCH /api/v1/Loggers('TM1.API.Parameters'){ "Level" : "Debug" }
You can use a DELETE request to remove a logger setting. The logger remains in the entity set. This isuseful if you want the logger setting to revert to inheriting its level from a parent logger. For example,TM1.API is a parent of TM1.API.Parameters.
Retrieve and update tm1s.cfg file settings
The ServerSettings entity type represents the tm1s.cfg file settings. The following types cover thepublicly documented tm1s.cfg file settings:
“AccessSettings” on page 67
• NetworkSettings• AuthenticationSettings• SSLSettings• CAMSettings• LDAPSettings• CAPISettings• HTTPSettings
“AdministrationSettings” on page 67

• MemorySettings• MTQSettings• LockingSettings• ViewCalculationSettings• StargateSettings• JobQueuingSettings
The EDM schema has two root level instances of the ServerSettings entity type, /api/v1/ActiveConfiguration and /api/v1/StaticConfiguration.
ActiveConfiguration is read-only, and represents the current state of the server, not necessarily whatexists in the tm1s.cfg file. Many parameters are static and need a server restart for changes to takeeffect.
StaticConfiguration can be written with PATCH requests to modify the tm1s.cfg file. The PATCHrequest triggers a config refresh, and if the updated parameter is dynamic, ActiveConfiguration isupdated to reflect the change. StaticConfiguration always reflects what is in the tm1s.cfg file.

Chapter 7. TroubleshootingThe following section describes common troubleshooting scenarios and HTTP status codes.
HTTP status codes
The TM1 REST API uses standard HTTP/1.1 protocol to communicate between the client and the server.This means that requests and responses follow the conventions for this protocol, in addition to the rulesidentified by the OData specification. For specific details about the common response status codes andtheir meaning, see Section 9 of OData Version 4.0 Part 1: Protocol.
Response status codes from the server typically fall into one of the following categories:
• 2xx range typically indicates a successful operation• 3xx range identifies redirection while 304 is returned when the client issues a GET request and content
has not changed when using If-Match or If-None-Match• 4xx range is generally an error in the client request, such as a malformed request• 5xx status is likely an error on the part of the TM1 server
In addition to HTTP status codes, you might receive an error message from the TM1 server that identifiesmore details. For example, if you try to create an entity when an entity with the same name exists, theserver issues a 400 status code, and the following message in JSON format is included in the responsebody:
{"error":{"code":"","message":"A dimension named my_new_department2 already exists."}}
The error message can provide additional information to help you diagnose the error.
405 Method Not Allowed
Trying to perform an operation on an entity when the operation is invalid for that context results in a 405error from the server. In the response header, a list of valid operations is listed in an Allow header:
Status Code: 405Content-Type: text/plainContent-Length: 0Connection: keep-aliveAllow: GET, POST, PATCH, DELETE, OPTIONSOData-Version: 4.0
In this example, only GET, POST, PATCH, DELETE, or OPTIONS is allowed on the entity that is specified inthe request.
Monitoring HTTP traffic on the client or server
To help you troubleshoot issues, you can use several tools to debug your issue. HTTP traffic monitoringtools, and REST or web development plug-ins for common web browsers can provide extra details aboutthe requests and responses between the client and server that can help you troubleshoot.
It might also be possible to configure an HTTP monitoring tool as a proxy on the server to monitor alltraffic.

Invalid JSON payload (400)
If you include JSON content in a POST request, you receive an error from the server if the payloadcontains invalid JSON syntax:
{"error":{"code":"","message":"Invalid JSON:"}}
Use a validation tool to ensure that your JSON payload is correctly formatted before you submit a request.

Chapter 8. Appendix 1: TM1 Admin HostThe TM1 Admin Server uses port 5895 for HTTP or port 5898 for HTTPS to communicate with the TM1REST API. These values cannot be changed using IBM Cognos Configuration.
If you need to change the default values, you can modify the \<install directory>\configuration\cogstartup.xml file.
If you are using HTTPS, add the following lines:
<crn:parameter name="tm1AdminHTTPSPortNumber"><crn:value xsi:type="xsd:unsignedShort">[xxxx]</crn:value> </crn:parameter>
If you are not using HTTPS, add the following lines:
<crn:parameter name="tm1AdminHTTPPortNumber"><crn:value xsi:type="xsd:unsignedShort">[xxxx]</crn:value> </crn:parameter>
Where [xxxx] is an available port number.
Restart the TM1 Admin Server and verify the port number settings by specifying http://tm1server:8000/api/v1/Servers in a local browser instance.
The response identifies the available servers in the following form:
{"@odata.context": "$metadata#Servers", "value": [ { "Name": "Planning Sample", "IPAddress": "9.26.42.237", "IPv6Address": "", "PortNumber": 12347, "ClientMessagePortNumber": 0, "HTTPPortNumber": 8000, "UsingSSL": false, "AcceptingClients": true } ]}
Other available servers might also appear, but they don't display the HTTPPortNumber value unlessthese steps are performed on the directories where they reside. The TM1 Admin Server provides theServer Root URL and displays the Servers entity set.
