Household Sleep-Wake Times DataDeprecated

Request

This endpoint retrieves the timezone of the user from the network model and supplies it to the micro service. The micro service will return hour values for wake and sleep in the network's timezone.

Security
Authorization
Path
queried_daysinteger[ 1 .. 7 ]required

can be omitted. when omitted defaults to 7

Query
force_pastboolean

Specifically for QA and load validation, this switch if set to true force allows a request sleep data to query the full 7 days back despite the enable time being later than this. The number of queried days will be respected in the path param

Default false
curl -i -X GET \
  'https://docs.cognitivesystems.com/_mock/assets/specs/api/app_cloud/sleep_times/data/{queried_days}?force_past=false' \
