Bodyapplication/json
_idstring

Event uuid (for tagging)

categorystringrequired

Event category (for filtering)

Enum"Link""Network""Motion""System"
locArray of objects

Event location

detailobject

Event detail k/v pairs

link_dst_namestring

The friendly name of the link that created the event. This will also be the same identifier that is seen at the beginning of the link_id field.

network_idintegerrequired

Guardian network_id

tsnumber(float)required

UTC timestamp

evt_detected_tsnumber(float)

Present in MotionStoppedEvent. References the UTC timestamp of preceding MotionDetectedEvent.

intensity_windowArray of numbers(float)

Array of float, of length guardian_config.motion_events.density_window -1 (Nominally len 7). Corresponds to the motion intensity values in the integration buffer at the time of the DetectedEvent.

link_idstring

Identifiers of the link that generated a MotionDetectedEvent message in the format of link_dst_name.link_src_name.

loc_namestring

The loc_name field provides a description based the information available as to where motion was likely to have occurred within the network.

tagstring

Event tag. Note that this field is always space-padded to 10 characters.

link_src_namestring

The friendly name of the link that received the event. This will also be the same identifier that is seen at the end of the link_id field.

guardian_idstringrequired

Guardian deviceId

node_idinteger

Database id of this node that generate the event

deviceIdstring

Device identification, such as mac address

node_namestring

Alternative device identification, that can be used by vendor from deviceId

debugobject(MotionStoppedEventDebug)

Motion detection parameters from event generator. Used for debug and sensitivity calibration purposes. Present in MotionStoppedEvent on newer firmware.

armedinteger

Feedback of armed from GuardianConfig.motion_events

If 0, this event will not be stored in history or pushed to the user.

eventstringrequired

Event identifier

Enum"MotionDetectedEvent""MotionStoppedEvent""LinkConnectedEvent""LinkDisconnectedEvent""LinkLowThroughputEvent""LinkCreatedEvent""MemberArrivedEvent""MemberLeftEvent""MemberJoinedEvent""MemberRemovedEvent"
_consumerstring

The consumer for Custom Alerts.

dataobject
