Updating the airing time on a single event

Request

To update a single event's airing time, send a PUT request to:

http://<server>:<port>/cpm/content/v1/events/{eventId}

Headers

  • Content-Type: application/json

Mandatory fields

The mandatory fields depend on the parameter(s) being updated:

  • eventId – the ID of the event to be updated

  • You must also specify airingStartTime, airingEndTime, or both.

Example

A request with this payload updates the airing start and end times of the event with the ID specified in the URL:

JSON
{
   "airingStartTime": "2036-02-01T11:00:00Z",
   "airingEndTime": "2036-02-01T11:10:00Z"
}

Response

A successful request returns an HTTP 200 status and a link to the event(s).

A bad request returns an HTTP 400 status.

All PUT and POST calls to CPM are validated by the Validation Service. If there is a problem with the data you are submitting, you will receive one of the following:

  • Error – the data is invalid, so the request fails.
    The error message will indicate which data is invalid and why.

  • Warning – there is an issue with the data that does not prevent it from being added/updated in CPM, but that you need to be aware of.
    For example, if a mandatory field has no value for a non-primary locale (but the same field for the primary locale does have a value), you will get a warning rather than an error.
    The warning message will indicate which data is invalid and why.

Note that there are still conditions where a request can pass validation, but fail when it reaches CPM, so you must handle such responses in an appropriate way too.

In addition, all such errors and warnings:

  • Are available as a report in Data Warehouse (errors only).

  • Generate alert emails that are sent to the email addresses that were configured when the system was deployed.

Note: this data only becomes available in the report 60–90 minutes after the error occurs (and the email is sent).




Example

A successful request returns a payload that looks like this:

JSON
{
    "self": "/content/v1/events/GLOBAL_event1"
}
