Examples for creating Resources and Artifacts other than REST Resources

[sebplorenz]

Hi, the current example at Hands-on IDS Communication shows, how a resource/artifact can be created using a REST Service. Are there other examples for artifact creation? Like serving a local file as an artifact or storing data into the DSC DB and serve the data as a resource/artifact?

Yes, you can set the representation's source type to LOCAL and use the endpoint POST /admin/api/resources/{resource-id}/data to push a string that will be saved directly to the connector's database. Unfortunately, you cannot upload a file directly, you would have to encode it first - open todo on our list.
