Get Hubs

By the end of this task, you will be able to:

• Send a query using Manufacturing Data Model Explorer.
• Request just the properties you need.
• Make sense of the options and fields in the documentation on the hubs query, Hubs object, and Hub objects.

You will use the following queries in this task:

The hubs query returns a Hubs object which contains an array of Hubs objects.

While the Hub object has many fields, for this exercise, we will be requesting the id and the name fields only.

1. In Manufacturing Data Model Explorer, enter the following query in the Query Pane:

Query

  query GetHubs {
  hubs {
    results {
      id
      name
    }
  }
}

2. Click Play. A list of hubs that you have access to is displayed in the response section. It should be similar to the following code-block:

Response

{
 "data": {
   "hubs": {
     "results": [
       {
         "id": "a.YnVzaW5lc3M6YXV0b2Rlc2s2MTA0",
         "name": "L2-Forge-Data-Team"
       },
       {
         "id": "a.YnVzaW5lc3M6YXV0b2Rlc2s0NTA5",
         "name": "Michelangelo’s Playground"
       }
     ]
   }
  }
}

3. Note down the ID of the hubs that you wish to use. You will need this ID for the remaining tasks. For illustration, in this tutorial we have used the ID of the hub named L2-Forge-Data-Team.

After working through the steps mentioned above, you should see a screen similar to the following image.
