Authorizations

Authorization
string
header
required

Access token issued by the CDF project's configured identity provider. Access token must be an OpenID Connect token, and the project must be configured to accept OpenID Connect tokens. Use a header key of 'Authorization' with a value of 'Bearer $accesstoken'. The token can be obtained through any flow supported by the identity provider.

Path Parameters

featureTypeExternalId
string
required

External Id of the feature type provided by client. Must be unique among all feature type external ids within a CDF project.

Maximum string length: 32
Pattern: ^[A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9_]{0,31}$
Example:

"ocean_measures"

Body

required
Required array length: 1 - 1000 elements
allowCrsTransformation
boolean

Optional parameter indicating if input geometry properties should be transformed into the respective Coordinate Reference Systems defined in the feature type specification. If the parameter is true, then input geometries will be transformed when the input and output Coordinate Reference Systems differ. When it is false, then requests with geometries in Coordinate Reference System different from the ones defined in the feature type will result in bad request response code. Transformations apply to property geometries in case of create and update feature, as well as to geometries in spatial filters in search endpoints.

Example:

true

Response

Feature list response.
