Hello,

 

I need more input/ information on what are all the scenarios I can use the below rest api call ?

 

POST /transformations/transactdata/< repository >/< workspace >

 

Also, the input here is a file and The 'application/octet-stream' type is used . So, may I know what type of input file should I use ? Will this API call convert my any input file into a streamed data and pass it to a workbench ?

 

Thanks.

I believe the description of the input file parameter is fairly helpful here:

The source dataset that the first reader will be initialized with. This can be any MIME type, except 'multipart' types, which are reserved for future use. The 'application/octet-stream' type is featured here to demonstrate the API call.

Also, note that this parameter is optional.
