Payload fields
What data holds in a new event type or source event, from its JSON Schema. Every event also has the fields of the standard envelope: id, time, subject, place, provenance and more.
| Field | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
data. | Text | The event type's id, e.g. company.registered. |
data. | Text | The event type's name in the catalogue. |
data. | Text, in a list | The countries it is now collected in that it wasn't before (all of them for a new type); XX is the events about the whole world. |
data. | Text | The kind of source it comes from, as the catalogue says it (never a URL). |
data. | Yes or no | True when the type itself is new; false when it is collected in more countries or from a new source. |
Missing something? Just ask: a source, a country or an event type we don’t collect yet. Every request is read, and the most asked for are built first.
