Using the bulk ingestion API

The bulk ingestion API is a RESTful API available in the Infor Data Fabric suite within the API Gateway.

This service enables applications to write data objects directly to storage. It allows applications to produce larger payload sizes that may otherwise exceed throughput limitations in ION.

When using the API, you must include the name of the data object and the logical ID of the source application sending the data. For statistics or troubleshooting, we recommend that you include this information:

The decompressed size of the file
The instance count – the number of records in the file
The source publication date – the date and time of when the data object was published by the source application

This table shows the bulk Ingestion API with the quota policy implemented per tenant:


Method	Calls
/dataobjects	Up to 200 per minute

How to use the API, see the swagger documentation for the endpoint in the ION API suite for Infor Data Fabric.
