2. Initiating Transfers (HttpData-Push)

To transfer the data to your desired data sink, navigate to the Contracts page. This page displays all your contract agreements, including both consuming and providing contract agreements. You can easily distinguish between them by the arrow on the left side on each row next to the Contract column (Up = providing, Down = consuming). You can inspect details of your contract agreements, such as the counterpart Connector.

Initiating a Data Transfer (HttpData-Push)

1. Selecting a Contract Agreement

   • Click on a consuming contract agreement to open a detail view displaying details of the contract agreement.

1. Defining Data Sink Properties

   • Click on Transfer to define your data sink properties.

Supported Data Sink Types

There are two data sink types supported:

1. Custom Datasink Config (JSON)

2. REST-API Endpoint

1. Transfer to a REST-API Endpoint

To transfer data to a REST-API endpoint, select an HTTP method and provide the URL of the data sink. You can also add additional headers, such as for authentication.

2. Transfer Data to a Custom Datasink Config (JSON)

For more advanced data-sink endpoints not directly supported by the UI, you can enter your data-sink properties in JSON format.

Example:

{
  "properties": {
    "type": "HttpData",
    "baseUrl": "https://webhook.site/86b9b7e6-eb27-4c5f-b7e5-336d5f157f15"
  }
}

Here, "type": "HttpData" indicates that the EDC will interpret the destination as a REST-API. The baseUrl is the endpoint receiving the data.

Click on Initiate Transfer to send the asset to the desired data sink.
