Queries

In GraphQL, a Query is similar to a GET request in traditional APIs, where the client requests data from the server. Clients can pass query parameters to filter or specify the data they need, making queries customizable and efficient. Each query defines what fields to retrieve, and the server responds with only the requested data.

Project Queries

Example use case: A parking management company uses a centralized dashboard to monitor parking occupancy across multiple projects and locations. The dashboard provides a global view of parking availability and usage statistics, helping the company analyze trends, optimize capacity, and make informed decisions on pricing or resource allocation. The query retrieves occupancy data for multiple projects, showing total, available, and occupied spaces.

Code Block
languagegraphql
findProjectOccupancies(
  id: [Int!],
  lat: Float,
  lon: Float,
  distanceMeters: Int,
  networkId: [String!],
  groupId: [Int!],
  levelId: [Int!],
  labels: [String!],
  labelsMatch: LabelsMatch,
  floorNumber: [Int!],
  zoneId: [Int!],
  groupCustomId: [String!],
  limit: Int = 100,
  offset: Int = 0
): [ProjectOccupancy]
Code Block
languagegraphql
{
  findProjectOccupancies(
    projectId: [101, 202, 303]
  ) {
    id
    name
    location {
      lat
      lon
    }
    occupancy {
      total
      available
      occupied
    }
  }
}

Zone Queries

Example use case: A mobile app helps drivers find available parking zones near their current location. The app allows users to specify the maximum distance from their location and shows the available parking spaces in nearby zones.

  findZoneOccupancies(
    lat: 37.7749,
    lon: -122.4194,
    distanceMeters: 5000,
  ) {
    name
    location {
      lat
      lon
    }
    occupancy {
      available
    }
  }
}

Level Queries

Example use case: A parking facility is equipped with digital signage to help drivers locate available parking spaces on different levels. The digital signage system periodically queries the parking management system to retrieve the latest occupancy data for each level and displays the number of available spots on each floor. The system filters by specific zone and project IDs to ensure it only retrieves data for relevant sections of the parking facility.

Code Block
languagegraphql
findLevelOccupancies(
  id: [Int!],
  lat: Float,
  lon: Float,
  distanceMeters: Int,
  networkId: [String!],
  groupId: [Int!],
  labels: [String!],
  labelsMatch: LabelsMatch,
  floorNumber: [Int!],
  zoneId: [Int!],
  projectId: [Int!],
  groupCustomId: [String!],
  limit: Int = 100,
  offset: Int = 0
): [LevelOccupancy]
Code Block
languagegraphql
{
  findLevelOccupancies(
    zoneId: [5],
    projectId: [101],
    floorNumber: [1, 2, 3],

Group Occupancy Queries

Retrieves occupancy information for specific groups of parking spaces. This query is useful for applications that need to monitor specialized parking areas or specific sections within a parking facility.

Example use case: A hotel's concierge application monitors valet parking areas to efficiently manage premium parking services. The app helps valet staff quickly identify available spaces in premium sections when guests arrive, ensuring smooth operation of the valet service. By querying specific groups marked as both "valet" and "premium", the staff can direct drivers to appropriate sections based on current availability and service level requirements.

Position Occupancy Query

Retrieves detailed information about individual parking spaces. This query provides the most granular level of parking data, allowing applications to access specific space characteristics and their current state.

Example use case: A logistics company's dispatch system needs to identify suitable parking spaces for their fleet of trucks in a multi-purpose parking facility. The system queries individual spaces with specific dimensions and characteristics (labeled as "oversized" and "truck") to assign appropriate parking spots during shift planning. This allows dispatchers to allocate specific spaces to drivers based on vehicle type and space characteristics during their route planning process.

Position Queries

Example use case: A mobile app is designed to help drivers locate and navigate to individual parking spots within a parking facility. The app displays a map that shows the exact location of available parking spaces and guides the driver to the nearest free spot. The query retrieves data for individual parking positions, including their occupancy status and location, allowing the app to highlight available spaces on the map.

Mutations and Subscriptions

Subscrption Types

This API enables the creation of subscriptions and provides real-time updates about these subscriptions. There are two types of subscriptions available:

  1. Snapshot Subscriptions: Provide complete occupancy data for the subscribed entities whenever any change occurs.

  2. Update Subscriptions: Provide only the changed occupancy data, making them more efficient for real-time updates.

In GraphQL, a mutation is used to modify or create data on the server, similar to POST, PUT, or DELETE requests in REST APIs. In our use case, mutations are used to create and update subscriptions, allowing clients to manage parking-related subscriptions.

Subscription expiry

Info

The subscription expiry time is automatically extended after each update. To extend a subscription without changing its parameters you should use the keepAliveSubscription mutation.

Create Snapshot Subscription

Example use case: This mutation creates a subscription to monitor parking availability in zones 10 and 11 within project 101. It uses a zone-based grouping (groupBy: zone) and filters for parking spaces labeled as EV. The subscription is limited to a 5,000-meter radius around the given coordinates (latitude: 37.7749, longitude: -122.4194). The labelsMatch: any ensures that any space marked as EV will be included. The mutation response will include a unique subscription id and an expiresOn field, indicating when the subscription will expire.

Code Block
languagegraphql
createSubscriptionOccupancySnapshot(
  filters: [FilterInput!]!,
  checkConsistency: [CheckConsistency!]
): CreateSubscriptionResponse!
Code Block
languagegraphql
mutation {
  createSubscriptionOccupancySnapshot(
    filters: [{
      projectId: [101],
      zoneId: [10, 11],
      area: {
        latitude: 37.7749,
        longitude: -122.4194,
        distanceMeters: 5000
      },
      labels: ["EV"],
      labelsMatch: any,
      groupBy: zone
    }]
  ) {
    id
    expiresOn
  }
}

Create Updates Subscription

Example use case: When monitoring a large parking facility, receiving only changed data can significantly reduce bandwidth usage. This subscription will only return information about spaces that have changed their occupancy status.

Code Block
languagegraphql
createSubscriptionOccupancyUpdates(
  projectId: [Int!],
  zoneId: [Int!],
  levelId: [Int!],
  floorNumber: [Int!],
  groupId: [Int!],
  groupCustomId: [String!],
  networkId: [String!],
  labels: [String!],
  labelsMatch: LabelsMatch,
  area: LocationWithRadiusInput,
  groupBy: GroupBy!,
  checkConsistency: [CheckConsistency!]
): CreateSubscriptionResponse!
Code Block
languagegraphql
mutation {
  createSubscriptionOccupancyUpdates(
    projectId: [101],
    zoneId: [10, 11],
    area: {
      latitude: 37.7749,
      longitude: -122.4194,
      distanceMeters: 5000
    },
    labels: ["EV"],
    labelsMatch: any,
    groupBy: zone
  ) {
    id
    expiresOn
  }
}

Subscription Updates Warning

Note

Important: Sending an empty update will result in clearing all subscription parameters, which may disrupt the functionality of the subscription. Always ensure to include the full set of original parameters when extending or modifying a subscription to avoid unintended data loss or disruptions.

Update Snapshot Subscription

Example use case: In this mobile app scenario, the user initially subscribed to parking availability within a 5,000-meter radius, but as they zoom in on the map, the subscription needs to be adjusted to a smaller area.

Code Block
languagegraphql
mutation {
  updateSubscriptionOccupancySnapshot(
    id: "12345",
    filters: [{
      projectId: [101],
      zoneId: [10, 11],
      area: {
        latitude: 37.7749,
        longitude: -122.4194,
        distanceMeters: 1000  # Updated
      },
      labels: ["EV"],
      labelsMatch: any,
      groupBy: position  # Updated
    }]
  ) {
    id
    expiresOn
  }
}

Update Updates Subscription

Similar to updating snapshot subscriptions, but for the more efficient updates-only subscription

Code Block
languagegraphql
mutation {
  updateSubscriptionOccupancyUpdates(
    id: "12345",
    projectId: [101],
    zoneId: [10, 11],
    area: {
      latitude: 37.7749,
      longitude: -122.4194,
      distanceMeters: 1000
    },
    labels: ["EV"],
    labelsMatch: any,
    groupBy: position
  ) {
    id
    expiresOn
  }
}

Demand Snapshot

Example use case: During testing or debugging, you may need to manually trigger a complete data update.

Code Block
languagegraphql
mutation {
  demandSubscriptionOccupancySnapshot(id: "12345")
}

Keep Alive Subscirption

Extends the expiration time of any subscription without modifying its parameters.

Code Block
languagegraphql
mutation {
  keepAliveSubscription(id: "12345") {
    id
    expiresOn
  }
}
