Data Ingest into m3ter

Designed as a data-first solution from the outset, the m3ter service offers several ways for ingesting your usage data to suit your operational requirements:

  • API Calls. Use the m3ter Ingest API for getting data directly into your Meter collection fields. See the Submit Measurements API Reference documentation. For details on the limits imposed on the Ingest API and guidance on optimizing your data submissions, see Ingest Limits and Optimizing Submissions.

  • File Upload. Obtain an upload URL from the service and use this to ingest measurements data from a file.

More Details? See Submitting Usage Data.
