Endpoints

• Private portal: https://www.brainstem.org/api/private/stem/sessiondatastorage/ (needs a token; one record: append <id>/)
• Public portal: https://www.brainstem.org/api/public/stem/sessiondatastorage/ (read-only, public projects, no token)
• Response keys: session_data_storage (detail, create, update), session_data_storages (list)
• Permissions: see the permissions page
• Uniqueness: session, datastorage unique together

Fields

[required] fields must be sent on create; [read-only] fields are returned but cannot be set. A nestable relation can be traversed in filters (filter{field.other}) and sideloaded with include[]=field.*; other relations can only be compared with ids (filter{field}=<id>). See the query syntax.

Field	Description
id	number [read-only]
storage_name	computed [read-only]
session	session id [required]
datastorage	datastorage id [required]
order	number; nullable

List

• Allowed portals: private, public
• Request method: GET
• URL: https://www.brainstem.org/api/private/stem/sessiondatastorage/
• Responses: 200 OK; 401 Not authenticated; 403 Not allowed

Use example (Python API tool)

resp = client.load('sessiondatastorage', 'load_all', true);
records = resp.session_data_storages;

Response example

    "session_data_storages": [
        {
            "id": 1,
            "storage_name": null,
            "session": "<session-id>",

record = created.session_data_storage;

Detail

• Allowed portals: private, public
• Request method: GET
• URL: https://www.brainstem.org/api/private/stem/sessiondatastorage/<id>/
• Responses: 200 OK; 403 Not allowed; 404 Not found

Use example (Python API tool)

resp = client.load('sessiondatastorage', id='<id>')
record = resp.json()['session_data_storage']

Use example (MATLAB API tool)

out = client.load('sessiondatastorage', 'id', '<id>');
record = out.session_data_storage;

Response example
