Data service

Data service is a REST+GraphQL based microservice following the REST and GraphQL API specifications. A 3rd party application can implement these services to return any kind of real-time and historical data to be displayed on Dashboards and Wallboards. We do not expect the data service to implement any sort of authentication on REST and/or GraphQL APIs for now. 

REST APIs

Each data service must support the following endpoints with the following data:

1. Get available attributes

GET /service-name/attribute

Responses

Example HTTP request

Request path

/agent-service/attribute

Example HTTP response

Response 200

{
  "attributes" : [{"name": "aht", description: "Average handling time", "group": "voice", "dataType": "FLOAT", historical: true}], 
"filterAttributes" : ["team", "skillGroup"], 
"multipleFilters" : true 
}

2. Get filter values

GET /service-name/<name-of-filter>

Responses

Example HTTP request

Request path

/agent-service/team

Example HTTP response

Response 200

[{
  "id" : 1
  "name" : "team1"
},
{
  "id" : 2
  "name" : "team2"
}]

3. Get Service Status

GET /service-name/status

Responses

Example HTTP request

Request path

/agent-service/status

Example HTTP response

Response 200

{"status": "ok"}

Schema

GraphQL schema

Every data service will have to expose the following GraphQL queries. Description of the schema is as follows:

Queries

Real-time data

This query will return a list of given attributes and optionally filter the list based on the provided arguments. Following input arguments must be supported:

...

[{
    agentName: “SomeAgent”
    AHT: “20”,
    answeredEmails: “50”,
    ...
},
{
    agentName: “SomeOtherAgent”
    AHT: “30”,
    answeredEmails: “60”,
    ...
}]

Aggregated real-time data

Each data service should support SUM and AVERAGE data aggregation of any numerical attribute and Row Count of any numerical/non-numerical attributes.

...

[{
    name: “Ready”,
    value: “20”
},
{
    name: “Not ready”,
    value: “5”
}]

Historical data

This query will give historical stats of the given attribute/s. It should support the following input arguments:

1. resolution: Will take one of the values from “hourly” and “daily”. Hourly stats will give hour-wise cumulative stats of the selected attribute/s for last 24 hours; daily stats will accumulate all the stats day-wise for last 7 days.
2. aggregateType: Must be one of the “SUM”, “AVERAGE” or “COUNT”. This aggregation type will be used to aggregate all the selected attribute/s
3. attributes: List of selected attributes
4. comparison: This boolean flag would be true for comparison of the same attribute over this and the last week and would be false for comparison of different attributes over the same time period. The time period will depend on the value of resolution. 
5. filterAttributes: A list of attributes on which the data will be filtered. This list would contain the names of the attributes 
6. filterValues: An array of arrays corresponding to the filter values. The array at first index will have values of the first filter and so on.
7. chartType:  Its value is either "Line Chart" or "Bar Chart". if no value is provided (i.e: empty string) then it sends Line Chart by default.

Line Chart Query (Historical)

Sample Query:

getHistoricalData (resolution: "hourly",
                   aggregateType: "count", 
                   attributes: {val: ["currentStatecallsAbandoned"]},
                   comparison: "true",
                   filterAttributes: {val:["team", "skillGroup"]}, 
                   filterValues: {val: [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]],chartType:"Line Chart"})
{
    name
    series
}

Result:

...

      {
        "value": 5,
        "name": "2016-09-17T12:47:17.425Z"
      },
      {
        "value": 10,
        "name": "2016-09-19T17:07:51.824Z"
      },
      {
        "value": 15,
        "name": "2016-09-20T10:30:15.408Z"
      },
      {
        "value": 10,
        "name": "2016-09-13T10:41:32.861Z"
      },
      {
        "value": 8,
        "name": "2016-09-21T18:23:16.441Z"
      }]
  }
]

Bar Chart Query (Historical)

Bar Chart also support the same input arguments as of line chart, only its output response is different. The sample query and expected result of bar chart query is as follow:

Sample Query:

getHistoricalData (resolution: "hourly",
                   aggregateType: "count", 
                   attributes: {val: ["callsAbandoned","callsReceived","callsAnswered"]},
                   comparison: "true",
                   filterAttributes: {val:["queue","skillGroup"]}, 
                   filterValues: {val: [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]],chartType:"Bar Chart"})
{
    name
    series
}

Result when comparison is false (i.e comparison of multiple attributes in single week)
Result:
  

[
  {
    name: "Mon"
    series: [

      {
        "name": "Received",
        "value": 490
      },
      {
        "name": "Answered",
        "value": 490
      },
      {
        "name": "Abandoned",
        "value": 490
      }
    ]
  },
  { 

    name: "Tue"
    series: [

      {
        "name": "Received",
        "value": 490
      },
      {
        "name": "Answered",
        "value": 321
      },
      {
        "name": "Abandoned",
        "value": 700
      }
    ]

 },
 { 

    name: "Wed"
    series: [

      {
        "name": "Received",
        "value": 490
      },
      {
        "name": "Answered",
        "value": 570
      },
      {
        "name": "Abandoned",
        "value": 220
      }
    ]

}
]

Result when comparison is true (i.e comparison of same attribute for this and previous week)
Result:

[
  {
    name: "Mon"
    series: [

      {
        "name": "This week",
        "value": 490
      },
      {
        "name": "Previous Week",
        "value": 490
      }
    ]
  },
  { 

    name: "Tue"
    series: [

      {
        "name": "This Week",
        "value": 490
      },
      {
        "name": "Previous Week",
        "value": 321
      }
    ]

 }
]
