How do I execute an event on an API service that is running?

Objective: This article explains how to execute an event with a payload on an API service via Postman.

Prerequisites:

• You must have administrator access to the API service. i.e "Log in as Admin".

Steps:

1. Open Postman.
2. Execute the Authentication > Admin > Log in as Admin request.
3. Navigate to the <Service> > Miscellaneous > Execute Event.
4. Amend the payload to match your desired event:
   • Amend the detail-type property. e.g ListingCreated
   • Amend the detail property if applicable.

Example:

{
  ...
  "detail-type": "ListingCreated", // Name of the event
  "detail": {
    // Payload:
    "raisedAt": "2022-08-12T07:53:54.959Z",
    "correlationId": "46f9c292d5fbab5c696b1925fdaa816a",
    "commodity": {
        ...
    },
    "listing": {
        ...
    }
  }
}
