REST API Time Override

PLCnext Technology & PLCnext Controls
1

Hello,
We are using REST API and are able to override any data type using postman (external tool to test REST API calls). However, Time data type does not work as expected. I can override TIME using PLCNext in debug mode but not using postman.

I tried T#10s, numeric values but the override is not successful. I also tried Writing 70000ms, ‘70000ms’, T#70000ms, ‘T#70000ms’ and got Invalid Request error.
Can someone help me on this?

Hello D Teegala,
sorry for the late response.

I dont think it is currently possible to write to variables of type time using the REST Api.

I recomend a int32 or int64 input and casting that to the respective time variable in the PLCnext Enineer application using functionblocks instead.

I have inquired with the responsible ProductManager when this issue will be resolved.

Best regards and happy holidays,

Oliver
