When you call API operations that are related to Thing Specification Language (TSL) models, the request parameters or response parameters may contain the ThingModelJson parameter. The value of this parameter indicates the TSL data structure that is stored in IoT Platform. This TSL data structure is different from the original TSL data structure. All fields in the ThingModelJson parameter are sorted by key in alphabetical order.

Data structure

The data structure of a default TSL module is different from that of a custom TSL module.

  • Default TSL module

       "version":"159244410****"
  }
  "events":[],
  "productKey":"al12345****",
  "properties":[],
  "services":[],
  "functionBlocks":[{
      "productKey":"al12345****",
      "functionBlockId":"location0",

    }]
}
    Parameter Type Description
    productKey String The ProductKey of the product to which the TSL model belongs.
    _ppk String The information about the TSL model version. This parameter consists of the following fields:
    • version: the version number of the current TSL model. This field is available only for published TSL models.
    • description: the description of the current TSL model. This field is available only for published TSL models.
    properties List The properties of the product to which the TSL model belongs. For more information about the data structure of the properties parameter, see Data structure of the properties parameter.

    In each property, you can use the extendConfig parameter to define the extended information about the TSL model. For more information, see Data structure of the extendConfig parameter. If no extended information needs to be defined, you do not need to specify the extendConfig parameter.

    services List The services of the product to which the TSL model belongs. For more information about the data structure of the services parameter, see Data structure of the services parameter.

    In each service, you can use the extendConfig parameter to define the extended information about the TSL model. For more information, see Data structure of the extendConfig parameter. If no extended information needs to be defined, you do not need to specify the extendConfig parameter.

    events List The events of the product to which the TSL model belongs. For more information about the data structure of the events parameter, see Data structure of the events parameter.

    In each event, you can use the extendConfig parameter to define the extended information about the TSL model. For more information, see Data structure of the extendConfig parameter. If no extended information needs to be defined, you do not need to specify the extendConfig parameter.

    functionBlocks List The list of custom modules. This parameter is available only when the product contains at least one custom TSL module. This parameter consists of the following fields:
    • productKey: the ProductKey of the product to which the TSL model belongs.
    • functionBlockId: the identifier of the custom TSL module. Each identifier is unique in a product.
