There are ways,

You may used like this,

host /api/33/dataElements?dataElementIdScheme=name&filter=name:eq:your data element name

Also this is not only way of doing this there are other ways you may explore.

Thanks,

Hi @linxd I did not get your question? This is for fetching for posting you need to use other API.

compose post data like this ,it cost much time and unreadable.

Using idScheme and put name in it you can place human readable value in it. However this will not work for every items.

Still can’t get the event query result with DE code/name, the query para can be code or name, but how the return result include DE name or code?

The dataElement name or code is available in the dataElement API endpoint, so you need to use both endpoints. By getting the dataElementID from the the events endpoint and then requesting the code/name for that ID from the dataElements endpoint.

After that concatenate the results; however, depending on your purpose, if you don’t really need to use the API but want the information then to achieve this, you might be interested in using the SQL queries?

Thanks!
