Response

The response returns the data you specified, along with:

  • A unique mpts_id for the MPTS. In this example, the MPTS has been given the ID 12.

  • A created_at element and updated_at element that shows the date and time in ISO 8601 format, with the timezone designator indicated as an offset from UTC. For example, 2015-08-17T11:59:35-07:00 is the time in the time zone that is 7 hours behind UTC.

  • An alerts element. Typically, this element is empty after initial creation (because the MPTS has not been started).
