Create a new cube instance
POST {{baseUrl}}/api/cubes/:cubeId/instances
Create a new instance of a specific cube. This in-memory instance can be used by other requests. You obtain the authorization token needed to execute the request using POST /auth/login; you obtain the project ID using GET /projects. You pass the authorization token and the project ID in the request header. You specify the cube ID in the path of the request. You use the offset and limit query parameters in the request to determine the data displayed on the page; the offset parameter specifies where to start returning results, and the limit parameter specifies how many results to return. In the body parameter of the request, you specify the data to be included in the instance, such as attributes, metrics, view filter, metric limits, and sorting criteria.

|
number | Maximum number of items returned for a single request. Used to control paging behavior. Use -1 for no limit. | |
fields

string | Comma-separated, top-level field whitelist that allows the client to selectively retrieve part of the response model. If specified, extra filtering is applied, and for top-level object (if root model is an array, each array element), only the listed fields are kept in the response. For example, "id,elements" keeps only the "id" field and whole "elements" array field, omitting all other fields in the top-level response model. |
