Data - Download Preview

Reference

Service:: Maps

API Version:: 1.0

The Download request allows the caller to download data previously uploaded using Data Upload.
Applies to: S1 pricing tier.

This API allows the caller to download a previously uploaded data content.
You can use this API in a scenario like downloading an existing collection of geofences uploaded previously using the Data Upload API for use in our Azure Maps Geofencing Service.

Note

Azure Maps Data service retirement

The Azure Maps Data service (both v1 and v2) is now deprecated and will be retired on 9/16/24. To avoid service disruptions, all calls to the Data service will need to be updated to use the Azure Maps Data Registry service by 9/16/24. For more information, see How to create data registry.

Submit Download Request

To download your content you will use a GET request where the path will contain the udid of the data to download. Optionally, you can also pass in an Accept header to specify a preference for the Content-Type of the data response.
For example, to download a collection of geofences previously uploaded using the Upload API, set the udid parameter in the path to the udid of the data received previously in the upload API response and set the Accept header to either one of the following media types:

application/json
application/vnd.geo+json
application/octet-stream

Download Data Response

The Download API will return a HTTP 200 OK response if the data resource with the passed-in udid is found, where the response body will contain the content of the data resource.
A HTTP 400 Bad Request error response will be returned if the data resource with the passed-in udid is not found.

Here's a sample response body for a simple geofence represented in GeoJSON uploaded previously using the Upload API:

{
    "type": "FeatureCollection",
    "features": [{
        "type": "Feature",
        "geometry": {
            "type": "Point",
            "coordinates": [-122.126986, 47.639754]
        },
        "properties": {
            "geometryId": "001",
            "radius": 500
        }
    }]
}

GET https://{geography}.atlas.microsoft.com/mapData/{udid}?api-version=1.0

With optional parameters:

GET https://{geography}.atlas.microsoft.com/mapData/{udid}?subscription-key={subscription-key}&api-version=1.0

URI Parameters

Name	In	Required	Type	Description
geography	path	True	string	This parameter specifies where the Azure Maps Creator resource is located. Valid values are us and eu.
udid	path	True	string	The unique data id for the content. The `udid` must have been obtained from a successful Data Upload API call.
api-version	query	True	string	Version number of Azure Maps API. Current version is 1.0
subscription-key	query		string	One of the Azure Maps keys provided from an Azure Map Account. Please refer to this article for details on how to manage authentication.

Request Header

Name	Required	Type	Description
x-ms-client-id		string	Specifies which account is intended for usage in conjunction with the Microsoft Entra ID security model. It represents a unique ID for the Azure Maps account and can be retrieved from the Azure Maps management plane Account API. To use Microsoft Entra ID security in Azure Maps see the following articles for guidance.

Responses

Name	Type	Description
200 OK	object	Data download request completed successfully. The response body will contain the content for the passed in `udid`. Headers Content-Type: string
400 Bad Request	ODataErrorResponse	Bad request: one or more parameters were incorrectly specified or are mutually exclusive.
401 Unauthorized	ODataErrorResponse	Access denied due to invalid subscription key or invalid Microsoft Entra ID bearer token. Make sure to provide a valid key for an active Azure subscription and Maps resource. Otherwise, verify the WWW-Authenticate header for error code and description of the provided Microsoft Entra ID bearer token. Headers WWW-Authenticate: string
403 Forbidden	ODataErrorResponse	Permission, capacity, or authentication issues.
404 Not Found	ODataErrorResponse	Not Found: the requested resource could not be found, but it may be available again in the future.
500 Internal Server Error	ODataErrorResponse	An error occurred while processing the request. Please try again later.

Security

AADToken

These are the Microsoft Entra OAuth 2.0 Flows. When paired with Azure role-based access control it can be used to control access to Azure Maps REST APIs. Azure role-based access controls are used to designate access to one or more Azure Maps resource account or sub-resources. Any user, group, or service principal can be granted access via a built-in role or a custom role composed of one or more permissions to Azure Maps REST APIs.

To implement scenarios, we recommend viewing authentication concepts. In summary, this security definition provides a solution for modeling application(s) via objects capable of access control on specific APIs and scopes.

Notes

This security definition requires the use of the x-ms-client-id header to indicate which Azure Maps resource the application is requesting access to. This can be acquired from the Maps management API.

The Authorization URL is specific to the Azure public cloud instance. Sovereign clouds have unique Authorization URLs and Microsoft Entra ID configurations. * The Azure role-based access control is configured from the Azure management plane via Azure portal, PowerShell, CLI, Azure SDKs, or REST APIs. * Usage of the Azure Maps Web SDK allows for configuration based setup of an application for multiple use cases.

Type: oauth2
Flow: implicit
Authorization URL: https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/authorize

subscription-key

This is a shared key that is provisioned when you Create an Azure Maps account in the Azure portal or using PowerShell, CLI, Azure SDKs, or REST API.

With this key, any application can access all REST API. In other words, this key can be used as a master key in the account that they are issued in.

For publicly exposed applications, our recommendation is to use the confidential client applications approach to access Azure Maps REST APIs so your key can be securely stored.

Type: apiKey
In: query

SAS Token

This is a shared access signature token is created from the List SAS operation on the Azure Maps resource through the Azure management plane via Azure portal, PowerShell, CLI, Azure SDKs, or REST APIs.

With this token, any application is authorized to access with Azure role-based access controls and fine-grain control to the expiration, rate, and region(s) of use for the particular token. In other words, the SAS Token can be used to allow applications to control access in a more secured way than the shared key.

For publicly exposed applications, our recommendation is to configure a specific list of allowed origins on the Map account resource to limit rendering abuse and regularly renew the SAS Token.
