In this exercise we will use a streaming connection to ingest XDM-formatted JSON records in real-time to the Adobe Experience Platform. 

We will use [Insomnia ](https://insomnia.rest/)to send these events to an HTTP Streaming endpoint. 

- Go to the menu Connections > Sources > Catalog
- Select My sources
- Go to Streaming source and expand the menu

- Click on the menu *View dataflow*

- Click on the dataflow name
- On the right panel, get a cURL example by clicking on the command *Copy schema payload *

- Then, open [Insomnia ](https://insomnia.rest/) and add a new request by pasting the cURL request

- This is an example of an XDM payload ; replace the body by the  following JSON

```javascript
{
            "eventType":"event_name_test",
            "_id":"EC0dYLr4bGnO",
            "timestamp":"2024-11-25T10:44:59.971Z",
            "identityMap":{
               "email":[
                  {
                     "id":"bouessay+20241014@adobetest.com",
                     "primary":true
                  }
               ],
               "phone":[
                  {
                     "id":"0102031014"
                  }
               ]
            },
            "_demopotemea":{
               "identification":{
                  "core":{
                     "email":"bouessay+20241014@adobetest.com",
                     "phoneNumber":"0102031014"
                  }
               },
               "interactionDetails":{
                  "core":{
                     "channel":"cx"
                  }
               }
            }
         }
      }
}
```

- To get a synchronous validation, go to the Query tab and add the parameter syncValidation = true

This is one way to ingest Experience Events to Adobe Experience Platform via a **Streaming API**!
