## API Reference
To access the EnOS API documentation, go to **EnOS API > API Documents** in the EnOS Console. For each service category, you can check the summary of the APIs from the API list table and click the **More** icon for view details of each specific API, including API description, calling method, requesting URL, parameter description, calling sample, and response sample.

## Sample Code
This sample demonstrates how to post a struct type of measure point to the EnOS Cloud.
```python
from enosapi.request.PostMeasurepointsEnOSRequest import PostMeasurepointsEnOSRequest
from enosapi.client.EnOSDefaultClient import EnOSDefaultClient
import time
import json
enos_api_url = "https://{HOST}/enosapi/"
# the application configuration created in console
access_key = "ACCESS_KEY"
secret_key = "SECRET_KEY"
# sub-device parameters
device_asset_id = 'DEVICE_ASSET_ID'
product_key = 'PRODUCT_KEY'
# OU ID
org_id = "OU_ID"
if __name__ == "__main__":
timestamp = int(time.time() * 1000) # timestamp in milliseconds
struct_measure_point = {'Image1': 'local://file1',
'Sensor': 'PM2_5',
'UpperLimit': 100,
'Value': 120,
'AlertFlag': 1,
'AlertMessage': 'PM10 over limit'}
measure_points = {
'Image0': struct_measure_point
}
data = [{
'measurepoints': measure_points,
'assetId': device_asset_id,
'time': timestamp
}]
param = {
"data": json.dumps(data)
}
# two files named apple.png and orange.png should be put into the same directory as this code file
file_to_upload = {"file1": open("image1.jpg", 'rb')}
request = PostMeasurepointsEnOSRequest(org_id=org_id, product_key=product_key, params=param,
upload_file=file_to_upload)
enos_api_client = EnOSDefaultClient(enos_api_url, access_key, secret_key)
response = enos_api_client.execute(request)
print(response.status, response.msg)
```
