Receive JSON from your software

Start with the first-watch tutorial. Send JSON to POST /v1/ingest/{watchId} with the ingest bearer credential. Select the fields the condition needs; selected data becomes retained evidence.

A 202 response acknowledges durable acceptance, not delivery of a notification. Retry an uncertain request with the same idempotency key within its receipt horizon. Keys are scoped to the active watch generation and retained for 24 hours; after expiry the same key can represent a new input.

Response	Producer action
202	Persist the receipt; the input committed.
400 or 413	Correct invalid or oversized input before retrying.
401	Check the ingest token and target daemon.
409	Inspect whether the watch is inactive or replaced.
429	Respect pressure and back off.
503	Retry with bounded backoff and the same idempotency key.

Use source.jq for a bounded projection, then source.fields to select scalars. A batch commits all projected outputs or none. Never send arbitrary remote input to a command source. See provider events and the API.
