What the data for this category looks like
Data for power industry intelligent due diligence reports is sourced from publicly disclosed operational data from provincial power grid dispatch centers, monthly energy bulletins from local energy administrations, and settlement data from national power trading centers. Core operational indicators are updated monthly. Long-term planning data is updated quarterly. Some grid load data is synchronized hourly.
Each individual due diligence report includes four structured modules: subject qualifications, regional grid coverage, annual operational details, and transaction contract ledger. Fields cover installed capacity, power generation, power supply, electricity sales price, grid-connected capacity, and more. Their respective units are ten thousand kilowatts, hundred million kilowatt-hours, hundred million kilowatt-hours, yuan per kilowatt-hour, and ten thousand kilowatts. All fields use standardized numerical types, with no large volumes of unstructured free text.
What constraints these characteristics impose on HTTP interfaces and external systems
The multi-source, decentralized nature of power due diligence data requires integration with multiple external API interfaces. Multiple sets of authentication parameters and permission verification rules must be configured.
Unit differences in structured fields require configuration of unit conversion mapping rules in interface requests. This prevents data parsing errors.
High-frequency real-time data synchronization needs require configuring short-cycle polling or webhook triggering mechanisms. These adapt to update rhythms ranging from minute-level to hourly-level.
The large volume of batch monthly data requires configuration of pagination request parameters and timeout thresholds. This prevents single requests from exceeding interface limits.
Additionally, power data compliance requirements mandate carrying a dedicated authorization identifier in the interface request header. This ensures data acquisition meets regulatory requirements.
How to configure the settings
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
external_api_auth_type | custom_header + api_key | External interfaces in the power industry generally require carrying authorization tokens via custom request headers, supporting multi-source data integration |
external_api_timeout | 300 seconds | Transmission and parsing of batch monthly power data takes extended time; this setting avoids single requests exceeding interface limits |
api_pagination_size | 50–100 items/page | Balances single request data volume and interface call frequency, adapting to the volume characteristics of power batch data |
data_unit_conversion_enabled | Enabled | Units returned by different external data sources vary; unified conversion to the standard units of due diligence reports is required |
webhook_refresh_interval | 3600 seconds | Matches the hourly update rhythm of real-time power data to ensure the timeliness of due diligence data |
external_api_retry_count | 3 times | Addresses occasional network fluctuations in power interfaces, reducing the probability of single request failure |
The parameter values provided on this page are common recommended starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material form, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require case-by-case analysis, and it is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing settings.
Three common configuration mistakes
- Symptom: A call to an external power data interface returns
400 Bad Request. Cause: Parameters are not passed in the field order or unit format required by the interface, such as submitting ten thousand kilowatts incorrectly written as megawatts. - Symptom: A
504 Gateway Timeouterror is triggered when pulling batch monthly power data. Cause: A reasonable timeout threshold is not configured, and the single request data volume exceeds the interface's carrying limit. - Symptom: When calling a power data interface with the
function_callparameter configured, the response does not return structured analysis results. Cause: Required fields are not mapped according to the requirements of the power due diligence interface, and call configuration for core data items is omitted.
How to confirm the configuration is complete
- Initiate an interface request for a small batch of data. Check whether the units of the response fields match the configured conversion rules, and adjust configuration items until the target units are matched.
- View interface call logs to confirm that the required authorization identifier for the corresponding external interface is carried in the request header, and verify the validity of the authentication parameters.
- Trigger a scheduled synchronization task. Confirm that the data pull interval matches the configured
webhook_refresh_interval, and verify the completeness of the synchronization process. - Initiate a batch data request. Check whether the pagination logic is triggered, and confirm that the pagination parameter configuration adapts to the interface's pagination rules.
