events/ketosis Endpoint

The events/ketosis Ketosis is a common ailment that usually occurs in early lactation, when the energy demands of milk production are very high and the cow metabolizes fat stores for energy. Symptoms of ketosis may include reduced milk yield, weight loss, reduced appetite, acetone smell of breath and/or milk, and fever. endpoint provides information on a dairy cow's PULSE/DairyComp 305 KETO (ketosis) diagnosis events. All animals (live, sold, and dead) are included in the response for this endpoint.

NOTE: This endpoint is only available in a deprecated version of the VAS Developer API. Please reach out to us at API Support to transition to the latest version of the VAS Developer API.

PATH PARAMETERS
{dairyId}* integer	VAS-specific A data value that originates from the VAS product line. dairy identifier
{dairyCowId}* integer	VAS-specific dairy cow identifier. This number is used in all VAS products, including PULSE and DairyComp 305. This identifier is unique to each animal in the VAS suite of products, and is the most stable and reliable source of animal identification data. dairyCowId differs from the animal's cowNumber, displayCowNumber, EID 15-digit electronic ID number associated with the animal eartag, and isoId.
* Required
QUERY PARAMETERS
lactation integer	Period of time initiated at calving/freshening when milk production begins until the animal is dried off and stops producing milk. If no parameter is defined, the response reflects the current lactation.
sinceDate string	Start date for which to include results (YYYY-MM-DD). If no parameter is defined, all results are returned.
