Hi @albert.avetisyan

that is very hard to answer because we don’t know which information you found (and found to be not useful) and what kind of data you want to ingest.  
Any details would help.

In general you can find a lot of information here: [Overview - Cumulocity IoT Guides](https://cumulocity.com/guides/device-integration/introduction/)  
Here: [Cumulocity - OpenAPI](https://cumulocity.com/api/core/)  
And here in the community: [Data integration options with Cumulocity IoT](https://community.cumulocity.com/t/data-integration-options-with-cumulocity-iot/3347)

Hello @Stefan_Witschel

Besides the API problems, I’ve been struggling to use the DataHub application on my environement, i couldn’t even find it.

Hi @albert.avetisyan,

DataHub is a tool for data offloading not for data ingestion. Also it is a paid feature that needs to be purchased and enabled for each tenant.  
So the reason you don’t see it might be that your tenant has not subscribed that feature. You have to contact your SAG contact person to get it enabled.

Regards  
Stefan

You cannot just ingest any JSON data to Cumulocity IoT. First you have to map them to the Cumulocity Domain Model.  
You should start reading the links I’ve posted 😉
