Defines the schema for the v2 configuration of OIM settings.
Open Integration Manager v2 Configuration
The Open Integration Manager v2 API Configuration should only be used by customers who onboarded the BigPanda platform in 2023 and after.
In the future, we plan to make this available to other customers that were onboarded prior to 2023. An upgrade will not be required and both configuration versions will continue to be supported.

Sample Payload Object
For field validation, BigPanda checks against an existing sample JSON payload from the integration. For all create and update calls to the API, a sample must be included in the body of all calls.
All payload fields referenced in configuration settings must be included in the sample.
To generate a sample payload:
- Send a test or sample event to BigPanda after integration installation, but before configuration
- Generate an event preview in your tool
- Manually enter payload field values into the interactive code generator on the BigPanda docs site
When included in the API body, the sample payload should be JSON formatted with double quotes. The payload can include nested objects.
