string

Required

The type of policy to add

"throttle"
"route"
"deleteIncremental (5.0.2)"

description

string

Required

An optional description of the policy

Other parameters passed in the request body will depend on the type of policy being created:

Throttle type:

Name	Type	Required	Description
period	string	Required	Time unit of the throttling policy - second, minute, hour, day
value	int	Required	Number of documents per time unit for the throttling policy

Route type:

Name	Type	Required	Description
routeTo	string	Required	A route to tag

deleteIncremental type:

You need to decide which delete policy to use, as Aspider only allows one at the time.

Delete Incremental policy can be created and assigned to Seed or Connection. When is assigned to both, then Delete Incremental Policy in Seed is only used.

Days before delete (sends the deletes after an specific number of days has passed since the last time the URLs were accessed).
Iterations before delete (sends the deletes after an specific number of incremental crawls since the last time the URLs were accessed).
If the policy is not created, then is used a default policy Immediate (which means sending deletes as soon as a URL is not accessed during an incremental crawl).
