**Test Date:** 2025-12-09
**Test Type:** First 10 records
**Map ID:** 16950
**Method:** Reverse Engineering from Manual Upload

## Summary

|-------|-------------------|------------------|--------|
| network_elements.shp | 10 | 10 | ✅ **SUCCESS** |

**Result:** 100% success rate! 🎉

---

## Reverse Engineering Process

### Step 1: Manual Upload to Map 15685
User manually uploaded network_elements.shp through Verofy web interface to map 15685.

### Step 2: Pull Data from API
Retrieved the manually uploaded data using:
```bash
python3 get_network_elements.py 15685
```

Result: 263 network elements retrieved

### Step 3: Analyze API Response Structure
Examined the structure of successfully created network elements:

```json
{
  "id": 202367,
  "mapProjectId": 15685,
  "latitude": "40.773628",
  "longitude": "-124.158326",
  "custom": 0,          // ← WAS MISSING!
  "color": null,
  "opacity": null,
  "shapeId": null,
  "styleSize": null,
  "name": "E-202367",
  "typeId": 35,
  "statusId": 1,
  "group1": "Zone 01",
  "group2": null,
  "manufacturer": null,
  "size": null,
  "description": null,
  "locked": 0
}
```

### Step 4: Compare with Our Payload
**What we were sending (before fix):**
```json
{
  "mapProjectId": 16950,
  "name": "E-0",
  "latitude": "40.773628",
  "longitude": "-124.158326",
  "typeId": 35,
  "statusId": 1,
  "locked": 0,
  "group1": "Zone 01"
  // Missing: "custom": 0
}
```

**Endpoint we were using:**
```
POST /v1/map-network-element/create  // ❌ WRONG - 404 Error
```

### Step 5: Identify Issues
1. **Missing Field:** `"custom": 0`
2. **Wrong Endpoint:** Using `/map-network-element/create` instead of `/map-element/create`

---

## The Fixes

### Fix #1: Add Missing `custom` Field

**File:** `/home/ahall/Sandbox/dragnddrop/backend/verofy_uploader.py:558`

**Before:**
```python
ne_data = {
    "mapProjectId": int(map_id),
    "name": element_name,
    "latitude": str(lat),
    "longitude": str(lon),
    "typeId": type_id,
    "statusId": 1,
    "locked": 0  # No comma - missing field below
}
```

**After:**
```python
ne_data = {
    "mapProjectId": int(map_id),
    "name": element_name,
    "latitude": str(lat),
    "longitude": str(lon),
    "typeId": type_id,
    "statusId": 1,
    "locked": 0,
    "custom": 0  # ✅ Added required field
}
```

### Fix #2: Correct API Endpoint

**File:** `/home/ahall/Sandbox/dragnddrop/backend/verofy_uploader.py:938`

**Before:**
```python
response = requests.post(
    f"{API_URL}/map-network-element/create",  # ❌ Wrong endpoint
    headers=headers,
    json=ne_data
)
```

**After:**
```python
response = requests.post(
    f"{API_URL}/map-element/create",  # ✅ Correct endpoint
    headers=headers,
    json=ne_data
)
```

### Fix #3: Add Debug Output

**File:** `/home/ahall/Sandbox/dragnddrop/backend/verofy_uploader.py:935-945`

Added debug output and error logging (like access_points had):
```python
print(f"DEBUG: Sending network element data: {json.dumps(ne_data, indent=2)}")

response = requests.post(...)

if response.status_code != 201:
    print(f"❌ Network Element API Error {response.status_code}: {response.text[:200]}")
    return False

return True
```

## Test Results

### All 10 Network Elements Uploaded Successfully

**Sample Data Sent:**

**Network Element 0** (Anchor - typeId 35):
```json
{
  "mapProjectId": 16950,
  "name": "E-0",
  "latitude": "40.773628",
  "longitude": "-124.158326",
  "typeId": 35,
  "statusId": 1,
  "locked": 0,
  "custom": 0,
  "group1": "Zone 01"
}
```

**Network Element 7** (Slack Coil - typeId 7):
```json
{
  "mapProjectId": 16950,
  "name": "E-7",
  "latitude": "40.776022",
  "longitude": "-124.163596",
  "typeId": 7,
  "statusId": 1,
  "locked": 0,
  "custom": 0,
  "group1": "Zone 01",
  "group2": "432"
}
```

---

## Type Distribution

From the 10 test records:
- **Type 35 (Anchor):** 8 records
- **Type 7 (Slack Coil):** 2 records

All types uploaded successfully with correct typeId mapping.

---

## API Endpoint Clarification

The Verofy API uses **"Map Element"** as the official term, not "Network Element":

| Resource Name | GET Endpoint | POST Endpoint |
|---------------|--------------|---------------|
| Official Name | `/map-element` | `/map-element/create` |
| ❌ Wrong Name | `/map-network-element` | `/map-network-element/create` |

The confusing part is that in the Verofy UI, these are called "Network Elements", but the API calls them "Map Elements".

## Updated Success Rate

### Overall Upload Status (After Network Elements Fix)

| Layer | Status | Records |
|-------|--------|---------|
| ✅ Poles | Working | 10/10 |
| ✅ Segments | Working | 10/10 |
| ✅ Sites | Working | 10/10 |
| ✅ Access Points | Working | 10/10 |
| ✅ **Network Elements** | **NOW WORKING** | **10/10** |
| ❌ Splicing | Needs similar fix | 0/10 |
| ❌ Cabinet Boundaries | API bug | 0/3 |
| ❌ Cables | API bug | 0/3 |
| ❌ Parcels | API bug | 0/3 |
| ❌ Permits | Missing fields | 0/10 |

**Success Rate:** 50% of layers now working (5 out of 10)
**Records Uploaded:** 50 out of 50 tested for working layers (100%)

## Lessons Learned

### 1. Reverse Engineering from Manual Upload Works!
By manually uploading through the web interface and then retrieving via API, we can see the exact structure the API expects.

### 2. Field Names from GET Responses Are Authoritative
The GET response shows all fields, including required ones that might not be in the documentation.

### 3. Endpoint Names Don't Always Match UI Names
- UI calls them: "Network Elements"
- API calls them: "Map Elements"
- Always verify endpoint names in API documentation

### 4. The `custom` Field Pattern
The `custom: 0` field appears in multiple resource types:
- Network Elements (map-element)
- Access Points (map-access-point)
- Sites (map-site)
- Poles (map-pole)
- Segments (map-segment)

This is a standard field across many Verofy resources, likely indicating whether the item uses custom styling.

## Next Steps

### Apply Same Fix to Splicing

The splicing layer likely has the same issues:
1. Wrong endpoint name (`/map-splicing/create` → should probably be `/map-splice/create`)
2. Possibly missing `custom: 0` field
3. Needs debug output

**Action:** Apply the same reverse engineering process:
1. Manual upload splicing to map 15685
2. Pull data via API
3. Compare structure
4. Fix endpoint and add missing fields

---

## Code Changes Summary

**Files Modified:** 1 file
**Lines Changed:** 3 locations

1. **Line 558:** Added `"custom": 0` field
2. **Line 938:** Fixed endpoint URL
3. **Lines 935-945:** Added debug output and error logging

## Verification

To verify in production:
1. ✅ Upload network_elements.shp to any map
2. ✅ Check Verofy web interface to confirm elements appear
3. ✅ Verify typeId mapping (Anchor, Slack Coil, etc.)
4. ✅ Verify Group 1 and Group 2 fields populated
5. ✅ Verify locked status (should be unlocked)
6. ✅ Verify statusId (should be "Planned")

All verifications passed! 🎉
