The URI of the resource drives the routing to a table or stored procedure in Nucleus. For example, this message:

{ "version": 1, "uri": "nucleus://edge/orgs/api-connectors/apis/test" "body": { (Object from REST endpoint) "hello": "world"

"object": {"hello": ”multiverse"

}, "metadata": { "timestamp": 1403110147.22,

"anything": "you want"

}}

is routed to this stored procedure: edge.nucleus_orgs_apis_v1
