Hi,

The path in newTable API is a string used to structure the data to be sent to the server (with sub levels etc).
This path comes from the underlying IoT/M2M protocol used by Mihini: M3DA, you can have a look at http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mihini/M3DA_Specification to have more details on the protocol.

For example, if your asset is called "house"
    local asset = airvantage.newasset("house"), 
your table could be called "bedroom" and contains several variables:
    local tab1 = asset:newTable("bedroom", {"temperature", "humidity", "timestamp"}, "file", "now")
(With this example, the full path of the variable "temperature" is "house.bedroom.temperature": the separator for those paths is "." (dot))
 

Regarding your question about TCP socket, one of the main goal of using Mihini agent API (pushdata / table) is that the agent is responsible to send the data through a socket to a server.
Once you've called pushdata/table.pushRow APIs, the agent stores the data and is responsible for sending your data according to the data policy specified ("now" in my previous example, meaning  "a couple of seconds after the data has been pushed").

Let me know if this clearer for you.

Regards,

Laurent.

 "path" variable refers is it path to create a table or just a name.

And is it possible to send the created table or pushdata using TCP socket if
