How to use AssystRest to insert a batch of events?

We have use API to generate tasks in a couple of processes. I have adapted my code to include a foreach element that cycles through events in an object. You might event be able to populate the object array from a .csv or .xlsx file using Get-Content. It might do what you want it to...

Function Set-JsonBody($eventType,$description,$importProfile,$affectedUser,$itemA,$category){
    $myJsonConstruct = @"
{
    "eventTypeEnum": "$eventType",
        "remarks": "$description",
        "importProfileId": $importProfile,
        "affectedUser": {
            "resolvingParameters": [
                {
                    "parameterName": "shortCode",
                    "parameterValue": "$affectedUser"
                },
                {
                    "parameterName": "CSGId",
                    "parameterValue": "0"
                }
            ]
        },
        "itemA": {
            "resolvingParameters": [
                {
                    "parameterName": "shortCode",
                    "parameterValue": "$itemA"
                }
            ]
        },
        "category": {
            "resolvingParameters": [
                {
                    "parameterName": "shortCode",
                    "parameterValue": "$category"
                }
            ]
        }
    }
"@
    return $myJsonConstruct
}

$username = ""
$pass = ""
$secpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString $pass -AsPlainText -Force
$Credential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential ($username, $secpasswd)
$Uri = "https://{server}:{port}/assystRest/v2/events"

$eventArr = @(
    @{
        eventType = "INCIDENT"
        description = "This is the first event"
        importProfile = 12
        affectedUser = "BOB@COMPANY.COM"
        itemA = "EXAMPLE_ITEM"
        category = "EXAMPLE_CATEGORY"
    }
    @{
        eventType = "INCIDENT"
        description = "This is the NEXT event"
        importProfile = 12
        affectedUser = "ROB@COMPANY.COM"
        itemA = "EXAMPLE_ITEM"
        category = "EXAMPLE_CATEGORY"
    }
)

foreach($event in $eventArr){
    $Body = Set-JsonBody -eventType $event.eventType `
        -description $event.description `
        -importProfile $event.importProfile `
        -affectedUser $event.affectedUser `
        -itemA $event.itemA `
        -category $event.category

    $Params = @{ 
        "URI" = 	$Uri
        "Method" = 	'POST'
        "Credential" = $Credential
        "ContentType" = 'application/json'
        "Body" = $myJsonConstruct
    }

    Invoke-RestMethod @Params -UseBasicParsing ##Required for running from the Action Processor unsupervised. You might not need it the basic parsing parameter.
}

Alternatively, you could use the assystETM to import batches of events from a spreadsheet. We did this when migrating tickets from another system.
