## Examples

### Example 1: Base case

**Argument values:**

* **Series identifier:** `seriesId`
* **Time series sync RID:** ri.time-series-catalog.main.sync.11111111

| seriesId | **Output** |
| ----- | ----- |
| seriesOne | {"seriesId":"seriesOne","syncRid":"ri.time-series-catalog.main.sync.11111111"} |

***

### Example 2: Base case

**Argument values:**

* **Series identifier:** `seriesId`
* **Time series sync RID:** `syncRid`

| seriesId | syncRid | **Output** |
| ----- | ----- | ----- |
| seriesOne | ri.time-series-catalog.main.sync.11111111 | {"seriesId":"seriesOne","syncRid":"ri.time-series-catalog.main.sync.11111111"} |
| seriesTwo | ri.time-series-catalog.main.sync.22222222 | {"seriesId":"seriesTwo","syncRid":"ri.time-series-catalog.main.sync.22222222"} |

***

### Example 3: Null case

**Argument values:**

* **Series identifier:** `seriesId`
* **Time series sync RID:** ri.time-series-catalog.main.sync.11111111

| seriesId | **Output** |
| ----- | ----- |
| *null* | {"seriesId":"null","syncRid":"ri.time-series-catalog.main.sync.11111111"} |

***

### Example 4: Null case

**Argument values:**

* **Series identifier:** `seriesId`
