This method can be used to generate a Helix Event in Command. Users will be able to specify the attribute values for each attribute key that was previously defined in the Event Type creation process. To successfully create a Helix Event, users will need to input the associated Camera ID, API Token with Helix permissions, Event Type UID, and the exact event epoch timestamp in milliseconds.

Note: Users are not required to provide an attribute value for all of the attribute keys tied to that specific Event Type. If an attribute value is not available or does not exist, users can simply disregard the attribute altogether when making the POST request.
