- I'm working on an integration with a proprietary (black box) system.
There is some TCP communication that occurs between two microservices. I've managed to sniff the traffic and come up with the following data format- ```txt
ID[I]=123, USER[S]=8080, PASS[S]=0000,- ```
- My understanding is that each line is an object, with each child separated by a comma and structured like `key[type]=value`
Types (assumed)- - `I` = Integer
- - `S` = String
Assuming this, the JSON equivalent of the above example would be- ```json
- {
- "ID": 123,
"USER": "8080",- "PASS": "0000"
- }
- ```
___- My question is if this is similar to any known standard? I'd like to look into this more (rather than making more assumptions).
**Edit:** it's worth noting that it's very possible that this is completely a proprietary data format unique to the system I'm working with. I figured that if it's following any sort of standard I could read up on it more.

Is there a name for a data format like `key[type]=value`?
