Connectors allow you to forward ground data to an external platform, app or a database, for further processing, analysis or automation.
Each connector is defined by connector type and data selection.
Connector type defines type of server or destination where your data will land, including all connection configuration. Examples: MQTT connector, HTTP connector, import to database, export to CSV file etc.
We support MQTT connector type at the moment. More types coming soon.
Data selection specifies which ground data will be forwarded. You can choose all your device data, or any subset of devices and/or assets.
You can create many connectors and define each one to suit a use case.
How do connectors work
Each connector listens for data feed coming from the devices you’ve selected in data selection. Whenever new device (or asset) state arrives to the platform, the connector will immediately forward the data to the destination.
MQTT connector type
This connector type defines a connection with an external MQTT broker. It supports all standard MQTT configurations, including TLS, QoS and client certificate/key upload.
