Device

Device is the link between your external things and the data in your application. You need to create a device in order to allow anything to send or receive data from your buckets.

The default communication between external devices and TagoCore is done through HTTP using JSON.

Adding a Device

To add a new device, press the   button on the Devices page. Once you press the button, a new Device will automatically be created with the name New Device.

info

When a Device is created, TagoCore automatically creates a Bucket for it with the same name.

Token & Serial Number

The secret key used between TagoCore and your Device is called Device token. You can only retrieve data from a Device or send data to a Device if you specify a valid token.

Be careful

Device tokens should be kept secret and only be shared with those you trust.

Payload Parser

Payload Parsers allows you to manipulate the raw payload sent by devices. For example, it can be used to transform a HEX payload sent by a device into temperature and battery variables. Learn more about Payload parsers.
