Sending Data to Device
TagoIO supports two-way communication with devices. Below are the main options for sending data from your application to a device.
Methods to send data
- Publish to MQTT
- Send data over HTTP
- Run an Analysis script that calls an external API
- Integrate through Network Services
- Work with Support to build middleware that speaks your device's native protocol (support@tago.io).
Reading data from TagoIO
Devices can also retrieve data from TagoIO using different endpoints depending on the type of data needed:
- Configuration parameters to read device settings (e.g., thresholds, behavior)
- Data endpoint to read device data (e.g., sensor values, locations, history)
Best Practice: Use configuration parameters for device settings; use the data endpoint for measurements.
