Quick Start

Set up your device and authorization before sending data over any transport.

Step 1: Create a Device

  1. Go to Devices in your TagoIO account and create a new device.
  2. Select the network TagoTiP and the connector for your transport (UDP, TCP, HTTP, or MQTT).
  3. Assign a Serial Number (e.g., SN0042) - this is how TagoTiP identifies your device.

Step 2: Create an Authorization

  1. Go to Devices > Authorization at the top of the page.
  2. Click Generate.
  3. Set a name and select the token format TagoTiP(s).
  4. Click Generate.

You receive two credentials:

CredentialExampleUsed for
Token Hash4deedd7bab8817ec (16 hex chars)TagoTiP frames (plaintext)
Authorizationate2bd...c0d0 (34 chars)TagoTiP(s) encryption key derivation
tip

The token hash is safe on the wire - it cannot be reversed to reveal the authorization. Keep the authorization (at...) secret; it is only needed for TagoTiP(s) key derivation.

See the Authorization guide for more details.

Next steps

Now choose a transport and send your first data point.
