Sensor Integration

Sensor Integration is the process where a standalone sensor (like a Motion Tag or Bath Sensor) establishes a secure communication link with the WiFi Motion Plug network.

Operations

Obtain detections for a single Sensor

Request

Generic API to query sensor detections by thingName without any filters or selected time ranges.

Path
THING_NAMEstringrequired

Sensor thingName.

Query
frominteger>= 0

Greater than or equal to the oldest time of a sensor detection.

tointeger>= 0

Great than or equal to the newest time of a sensor detection.

latestboolean

The latest sensor detection. If specifying a specific sensor, then the latest sensor detection for that sensor will be provided. If querying all sensors, then the sensor with the most recent detection will be provided.
