Add a sensor

One guided setup for Thermocloud sensors, third-party sensors, MQTT sensors, and multi-sensor gateways.

Step 1 of 4

Select your device origin

Choose the source hardware type so setup can tailor endpoint, mapping, and validation behavior.

Onboarding session not started

Where is this device coming from?

Choose the origin that matches your hardware to tailor the onboarding process.

Thermocloud Sensor

Devices manufactured by Thermocloud. Requires the hardware MAC address.

Generic Sensor

A single device sending key/value payloads via HTTP.

MQTT Sensor

A single device publishing JSON telemetry to an MQTT topic.

Multi-Sensor Gateway

A gateway forwarding multiple sensor readings through one connection.

Confirm the device identifier

We use this identifier to start a secure onboarding session and listen for live readings.

Hardware MAC Address

Only hexadecimal characters are allowed. We will normalize the address before continuing.

Setup mode

Onboard a new device

Use a generated identifier and endpoint so this flow provisions a brand-new device path.

Extend an existing device

Choose whether this endpoint should create a new device path or extend one that already exists in your fleet.

Point your device at this address to start sending readings:

We generate a unique identifier for each device to isolate data.

Name what your sensor sends

Power on the device — its readings appear here live as they arrive. Give each one a friendly name and a place, and you're nearly done.

Listening for data sent by:

Waiting for your sensor's first message — power it on and keep this page open.

Profile template (optional)

Apply reusable defaults before mapping matching streams.

Live connection diagnostics

Use this to confirm the listener is connected, whether payloads are reaching the wizard, and how much secure session time remains.

Serial seen

The wizard will keep listening while this page stays open. If the socket drops, reconnect here before you restart the onboarding session.

Review & finish

Double-check the readings below. Finishing saves this setup and your sensor starts reporting for real.

Profile template (optional)

Choose a template to quickly apply naming and unit defaults to mapped streams.
