What is the Trumeter Cloud API?
The API is intended for developers, OEMs, and system integrators who need to access cloud data outside of the Trumeter Cloud user interface.
The Trumeter Cloud API is a secure, read only REST API that provides programmatic access to device and telemetry data stored within Trumeter Cloud. It enables third-party applications to retrieve operational data for reporting, visualization, analytics, and system integration.
API Overview
The Trumeter Cloud API uses standard HTTP requests to retrieve data from Trumeter Cloud. Responses are returned in a structured format that can be consumed by applications, dashboards, reporting platforms, and enterprise systems.
The API is read only, meaning it allows applications to retrieve cloud data without modifying device configurations or cloud settings.
Typical workflow:
- Authenticate with the API.
- Submit a request to an available endpoint.
- Receive the requested data.
- Process or display the response within your application.
Available Data
Depending on the connected device and system configuration, the API provides access to:
- Device information
- Current telemetry
- Historical telemetry
Authentication
Applications are required to authenticate before requesting data. Authentication credentials should be included with subsequent requests according to the API specification.
