Manage Data in SmartWorks
The SmartWorks platform allows bidirectional communication between your physical assets and their digital representation (the Things defined in AnythingDB).
Data can come from many sources, but it must be sent via HTTP or MQTT. If sending
data from a device, you will need to add the right HTTP or MQTT endpoints in the
device code (and the appropriate credentials). To see how to get the credentials
required, read Manage Thing Security.
Note: If your device uses a different communication protocol,
check the Device Drivers section to check if
they are compatible with SmartWorks.
Data will be sent from the devices (physical assets) to their digital representation (Things) and stored in the Properties. The most recent value will be shown in the Properties section but you can also access the Properties History to check the historical data.
