Getting Started

  1. Registration

    Request an invitation code by emailing us. You will receive an invitation code tied to the email address you used for the request. Register at http://sensor.network.com/ using the invitation code, the email address, and a password of your choosing. If successful, you will see the message "Registration successful. Please login". On failure, you will see the message "Registration failed". Please make sure that you used the correct invitation code and email address. If you still need help, contact us
  2. Using Sensor.Network from a browser

    Once you register and log in at sensor.network.com, click on the "Home" link and follow the instructions to create new sensor datastreams, insert sample data, retrieve data and create visualizations. You can also list available datastreams, search for those tagged with particular keywords and delete any you no longer need.

  3. Using the REST-based API

    You can also access the functionality described above programmatically through our web-based API. Most operations in this API require authentication via an API Key (this is not the same as the invitation code). You can retrive your API Key by signing in at sensor.network.com, and clicking on the "My Account" link.

    The documentation includes examples of exercising the API using Curl. A small snippet of Java SE code for exercising the API is available on the authentication page.
