MT sensor data is officially available via API or MQTT telemetry stream, making it easier than ever for Meraki customers and partners to manage sensor data at scale or build custom business solutions.
With the API and MQTT telemetry stream, you can create custom visualizations for analysis, integrate sensor data with building management systems to increase efficiency, or store in a long-term cloud database for historical record keeping.
MT Sensor API Information:
Sensor API documentation can be found on the Meraki developer hub.
On the Meraki dashboard, navigate to Help >> API docs >> Sensor Readings
The API enables you to return sensor readings sorted by timestamp, interval, or latest reading. See below for example HTTP requests.
MQTT Information
A complete MQTT setup guide can be found at documentation.meraki.com.
Note: minimum firmware requirements for users to enable and receive MT data via MQTT include:
-
MR - 28.6+
-
MV - 4.16+
MT sensor data can be made available via MQTT by leveraging the MR or MV gateway to publish the data. The desired MQTT broker can be designated directly on the Environmental section of the Meraki dashboard.
