Monitoring / Telemetry

The monitoring and control flow happens entirely in the background, from your cloud to Flip's cloud.

Telemetry

Programs have various telemetry requirements, but for simplicity's sake we merged them into a single interface, and expect all of this data to be uploaded to our servers at no less than 5 minute intervals, for each device. You may send data at faster intervals if desired.

Some programs require 30 days of data prior to enrollment. For this reason, and in order to speed up enrollment, we recommend sharing telemetry even for devices that are not actively enrolled.

To send telemetry data, use the POST /v1/telemetry endpoint. This endpoint allows you to send telemetry in batches if you so desire. More information available on the endpoint page.

Depending on your system's capabilities, we may also be able to fetch this information from your servers every 5 minutes, or we may open up a Kafka or MQTT messaging queue.
