Question

Hello everyone,

I'm kinda new to this topic, so I started to read the documentation to recieve the data from xbee gateway.

I have a XBee Gateway ZB, Wifi.
I already tried the herokuapp. Nice thing.
But what I'm interested is, is the API.
In the documentation is written that I can display the received data online. As example is written <hostname>, but unfortunally I can't imagine what is meaning by this. I'm really sorry, if it a stupid question, but I would for example try to receive the data and display it in goolgle spreadsheet or for example in my homepage. What I need to do to acces the data stream?

Thank you for your help

In this case, the hostname is the name of the Digi Device Cloud instance. For example on the US cloud instance:

https://devicecloud.digi.com/ws/monitor?condition=cstId=(your_cstId_number)

Additional data can be obtained by looking in your Device Cloud account under the Data Services > Data Streams menu for full paths. For example:

http://devicecloud.idigi.com/ws/DataStream/00000000-00000000-######FF-FF######/DIO/10

Where the # symbols represent the Device ID and the data stream is the DIO 10 pin.

Hi if I try to acces the site and reading Datastream I get following code. Do I need to uncode it? I mean "TWVzc3VuZzogMjIgQ2Vsc2l1cw0K" is this ASCII or something others?
