Overview#
Adafruit IO is an API designed for building Internet of Things (IoT) applications. It offers a means to store, share, and manage data from your IoT devices. With Adafruit IO, you can create dashboards to display real-time data, trigger events based on data, and even control outputs. It's a versatile platform that's especially friendly for those getting started with IoT.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
adafruit_io: {
type: "app",
app: "adafruit_io",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://io.adafruit.com/api/v2/user`,
headers: {
"X-AIO-Key": `${this.adafruit_io.$auth.active_key}`,
},
})
},
})
Example Use Cases#
IoT Alert System: Integrate Adafruit IO with Twilio on Pipedream to create an IoT alert system. When a sensor connected to Adafruit IO reaches a certain threshold—say, a temperature sensor detects a high value—Adafruit IO can trigger a workflow on Pipedream that sends an SMS alert via Twilio, informing the necessary parties to take action.
Home Automation: Connect Adafruit IO with smart home devices via Pipedream. For instance, when a light sensor on Adafruit IO detects darkness, it could trigger a Pipedream workflow that sends a command to Philips Hue or LIFX to turn on the lights in your home, seamlessly integrating ambient light awareness with home lighting systems.
Data Logging and Analysis: Use Adafruit IO with Google Sheets on Pipedream to log sensor data over time. Set up a workflow where data points from various sensors on Adafruit IO are periodically pushed into a Google Sheet. This allows for easy historical data analysis and visualization, enabling trends to be spotted and data-driven decisions to be made about IoT deployments.
Authentication#
Name Slug: adafruit_ioAdafruit IO uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Adafruit IO account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Adafruit IO APIs in both code and no-code steps.
Sign in and copy your API key from the API Keys pop up (key icon).
