Loriot.io
The Loriot.io app provides integration and synchronization between Eliona and Loriot.io services and LoRaWAN devices.
Overview
This guide provides instructions on configuring, installing, and using the Loriot.io app to manage resources and synchronize LoRaWAN devices between Eliona and Loriot.io services.
Installation
Install the Loriot.io app via the Eliona App Store.
Configuration
The Loriot.io app requires configuration through Eliona’s settings interface. Below are the general steps and details needed to configure the app effectively.
Registering the app in Loriot.io Service
Create credentials in Loriot.io Service to connect the Loriot.io services from Eliona. All required credentials are listed below in the configuration section.
To connect the Loriot.io API you have to ask your provider to get an API-Key.
Configure the Loriot.io app
Configurations can be created in Eliona under Apps > Loriot.io > Settings
which opens the app's Generic Frontend. Here you can use the /configs
endpoint with the POST method. Each configuration requires the following data:
apiBaseUrl
URL of the Loriot.io services.
apiToken
API Token to access the API.

Flag to enable or disable this configuration.
refreshInterval
Interval in seconds for data synchronization.
requestTimeout

Example configuration JSON:
To define devices handled by the Loriot.io app it is necessary to configure these devices. Here you can use the /devices
endpoint with the POST method. If the device still don't exist it will be registered in Loriot.io as well.
