Tektelic

Send sensor data from Tektelic LNS to Datacake.

Introduction
In this guide, we will show you how you set up the Tektelic LNS correctly so that it forwards data to the Datacake IoT platform.

Create Data Converter
In order to be able to forward your sensor data to Datacake you need to create a new data converter on the Tektelic LNS configuration page.
Tektelic Data Converter
Name
Enter a simple name like "Datacake Converter"
Type
In here please select "Custom" as the converter type.
Decoder
By selecting "Custom" as the type for that converter this prepopulates the Decoder section with a short JavaScript Snippet.
Please leave this short snippet unchanged.
Backup
In case you don't see a default snippet, you can pase in the following:
var arr = []; 
for (var i = 0; i < bytes.length; ++i) { 
    arr.push(bytes[i]); 
} 
return {
    "bytes": JSON.stringify(arr), 
    "port": port, 
    "paylod length": bytes.length
};
Create Integration
Now we need to set up an integration on the application from which you want to forward the data.
​
Tektelic Integration
Name
Please give your integration a name, like "Datacake Integration".
Type
In here you select the "HTTP" type.
Data Converter
Here you select the Datacake data converter that you have created in the step before, which is also documented in the previous chapter.
Application Address
Please set the application address to the following (see screenshots above and below if you are not 100% sure):
api.datacake.co
Port
As we are wanting to use SSL encrypted communication only you have to set the port to the following number:
443
Base Path
Please set the base path setting to the following path:
/integrations/lorawan/tektelic/
Please make sure you enter it exactly as shown above (with ending /). Also have a look at the screenshots if you are not 100% sure.
Enable HTTPS
Please enable the HTTPS checkmark as Datacake onyl accepts SSL secured connections.
Authentication
You don't need to activate the authentication checkmark.
Request Headers
Not needed. Don't apply any changes.
Send empty payload
Leave unchecked
Allow all ports
Leave checked
