Orchestra

The Orchestra platform IoT enables the possibility to collect all the data from sensors attached to Meshlium over MQTT and manage them in a user-friendly dashboard.

How to get your own API-key

For getting your own API-key you have to send a mail to services@orchestra.it with the subject "[ Libelium - Activation] New activation request", signaling the number of sensors and the numbers of venues or Meshliums being used, and Orchestra will provide the account to access the platform where you can get the needed information.

To activate the API secret key and get the client Id, you have to go to the "Profile" section of the Orchestra account and then select the checkbox in the "Orchestra API" section and click the "Generate key" button.

Then you have to save the information generated by clicking on the "Save" button in the same section.
