Making your first query

Now that you have obtained an access_token from the Authentication step, we are ready to make our first request. Here is an example of a request with authorization to our GraphQL API to obtain sensors data.

Authorization in Header

{"Authorization": "Bearer [access_token]"}

GraphQL Query

query MyFirstQuery {
  sensors {
      data {
          client_id
          floor_id
          room_id
          hive_id
          hive_serial
          sensor_id
          name
          mac_address
          mode
          model
          sensitivity
          center
          height
          orientation
          field_of_view
      }
  }
}
