Spaces

A Space is the top-level organizational unit in HARDWARIO Cloud. Everything — devices, tags, connectors, variables, and users — lives inside a space.

Typical use cases:

  • One space per customer deployment
  • One space per project or environment (e.g. myproject-dev, myproject-prod)
  • A personal space for development and testing

A user can be a member of multiple spaces with different roles in each.

API Keys

Each space has its own API keys for programmatic access. API keys are scoped to the space and can be used to list devices, retrieve messages, and send downlinks via the REST API.

To create an API key, go to Settings → API Keys in your space.
