Step 2: Create Your Space​

  1. In the top-right corner, click SPACES → NEW SPACE.

    SPACES page with the "+ NEW SPACE" button highlighted in the top-right corner

  2. Name your space (for example: my-home, office-sensors, warehouse). Follow the Naming Conventions.

    The "Create new space" dialog — enter a name and click CREATE

  3. This is where your devices will live. See Spaces for details.

Step 3: Add a Device​

  1. Select your Space.

  2. Go to DEVICES → +NEW DEVICE.

  3. Provide the device information — either scan the QR code (⛶ SCAN DEVICE) to fill everything in automatically, or enter the Name, HARDWARIO Serial Number (HSN), and Claim Token manually.

    The "Create new device" dialog — scan the QR code, or fill in Name, Serial Number, and Claim Token

  4. Save it — your device is now registered in the Cloud. See Devices for everything you can do next.

Step 4: See Your Data​

Once the device is powered up and connected, its uplinks appear in the Cloud.

  • Read its incoming payloads under Messages.
  • Group and filter related devices with Tags.
  • Store per-device key–value information with Variables.

Step 5: Act on Your Devices​

The Cloud is bidirectional — send configuration, data, or shell commands back with a Downlink, and push firmware over the air with FOTA.

Step 6: Integrate With Your Systems​

Route your data out of the Cloud with Connectors (webhooks), or query it programmatically with the REST API.

Step 7: Manage Access​

Invite teammates and control who can see and change your Space under Users.
