Rhombus IoT sensors provide real-time environmental monitoring across your facilities. Use the API to retrieve sensor readings, configure alert thresholds, and integrate environmental data into your applications.

​
Sensor Types

Climate Sensors

Temperature, humidity, and air quality monitoring

BLE Sensors

Bluetooth Low Energy sensors for proximity and asset tracking

Button Sensors

Panic buttons and custom trigger devices

​
Available API Endpoints

The Rhombus API provides endpoints across multiple service groups for sensor management:
  • Climate Webservice — Retrieve climate events, manage environmental gateways, query presence windows, and configure thresholds
  • Sensor Webservice — Manage sensor devices, retrieve states, and configure sensor settings
  • BLE Webservice — Access Bluetooth sensor base stations and BLE device data
  • Button Webservice — Query button press events and manage button sensor devices

​
Key Operations

  • Read Sensor Data — Query current and historical readings for temperature, humidity, and air quality
  • Manage Gateways — Add, configure, and remove environmental sensor gateways
  • Set Thresholds — Configure alert thresholds for environmental conditions
  • Track Presence — Use climate presence windows to detect occupancy patterns
All sensor endpoints require authentication with your API key. See the API Reference for complete endpoint documentation including request/response schemas.
