Forwarding (DEPRECATED)

Forward Messages

To enable message forwarding over HTTP, update your Meshblu device to contain the following properties:

JSON

{
  meshblu: {
    forwarders: {
			sent:     [
        {
      		type: "webhook",
          url: "http://requestb.in/18gkt511",
          method: "POST"
        }
    	]
    }
  }
}

Currently there are four types of messages that can be forwarded: broadcast, config, received, sent.

Forward Meshblu Credentials

Generate a one-time Meshblu token and send it to the webhook. Sent as an HTTP header Authorization: Bearer <base64 encoded string>. The token will only be valid until the recipient of the Webhook responds to the HTTP request.

❗️

Security Warning

The Bearer token will allow the recipient to access and modify your meshblu device. When the request has finished, the token will be removed.

JSON

{
  meshblu: {
    forwarders: {
			sent:     [
        {
      		type: "webhook",
          url: "http://requestb.in/18gkt511",
          method: "POST",
          generateAndForwardMeshbluCredentials: true
        }
    	]
    }
  }
}

Signed Requests

To ensure that you are receiving an authorized webhook, you may use the HTTP Signature Scheme. You can verify the request without contacting Meshblu to verify it's authenticity.

JSON

{
  meshblu: {
    forwarders: {
			sent:     [
        {
      		type: "webhook",
          url: "http://requestb.in/18gkt511",
          method: "POST",
          signRequest: true
        }
    	]
    }
  }
}
