ThingsBoard Skill

Manage ThingsBoard IoT platform resources including devices, dashboards, telemetry data, and users.

Setup

  1. Configure your ThingsBoard server in credentials.json:

    [
  {
    "name": "Server Thingsboard",
    "url": "http://localhost:8080",
    "account": [
      {
        "sysadmin": {
          "email": "sysadmin@thingsboard.org",
          "password": "sysadmin"
        }
      },
      {
        "tenant": {
          "email": "tenant@thingsboard.org",
          "password": "tenant"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
]

  2. Set environment variables:

    export TB_URL="http://localhost:8080"
export TB_USERNAME="tenant@thingsboard.org"
export TB_PASSWORD="tenant"

  3. Get authentication token:

    export TB_TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST "$TB_URL/api/auth/login" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{\"username\":\"$TB_USERNAME\",\"password\":\"$TB_PASSWORD\"}" | jq -r '.token')

Usage

All commands use curl to interact with the ThingsBoard REST API.

Authentication

Login and get token:

curl -s -X POST "$TB_URL/api/auth/login" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{\"username\":\"$TB_USERNAME\",\"password\":\"$TB_PASSWORD\"}" | jq -r '.token'

Refresh token (when expired):

curl -s -X POST "$TB_URL/api/auth/token" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{\"refreshToken\":\"$TB_REFRESH_TOKEN\"}" | jq -r '.token'

Get current user info:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/auth/user" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Device Management

List all tenant devices:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/tenant/devices?pageSize=100&page=0" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq '.data[] | {name, id: .id.id, type}'

Get device by ID:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/device/{deviceId}" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Get device credentials:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/device/{deviceId}/credentials" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Telemetry & Attributes

Get telemetry keys:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/{deviceId}/keys/timeseries" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Get latest telemetry:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/{deviceId}/values/timeseries?keys=temperature,humidity" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Get timeseries data with time range:

START_TS=$(($(date +%s)*1000 - 3600000))  # 1 hour ago
END_TS=$(($(date +%s)*1000))              # now
curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/{deviceId}/values/timeseries?keys=temperature&startTs=$START_TS&endTs=$END_TS&limit=100" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Get attribute keys:

# Client scope
curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/{deviceId}/keys/attributes/CLIENT_SCOPE" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

# Shared scope
curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/{deviceId}/keys/attributes/SHARED_SCOPE" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

# Server scope
curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/{deviceId}/keys/attributes/SERVER_SCOPE" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Get attributes by scope:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/{deviceId}/values/attributes/CLIENT_SCOPE?keys=attribute1,attribute2" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Save device attributes:

curl -s -X POST "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/{deviceId}/attributes/SERVER_SCOPE" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"attribute1":"value1","attribute2":"value2"}' | jq

Delete timeseries keys:

curl -s -X DELETE "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/{deviceId}/timeseries/delete?keys=oldKey1,oldKey2&deleteAllDataForKeys=true" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN"

Dashboard Management

List all dashboards:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/tenant/dashboards?pageSize=100&page=0" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq '.data[] | {name, id: .id.id}'

Get dashboard info:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/dashboard/{dashboardId}" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Make dashboard public:

curl -s -X POST "$TB_URL/api/customer/public/dashboard/{dashboardId}" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Get public dashboard info (no auth required):

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/dashboard/info/{publicDashboardId}" | jq

Remove public access:

curl -s -X DELETE "$TB_URL/api/customer/public/dashboard/{dashboardId}" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN"

User Management

List tenant users:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/tenant/users?pageSize=100&page=0" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq '.data[] | {email, firstName, lastName, id: .id.id}'

List customers:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/customers?pageSize=100&page=0" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq '.data[] | {title, id: .id.id}'

Get customer users:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/customer/{customerId}/users?pageSize=100&page=0" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq '.data[]'

Assets

List all assets:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/tenant/assets?pageSize=100&page=0" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq '.data[] | {name, type, id: .id.id}'

Get asset by ID:

curl -s "$TB_URL/api/asset/{assetId}" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

Notes

  • Authentication: JWT tokens expire after a configured period (default: 2 hours). Re-authenticate when you receive 401 errors.
  • Device/Dashboard IDs: Entity IDs are in the format {entityType: "DEVICE", id: "uuid"}. Use the id field for API calls.
  • Pagination: Most list endpoints support pageSize and page parameters (default: 100 items per page, max: 1000).
  • Attribute Scopes:
    • CLIENT_SCOPE: Client-side attributes (set by devices)
    • SHARED_SCOPE: Shared between server and devices
    • SERVER_SCOPE: Server-side only (not visible to devices)
  • Timestamps: Use milliseconds since epoch for startTs and endTs parameters.
  • Rate Limits: Check your ThingsBoard server configuration for API rate limits.
  • HTTPS: For production, use HTTPS URLs (e.g., https://demo.thingsboard.io).

Examples

# Complete workflow: Login, list devices, get telemetry
export TB_URL="http://localhost:8080"

export TB_PASSWORD="tenant"

# Get token
export TB_TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST "$TB_URL/api/auth/login" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{\"username\":\"$TB_USERNAME\",\"password\":\"$TB_PASSWORD\"}" | jq -r '.token')

# List all devices
curl -s "$TB_URL/api/tenant/devices?pageSize=10&page=0" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq '.data[] | {name, type, id: .id.id}'

# Get first device ID
DEVICE_ID=$(curl -s "$TB_URL/api/tenant/devices?pageSize=1&page=0" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq -r '.data[0].id.id')

# Get telemetry keys for device
curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/$DEVICE_ID/keys/timeseries" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

# Get latest telemetry values
curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/$DEVICE_ID/values/timeseries?keys=temperature,humidity" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

# Get historical data (last hour)
START_TS=$(($(date +%s)*1000 - 3600000))
END_TS=$(($(date +%s)*1000))
curl -s "$TB_URL/api/plugins/telemetry/DEVICE/$DEVICE_ID/values/timeseries?keys=temperature&startTs=$START_TS&endTs=$END_TS&limit=100" \
  -H "X-Authorization: Bearer $TB_TOKEN" | jq

# List dashboards and make first one public
DASHBOARD_ID=$(curl -s "$TB_URL/api/tenant/dashboards?pageSize=1&page=0" \
