Introduction

Application profiles allow customers to group several client devices under a specific profile. Customers can use the application profiles in their web applications to display data and connectivity information regarding a single or group of IoT devices registered under a specific application. Every client device can only be registered under a single application profile.

Streams for an Application Profile

Haxiot X-ON provides different methods of transporting data to web applications. Streams provide a way to view and connect to data from client devices deployed in the field. Clients can create different types of streams for their web applications.
