Monitor Remote IoT Sensors via MQTT into InfluxDB
When an MQTT sensor message arrives, it prepares the payload and writes the reading to an InfluxDB bucket.
What it does
# Remote IOT Sensor monitoring via MQTT and InfluxDB ## Overview Automated workflow: Remote IOT Sensor monitoring via MQTT and InfluxDB. This workflow integrates 5 different services: stickyNote, httpRequest, code, stopAndError, mqttTrigger. It contains 8 nodes and follows best practices for error handling and security. ## Workflow Details - Total Nodes: 8 - Node Types: 5 - Error Handling: ✅ Implemented - Security: ✅ Hardened (no sensitive data) - Documentation: ✅ Complete ## Node Breakdown - Sticky Note: stickyNote - Sticky Note1: stickyNote - Sticky Note3: stickyNote - Remote Sensor MQTT Trigger: mqttTrigger - Data ingest to InfluxDB bucket: httpRequest - Payload data preparation node: code - Error Handler: stopAndError - Error Handler for 51e6f59f: stopAndError ## Usage Instructions 1. Configure Credentials: Set up all required API keys and credentials 2. Update Variables: Replace any placeholder values with actual data 3. Test Workflow: Run in test mode to verify functionality 4. Deploy: Activate the workflow for production use ## Security Notes - All sensitive data has been removed or replaced with placeholders - Error handling is implemented for reliability - Follow security best practices when configuring credentials ## Troubleshooting - Check error logs if workflow fails - Verify all credentials are properly configured - Ensure all required services are accessible
