Afero Cloud Devices API is one of 4 APIs that [Afero](https://apis.io/providers/afero/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Devices, Device Management, Internet of Things, and Telemetry. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification and API documentation.

The Afero Cloud Devices API lists the devices linked to an Afero account and, via the expansions query parameter, returns device state (available, visible, connected, connectable, linked, RSSI, location), system and partner device tags, or the raw device attribute values. It also executes asynchronous attribute_read and attribute_write actions against a device by attribute ID with hexadecimal little-endian payloads, and updates a device friendly name.
