Ubidots

Ubidots is an Industrial AIoT platform designed for OEMs, system integrators, and engineering firms that need to ingest, visualize, and act on device telemetry at scale. The platform exposes a REST API (v1.6 and v2) and an MQTT API for sending and retrieving time-series data from IoT sensors and devices. Developers can manage devices, variables, dashboards, organizations, and event-triggered alerts programmatically, while serverless UbiFunctions enable custom processing logic without managing infrastructure. Authentication uses short-lived or persistent tokens passed via the X-Auth-Token header or URL parameter, and throughput is gated per plan from 6 dots per second (Professional) up to 1,000 dots per second on private Enterprise deployments.

Ubidots publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include IoT, Internet of Things, Telemetry, Time Series, and MQTT.

The Ubidots catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context.

Ubidots’ developer surface includes documentation, engineering blog, changelog, pricing, and 13 more developer resources.
