Documentation

This page is honest about what exists: a getting-started path through the dashboard, a full API reference, and the source for everything else.

Getting Started

Create an account

Create a flock

A flock groups pigeons under one owner — think of it as a project or a fleet.

Create a pigeon

Creating a pigeon mints its Ed25519 keypair and returns a one-time device token — this is the only time the token is ever shown. Copy it before dismissing the dialog.

Provision the device

Bake the pigeon's endpoint and token into your device build (see the pigeon library below), or use the CoAP-over-TLS PSK fields if your device speaks CoAP instead of HTTPS.

Connect and confirm

Once the device reports in, its shadow, telemetry, and logs (if wired up) start showing on the pigeon's detail page in the dashboard — and any alerts you define start evaluating against it.
