CoAP & IoT

Any created webhook can be used to submit data to it via CoAP. CoAP is a modern IETF specification for resource constrained nodes on constrained networks.

For example, if your Sift has been provisioned with a webhook:

https://webhook.redsift.io/hook/ca2ZFHvWb8lo7/foJyrA1WdlqbZtnVLZW86v3YOPZNGxlxbDrY55/s/red

the URL:

coap://coap.redsift.io/hook/ca2ZFHvWb8lo7/foJyrA1WdlqbZtnVLZW86v3YOPZNGxlxbDrY55/s/red

is also available to you and will invoke the same data channel. This way, if you are attempting to connect a low power IoT device that does not support HTTPS connections, you can still send the data into your cloud using the CoAP UDP protocol.

If your device does not support DNS lookups, you may use the static IP 169.55.60.106 to access your CoAP endpoint living at coap.redsift.io.
