To start receiving your data instantly on your server or application, sign into your Senseware account at my.senseware.co and create a data forward in the Data Forward App. Here you can add, remove, and configure data forwards. For each sensor you subscribe to, you will start receiving JSON formatted packets at the streaming URL you entered. The structure of the JSON is as follows:

Example JSON Packet:

Important Note: When implementing the receiving end for data streams, you must support future additions of fields to the JSON object. We highly recommend doing this by parsing the JSON object and then referencing fields in the object by name. This requirement assures that your receiving code remains compatible with future software releases by Senseware.
