Getting information about the Gateway in Node Red

[Manon Scatassi]

Hi,
I have a MultiConnect Conduit with a LoRa mdot.

Is it possible to get information about the Gateway in Node Red ?
My goal is to create a message for a custom server (http) in which you’d have the ID of the Gateway, its model, timestamp, hopefully its state and/or other things about the Gateway itself…

Thank you

I’d recommend using the REST api on the conduit. You can find more details on the API here: http://www.multitech.net/developer/software/mtr-api-reference/

Thanks for your prompt answer. I did manage to get the ID of the Gateway by sending resquest to the rest API.
Correct me if I am wrong, but this will work only if I want the ID of the Gateway hosting the application server. If I want the ID of a packet forwarder, this solution won’t work, will it ?

It will work. The REST API you’re using is always running on an AEP conduit, its what provides the administration webpage. You can in fact configure the LoRa server mode using the api/loraNetwork/lora endpoint.

Perfect then !
