Authentication

To access the AirQo Analytics API, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Get an AirQo Account: Obtain an AirQo Analytics Account by visiting: https://analytics.airqo.net/account/login

  2. Register a Client: Once you have an account, log in and navigate to your account settings. Under the API tab, register a new CLIENT application to generate client credentials.

  3. Create an Access Token: With the client credentials, you can create an access token. This token will be used to authenticate your API requests.

  4. Use the token: Copy the newly created access token and include it as a query parameter (token) in the API endpoints shared below.

Please note that the V1 endpoint for device measurements will be deprecated on 30th July 2023. After 30th July 2023, all requests to these endpoints will result in errors.

We recommend that you start the migration to Version 2 before this deprecation date.
