Industrial device to REST API

A general form of the same problem: an application team wants device data over HTTP and does not want to learn a fieldbus. The gateway does the protocol work and posts JSON.

Architecture

Typical use case

An internal application, a data lake ingest endpoint or a partner API that accepts JSON over HTTPS.

Deployable today for devices reachable over Modbus TCP or RTU.

Configuration approach

One definition, many destinations

The same tags can go to your API and to a broker or a database at the same time.

Authentication and retries

API key, bearer or basic, with timeouts, retries and buffering.

Quality travels with the value

A value that could not be read is reported as such rather than silently repeating the last good number.

Other integrations

Modbus to MQTT

Publish Modbus registers to an MQTT broker as engineering values.

Modbus to REST API

POST Modbus values to an HTTP endpoint.

Modbus to OPC UA

Expose Modbus devices as an OPC UA server.

Build a Industrial device to REST API gateway

Create a project, define the device and its tags in the Edge Logic Editor, and download a runtime to test at the plant.
