Use Cases
- Real-time environmental monitoring using IoT sensors
- Automated data logging for smart home applications
- Industrial IoT data management and analysis
- Temperature and humidity tracking for research purposes
How It Works
MQTT trigger listens for incoming sensor data Payload data preparation node processes the JSON message Data is formatted for InfluxDB ingestion HTTP request node sends the formatted data to InfluxDB
Setup Steps
- 1Import the workflow template into n8n
- 2Configure MQTT credentials for the Mosquitto broker
- 3Set the InfluxDB URL and authentication token in the HTTP request node
- 4Adjust the organization ID and bucket name in the InfluxDB request URL
- 5Activate the workflow to start monitoring sensor data
