App Data Schema

The Ioto Cloud uses the Ioto agent database schema to define what device specific data should be stored in the cloud and what are the device manageable entities.

The schema describes the device entities and their data properties and data types. From this, apps are able to dynamically construct a user interface when guided by the display.json5 file.

Ioto defines a default schema when you create the device cloud. This schema supports a generic key/value store. Initially, you can use the default schema, but as you progress, you may wish to define your own data entities to store device specific data.

The device schema is fixed per device cloud and is common across all apps for that device cloud. You can modify the device schema via the Cloud Modify panel.
