Push to Cloud

Use this node on an Edge instance to selectively push data up to the cloud — for example, forwarding critical telemetry values or alarm events while keeping routine sensor readings local, or synchronising attribute updates to the cloud only after local validation.

  • Attributes scope — required. Default attribute scope used for attribute-related messages (SERVER_SCOPE, CLIENT_SCOPE, or SHARED_SCOPE). Can be overridden per message by including a scope key in the message metadata.
Message type Description
POST_TELEMETRY_REQUEST Time-series data
TIMESERIES_UPDATED Time-series update
POST_ATTRIBUTES_REQUEST Attribute post
ATTRIBUTES_UPDATED Attribute update
ATTRIBUTES_DELETED Attribute deletion
  1. Verify that the message type is supported. If not, route via Failure.

  3. Write the cloud event to persistent storage (local cloud queue).
  4. Route via Success.
Connection Condition
Success Cloud event written to persistent storage. Outgoing message is unchanged.
Failure Unsupported message type or unexpected error.

Originator: DEVICE | Type: POST_TELEMETRY_REQUEST.
