Create a Route

To create a Route, you'll only need to follow these simple steps:

  1. Select a data provider.
  2. Configure the data provider.
  3. Connect a destination on the Route’s flow map.

Step 1: Select a Data Provider

Start by navigating to the Routes section and click on Create Route.

Note: If you don’t see this option, your Workspace role may be view-only. Contact your Workspace admin or Support to proceed.

From the list of supported technologies, you can:

  • Search or browse to find available integrations.
  • Select the technology you’d like to integrate.
  • View details about requirements, setup steps, and configuration instructions.
     

Integrating a Device: Three Main Methods

Using Supported Technologies

Best for: Devices and Systems officially listed as supported.
 

  • Select the device’s manufacturer from the list of supported technologies.
  • Configuration is minimal.

Webhooks

Best for: Receiving updates in real-time or near real-time. Read more.
 

  • Ideal for reducing data latency.
  • Your system will push data directly to Gundi.

API Push

Best for: Integrating with Gundi when other options are not available.
 

  • Your system will push data directly to our API endpoint.
  • Might require development effort on data provider's side. See our API documentation .

Choosing the Right Method

  • Check the supported technology list first. If your device is listed, this is the simplest option.
  • If not supported, consider whether the system can push data via webhooks or via an API implementation.

Select Next to continue. 
 

Step 2: Configure the Data Provider

You'll be prompted to enter:

  • Route Name: A descriptive name to identify this Route within Gundi.
  • Route Workspace: Determines ownership and visibility of the Route.

You may also need to complete the required fields (marked with an asterisk *) and optionally configure additional parameters to set up the data provider. Refer to the documentation available on the right side of your screen for guidance on how to complete this step.

Select Next to continue. Gundi creates the Route and opens its flow map, where you connect a destination.
