# Foobot Binding
|
|
|
|
This binding fetches the Indoor Air Quality data of each of your Foobot devices from the Foobot cloud service.
|
|
|
|
To use this binding, you first need to [register and get your API key](https://api.foobot.io/apidoc/index.html).
|
|
The api is rate limited to 200 calls per day. If you need a higher rate limit please contact Foobot.
|
|
|
|
## Supported Things
|
|
|
|
The binding supports the following things:
|
|
|
|
| Thing type | Name
|
|
|-------------|------------------------------------------
|
|
| account | The bridge with connection configuration
|
|
| device | The sensor thing
|
|
|
|
## Discovery
|
|
|
|
The binding requires you to have a Foobot account and an API key.
|
|
The discovery process is able to automatically discover all devices associated with your Foobot account.
|
|
|
|
## Bridge Configuration
|
|
|
|
Bridge has the following configuration parameters:
|
|

|
|
| refreshInterval | Refresh interval in minutes, minimal 5 minutes | Optional, the default value is 8 minutes.
|
|

The minimal refresh rate is 5 minutes because the device only sends data every 5 minutes.
