Helium integration with Widgelix
Decentralised LoRaWAN network
Helium is a community-built LoRaWAN network with coverage in many cities worldwide. Devices are managed through a Helium console provider; Widgelix adds the application layer: decoding, dashboards, actions and reports.
How data reaches Widgelix
Add an HTTP integration in your Helium console that posts uplinks to the Widgelix endpoint with the asset's access token.
Downlinks
Supported. Widgelix uses the Helium downlink URL and key of your integration, so commands can be sent from dashboards and actions.
Setup
Connect Helium in a few steps
- 01In Widgelix, choose Helium as the asset connectivity and copy the endpoint URL and access token.
- 02In your Helium console, create an HTTP integration with the Widgelix URL and token, and connect it to your devices.
- 03For downlinks, add the Helium device ID, host, integration ID, downlink key and port in Widgelix.
- 04Load a device template or write a decoder.

Helium integration FAQ
+Which Helium console do I use?
Any Helium console provider that offers HTTP integrations and downlink URLs works with Widgelix.
