Other ways to send data to your Monitor

You can use cURL to send data and test your monitor.

This can be useful for you to learn the step-by-step process or for debugging purposes.

Manual step-by-step

After consume the endpoint /api/authenticate you will receive a token. Use this token every time you access the endpoint /api/send.

All communication is done using JSON, a lightweight data-interchange format. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent.
