Network Survey Messaging API

The Network Survey (NS) Messaging API defines a set of messages that can be used to describe wireless survey related events. The Network Survey Android App uses this Messaging API to stream survey results to an MQTT broker. Therefore, if you are interested in consuming the MQTT stream, you will want to become familiar with the NS Messaging API.

 

The NS Messaging API was originally designed for the Network Survey Android app, but ended up finding usage outside of Network Survey. Therefore, the Messaging API has grown beyond this app, and now contains message schemas (such as Energy Detection) that don't apply to the Network Survey Android App. Only certain messages from the NS Messaging API are sent by the Network Survey Android App. Consult the manual for the messages supported by the app.
