Action Type
Action Types determine what happens when your Action is triggered. Think of them as the "do this" part of your automation rule - after a trigger condition is met, the Action Type defines the specific task that will be executed.
TagoCore offers several built-in Action Types to handle common automation needs:
Run Analysis Script
This type executes custom Analysis scripts when your Action triggers. Perfect for complex data processing, calculations, or custom business logic that goes beyond simple data forwarding.
Common use cases:
- Process sensor data and calculate averages or trends
- Transform data formats before sending to external systems
Send HTTP Request
This type sends data to external web services or APIs via HTTP POST requests. When your Action triggers, it automatically sends the device data (in JSON format) to any web endpoint you specify.
Common use cases:
- Forward device data to cloud services or databases
- Integrate with third-party IoT platforms or analytics tools
