Payload Converters Overview
What the decoder and encoder of a data converter do, how a converter is attached to an integration, which types exist, the runtime limits, and how to test a converter.
Write a Decoder
Write a Custom v2 decoder in JavaScript that turns a device's binary uplink into JSON, test it locally, and check that KONA Core runs it without errors.
Write an Encoder
Write a Custom v2 encoder in JavaScript that turns the JSON your system sends through an integration into the bytes and FPort of a downlink.
Pass-Through Converter
Create a Custom v2 data converter that forwards the payload bytes and port without decoding them, attach it to an integration and check what your system receives.
TEKTELIC Device Converters Library
The predefined TEKTELIC converter types in KONA Core, which integrations can use them, how to pick a converter for a TEKTELIC device, and how updates reach you.
