TheThingsNetwork gateway monitor with Telegram alarms

Description

This a flow to monitor the status of LoRaWan gateways connected to The Things Network (TTN) using the undocumented NOC API. Periodically inject a message with the gateway EUI as payload and connect the output to a Telegram bot.

Configuration

  • You will need to edit/add inject nodes with the name of the gateway in the topic and the EUI in the payload. Configure it to check the status every X minutes.

  • Create a telegram bot (using the @BotFather) and configure the token in the telegram configuration node.

  • You will also need to add the chatId to send the notification to in the "telegram payload" function node. To get the chatId use another bot like @my_id_bot.
