Platform API

The Platform API provides comprehensive access to all features of the Blynk IoT Platform through a secure HTTPS API. It enables you to perform Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD) operations on a wide range of entities. These entities include devices, users, organizations, automations, webhooks, tags, templates, and more, giving you extensive control and flexibility.

Platform API is available to Prototype, Production, and Enterprise Plan clients. If you're interested in utilizing this API for your business needs, consider upgrading. If you are already an Enterprise Plan customer, please reach out to your Account Manager.

Authentication

The API uses OAuth2 for authentication. Obtain an access token via the POST /oauth2/token endpoint using your OAuth2 client credentials, then include it as a Bearer token in the Authorization header of every API request:

Authorization: Bearer {access_token}

See the Authentication section for the available grant types and detailed usage.

Rate Limiting

The API enforces rate limiting of 10,000 requests per minute per organization. Exceeding this limit returns a 429 Too Many Requests response.

Pagination

List endpoints support pagination via page (0-indexed) and size (max 1000) query parameters.

Parameter Passing

All resource identifiers (deviceId, organizationId, userId, templateId, etc.) are passed as query parameters.
