Default data processing

Navixy processes all device data through the default flow when no custom IoT Logic flow is assigned, ensuring no telemetry is lost or dropped.

Navixy automatically ensures that every device in your account transmits data to the Navixy platform, regardless of whether the device is assigned to a custom flow. This guarantee operates at the system level and requires no configuration.

When a device isn't included in any custom flow, Navixy still processes its data and delivers it to the Navixy platform directly, without any transformations. This means no device data is ever lost due to routing configuration. Custom flows are how you go beyond this baseline. They let you enrich data with calculated attributes, apply conditional routing, and forward results to external systems. If your devices only need to reach the Navixy platform without any processing, no custom flow is required.

How data flows

Without a custom flow, device data travels directly to the Navixy platform without any processing or transformation. Navixy receives the raw device data and delivers it as-is, ensuring the device is visible and monitored in the platform.

With a custom flow, data enters through a Data Source node, passes through any processing nodes you have configured, and exits through an Output Endpoint node set to Default endpoint mode to reach the platform. This path lets you enrich, filter, and route data before it arrives. When a device is assigned to a custom flow, both paths run simultaneously: the custom flow handles processing, while Navixy independently ensures the raw data reaches the platform regardless.

Disabling a custom flow stops all data transmission for the devices assigned to it. The automatic system coverage doesn't substitute for a disabled flow. Re-enable the flow to restore data transmission for the affected devices.

Sending data to the Navixy platform

Sending data to the Navixy platform from a custom flow doesn't require a dedicated node type. It's the same Output Endpoint node used for any other destination, configured with Mode set to Default endpoint: a pre-configured, non-editable option that transmits directly to Navixy's servers. Unless you give it a custom name, this node appears on the canvas labeled Default Output Endpoint. See Output Endpoint node for the full configuration steps.

This ensures that data processed by a custom flow is properly formatted and transmitted to the Navixy platform, enabling full visibility of your devices in the main Navixy interface.

Each custom flow should maintain a connection to an Output Endpoint node in Default endpoint mode to ensure device data is sent to the platform, enabling monitoring capabilities using Navixy tools. If this connection is removed from a custom flow, data from the devices involved in that flow no longer reaches the platform.

Flow and device relationships

The following principles govern how device data coverage works across flows:

• Every device in your account has a guaranteed path to transmit data. The system ensures that all devices connected to your account always have a defined route for their data, maintaining complete visibility of your device fleet.

• A device can belong to multiple flows at the same time. All flows that include the device process its data simultaneously, and results are merged to avoid data loss. There are no constraints on how many flows a device can belong to.

• Automatic system coverage always runs in parallel with custom flows. Regardless of how many custom flows a device belongs to, Navixy always processes its data independently. Assigning a device to a custom flow does not replace or affect this behavior.

This approach ensures complete data coverage while allowing for customized data processing where needed.

Data Stream Analyzer is scoped to custom flows. Devices that are not assigned to any custom flow cannot currently be monitored through it.
