Initial Dashboard Setup

Connect Signal Source

Navigate to Settings > Integrations.

Add your first signal source, such as a WebSocket endpoint or API feed.

Set Alerts

Go to Alerts and create your first rule.

Define thresholds, e.g., signal strength < -50dBm triggers a notification.

Make Your First Signal Test

Test connectivity with a simple API call to verify your setup.

const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/v1/signals/test', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    signalId: 'test-123',
    strength: -45
  })
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data); // { status: 'connected', latency: 25ms }

import requests

response = requests.post(
    'https://api.example.com/v1/signals/test',
    headers={
        'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    json={
        'signalId': 'test-123',
        'strength': -45
    }
)

print(response.json())  # {'status': 'connected', 'latency': '25ms'}

curl -X POST https://api.example.com/v1/signals/test \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "signalId": "test-123",
    "strength": -45
  }'

Your test response should show { "status": "connected" }. If not, check your API key in Settings > API Keys.
