Does Nodlyn support CoAP?

Compatibility answer

Yes — at the protocol level. Nodlyn can discover CoAP endpoints and register them for visual workflows.

Discovery can probe hosts for CoAP /.well-known/core on your subnet.

What CoAP support means in Nodlyn

CoAP is UDP-friendly for constrained IoT. Nodlyn can probe /.well-known/core on a subnet and use discovered resources in workflows — useful in labs and lightweight sensors that never speak full HTTP.

If your device documents CoAP resources instead of REST, this is the compatibility path; otherwise prefer HTTP/MQTT.

This page is a compatibility check (supported or not, how you connect). Step-by-step tutorials live on the blog when linked below — so Google (and readers) get one clear “how-to” URL.

Example automations with CoAP

• Lab CoAP resource → collect
• Constrained sensor → MQTT bridge

Quick start for CoAP

1. Open Discovery → Online services (CoAP) or Advanced.
2. Set host/subnet and scan.
3. Use discovered resources in automations.
4. Ideal for lab IoT and constrained sensors.

Can Nodlyn auto-discover CoAP devices?

Yes. Discovery can probe hosts for CoAP /.well-known/core on your subnet. You can also add endpoints manually if discovery is empty.
