Connect any device or software to ISAAC

While our ecosystem partners have already integrated our API for your convenience, you’re not limited to their solutions. You can connect almost any controllable system to your ISAAC platform using either our API or the built-in Node-RED control environment.

Integrations utilize the ISAAC API to leverage ISAAC Platform features to expand their capabilities and offerings. Systems that integrate with the ISAAC Platform expose schedulable items, variables, control panels, and logging information while also being able to consume the Schedule, the CMS, the User Authentication service, and more.
