Nearevo API and Tech Docs
Please download and read our technical documentation, API and webhook guide to help you manage and configure your Bluetooth beacons and NFC tags as well as receive device usage information in real-time.
We have also created 2 sample PHP scripts to get you started with using our API's and Webhooks...- API script: download here
- Webhook script: download here
If you use the popular Postman service to test API's then please import our collection which contains an example of using our API's.
The guide is written for developers and technical staff, and we also have some useful bits on our FAQ's and Support pages. We will also continually add to the guide so please re-visit from time to time. But if you can't find the answer to your questions then please contact us for further assistance.
Note that if you've only just received your devices then they will need to be activated. This can be done in the dashboard by clicking the green envelope icon next to the new devices. But you can also do it with the set-device API - really useful if you have many devices to activate!
