Connect Compology to KODE OS for waste metering data integration
Overview
Use this integration to connect Compology dumpster monitoring to KODE OS. REST polling surfaces fill levels, camera-derived metrics, and operational waste data for collection planning.Supported Capabilities
- Discover Devices & Points
- Collect Sensor Data
- Collect Non-Sensor Data
Prerequisites
- An active account with Compology and access to their API or developer portal
- Username and password credentials for the Compology system
- KODE OS environment with access to Data Sources
Configure Connector in KODE OS
- Navigate to Data Sources in your building
- Click API Catalog and search for Compology
- Click + Add Datasource
- Fill in the fields below and complete the three-page setup flow
Discover Devices and Points
After configuring the connector, click Discover on the connector detail page. KODE OS will query the Compology system and return a list of available devices and their data points. Review the discovered items and select the devices you want to register in KODE OS. For more details on the discovery process, see the Discovery guide.Devices and Points
When you discover devices from Compology, KODE OS maps them to the following device types and data points:wasteCollector

Verify that the credentials are correct and have not expired. Check that the URL is reachable from the KODE OS environment. Verify the username and password are correct and the account has not been locked in the Compology system.
Discovery returns no devices
Discovery returns no devices
Verify the connector credentials have sufficient permissions in the Compology system to list devices. Run a test connection first to confirm connectivity. Some systems require specific API scopes or roles for device enumeration.
Data collection stops or gaps appear
Data collection stops or gaps appear
Check the connector status on the Data Sources page. If the status shows an error, review the error logs on the connector detail page. Common causes include expired credentials, network changes, or rate limiting by the Compology API.
