Connect Angus to KODE OS for work orders data integration
Overview
Use this integration to connect Angus to KODE OS. You can discover devices and points, collect sensor and non-sensor data with hybrid snapshot collection, and use supported actions for work order workflows.Supported Capabilities
- Discover Devices & Points
- Collect Sensor Data
- Collect Non-Sensor Data
Prerequisites
- An active account with Angus and access to their API or developer portal
- Username and password credentials for the Angus 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 Angus
- 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 Angus 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 Angus, KODE OS maps them to the following device types and data points:IO Reader / Controller
Canonical Type:IOREADER
What Data You Get
Point History
Time-series readings including INACTIVE, collected at regular intervals from connected devicesWork Orders
Maintenance and service requests including title, description, status, priority, assignee, due dates, vendor response, resolution details, and cost estimates KODE OS maps Angus data to these standard fields:Equipment
Equipment inventory and metadata records including equipment type, model, location, and maintenance statusPolling Schedule
- WorkOrder — Default polling: 5 minutes (min: 5 minutes, max: 1 hours)
- Equipment — Default polling: 1 hours (min: 1 hours, max: 1 days)
- Point History — Default polling: 1 days (min: 1 days, max: 1 days)
Available Actions
Create Work Order
Type: Write Creates a new work order in the Angus AnyWhere systemExample Request
Expected Result
- KODE OS sends the action to the external API using the configured connector credentials
- The external system returns success (typically HTTP 2xx) and processes the requested operation
Use Cases
Once connected, this integration enables you to:- Centralize maintenance requests and work order status from facility management systems
- Create and update work orders directly from KODE OS when issues are detected
- Track maintenance KPIs including response time, completion rate, and cost
Troubleshooting
Authentication or connection error
Authentication or connection error
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 Angus system.
Discovery returns no devices
Discovery returns no devices
Verify the connector credentials have sufficient permissions in the Angus 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 Angus API.
