MQTT Clients

Create and manage MQTT client accounts

MQTT clients are the user accounts that authenticate to your MQTT broker. Each client has a username, password, and optional ACL rule set assignment.

Client List

Navigate to Dashboard → Sessions and click on a specific client to see their profile, or navigate directly to a client's detail page.

Client Details

Each client profile shows:

  • Connection status - current session state
  • Session history - list of past connections
  • ACL rule set - which access control rules apply to this client
  • Client metadata - creation date, last connection, protocol version

Creating Clients

See Client Credentials for creating static username/password clients.

Deleting a Client
