Introduction

The Helium Console is a web-based device management tool that allows developers to register, authenticate, and manage their devices on the Helium network. In addition to device management, Console provides prebuilt connections called Integrations to route device data via HTTPs or MQTT; or directly to cloud services like AWS IoT. This article will describe how to connect Milesight LoRaWAN nodes to Helium console.  You can also refer to below video tutorial to know the steps:
