I have a Particle Boron that I will be using to collect weather data. I plan to send the data to Adafruit.io and have figured out how to get that to work. What I also want to do is collect the data on my own database. What are the tools that I need to be able to send the data from the particle console to my own database. Is node red the tool I need or are there others that might also do it? I hope this is roughly clear. I am self taught and consequently don't know all of the lingo.
particle.io --> webhook to my server url --> parse and store data tool

Re: Collecting data from IOT project
I have studied a bit. Is this a good way to do it?
particle IOT --> php webhook to server --> php server receives webhook --> php routes data to local database

Re: Collecting data from IOT project
Particle has an Adafruit IO Library, though, I'm not sure how updated/maintained it is: https://docs.particle.io/cards/librarie ... _Particle/
An alternative is the Adafruit MQTT library which uses the MQTT protocol to talk to Adafruit IO: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_MQTT_Library
I'd also contact Particle's engineers/technical support directly to see what they suggest.
