Abstract
A device may receive device information and operation information relating to an Internet of Things (IoT) device type corresponding to IoT devices that are configured to perform a particular operation based on receiving a particular command message. The device information may identify IoT devices of the IoT device type, and the operation information may identify operations that the IoT devices are capable of performing. The device may generate an application programming interface (API) based on the operation information. The API may associate the operations with one or more respective instructions, and may permit a client device to control operation of the IoT devices. An instruction, of the one or more respective instructions, when received by the device, may cause the device to cause a corresponding command message to be transmitted to an IoT device of the IoT devices. The device may store or provide the API.
