Get Started With displayAQI

Create a workspace, connect your Qingping or AirGradient monitors, start the 7-day trial, and place each device in a building.

displayAQI reads your Qingping and AirGradient monitors about every 5 minutes and shows each device on a dashboard. Once devices are connected, you can group them by building, send email alerts, and share readings in website widgets and on lobby screens.

Set Up Your Workspace

A workspace holds your devices, buildings, displays, and team.

Sign up at app.displayaqi.com.

Select Set up a direct workspace, enter a Workspace name, and select Set up workspace.

On the dashboard, select Add your first device and choose your monitors' brand.

Connect your account. Qingping uses an App Key and App Secret; AirGradient uses a Place token. The brand guides show where to find them.

Select the devices to add. For your first devices, select Continue to billing, choose Monthly or Annual, and select Continue to Checkout.

Enter your card in Stripe Checkout. No charge today: the 7-day trial starts, and the first charge comes when it ends.

Return to displayAQI. The devices you selected connect automatically. Select Go to dashboard.

Open Buildings in the sidebar and place each device in a building, floor, and room. See Organize devices by building, floor, and room.

Pricing is $12 per device per month or $108 per device per year. See Billing and your free trial.

What You See Next

Current readings appear on the dashboard as each device reports. For Qingping devices, displayAQI also imports the last 30 days of history in the background. AirGradient history starts when you connect.

Add More Devices Later

Select Add device on the dashboard and repeat the connect and select steps. Once billing is active, the Update billed devices? dialog shows the new billed total; select Update billing to continue.

When a Partner Manages Your Workspace

If an installer or reseller manages your workspace, they connect devices for you and the Add device button doesn't appear. See the Partner guide.
