Yes, MobiusFlow allows you to create and customise objects to match the specific characteristics of your devices. When setting up an object, you can define its attributes (e.g., temperature, humidity), state (e.g., active/inactive), and actions (e.g., turn on/off, reset). Custom objects can also include rules or triggers based on the device's behaviour, such as sending an alert if a threshold is exceeded.

The customisation ensures that workflows accurately represent your physical devices, making it easier to manage complex IoT systems. Additionally, you can share and reuse these objects across multiple workflows, improving consistency and reducing setup time.

The ability to create and customise objects in MobiusFlow enhances the management and scalability of complex IoT systems by providing a tailored representation of physical devices. Customisation allows users to define attributes, states, and actions specific to their devices, ensuring workflows accurately mirror real-world operations.

Integrating rules and triggers for device behaviour—such as sending alerts when thresholds are exceeded—enables proactive management and automation. Sharing and reusing these custom objects across multiple workflows ensures consistency, reduces setup time, and simplifies scaling as the IoT system grows. This flexibility leads to more efficient operations and easier maintenance of interconnected devices.
