Why do sensor identification and live updates not work in Studio?

Studio uses Server-Sent Events (SSE) to stream live updates of sensor data to the browser. SSE is part of the W3C web standards, and communication is through port 443.

If the Identify Sensor by touch function or live sensor animations do not work as expected in Studio, it could be due to:

  • Network security products blocking the standard web protocols
  • Aggressive anti-virus products trying to proxy all HTTP traffic
  • Firewall or anti-virus products blocking long-lasting TCP connections

In the case of the reasons above, you can see the following banner.
