Wormhole · Secure web access

Reach device-hosted web tools without opening inbound ports.

Dataplicity Wormhole gives a Linux edge device a secure URL for its local admin page, dashboard, or API through an outbound connection—without a VPN, static IP, port forwarding, or inbound firewall rule.

Dataplicity device workspace with Terminal, Wormhole, Timeline, and Diagnostics tabs

Remote access for more than shells

Publish the device interfaces your support team, installers, and customers already need, while keeping access governed by Dataplicity.

Wormhole

Fixed device URLs

Expose a device-hosted UI behind a stable URL that follows the device record.

Access

Policy-scoped sharing

Grant scoped access without handing out SSH keys, VPN credentials, or network exceptions.

Ports

Port forwarding

Forward web, MQTT, diagnostics, or custom ports through the same outbound connection.

Audit

Session history

Every open, share, and close event stays attached to the device for support and security review.

What teams publish through Wormhole

Reach the local tools that matter during installation, support, diagnostics, and customer handover.

Admin UI

Reach device admin pages

Let support or installers configure a device-local control panel without joining the customer's network.

Dashboards

EmonCMS and Adopisoft dashboards

Share device-local monitoring UIs during commissioning, support, or warranty investigations.

API

Secure device APIs for control systems

Give trusted systems a stable URL for device diagnostics, integration tests, or controlled actions.

Apps

Popular tools

Use the same approach for Home Assistant, WordPress, ESP-IDF tooling, or your own embedded web app.

From device record to governed web access

Choose the device and local service, create a scoped Wormhole URL, share it with an approved user or system, then close access with session history preserved.

01 · Open

Create a wormhole session

Generate a scoped URL from the device record without changing the customer network.

02 · Share

Hand off the fixed URL

Send the link to support, installation teams, or approved systems with the right access policy.

03 · Close

Close and audit

Terminate access when the work is done and keep the session evidence beside logs and support notes.
