R-Zero

The R-Zero connector integrates with the R-Zero (CoWorkr) occupancy sensing platform to bring real-time desk and space occupancy data into the Mapped Graph, receiving live occupancy status and count updates from workspace sensors.

Use Cases

Potential use cases include:

• Real-time occupancy monitoring: Track whether spaces and desks are occupied or vacant in real time, enabling live dashboards and space utilization analytics.
• Occupancy counting and space planning: Collect occupancy count data to understand how many people are using a space, supporting informed decisions about space allocation and office design.
• Building automation integration: Combine R-Zero occupancy signals with other building systems in the Mapped graph to drive automated HVAC, lighting, and energy optimization workflows.

Configuration

Auth Requirements

This connector requires the following credentials:

Field	Required	Description
Username	Yes	Your R-Zero platform username. Obtain from your R-Zero account administrator.
Password	Yes	Your R-Zero platform password.
Note: The connector logs out of the R-Zero session after validating credentials and after fetching place mappings, since R-Zero limits the number of concurrent login sessions.

Place Mapping

The connector discovers available workplaces, floor plans, and work points (sensors) from R-Zero and allows you to map them to Mapped graph entities. The mapping table auto-populates from R-Zero's API.

Field	Required	Description
building.siteId	Yes	The Mapped site ID for the building.
building.refId	Yes	The R-Zero WorkPlace ID (auto-populated).
building.name	Yes	The name of the building/workplace from R-Zero.
building.address	No	The address of the building.
floor.refId	Yes	The R-Zero FloorPlan ID (auto-populated).
floor.name	Yes	The name of the floor plan from R-Zero.
floor.level	No	The floor level number.
space.name	No	The space name (used for point naming).
space.code	No	The space code identifier.
thing.refId	Yes	The R-Zero WorkPoint ID — unique identifier for each sensor.
thing.name	Yes	The name of the work point/sensor from R-Zero.
thing.context	No	Additional context including spaceId and spaceType from R-Zero tags. Editable in the mapping table.
Note: The thing.context field is auto-populated from R-Zero work point tags (room name and space type). The spaceId within the context is used to group multiple sensors into the same space entity.

Advanced Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
tsFlushIntervalSec	Number	5	How frequently (in seconds) queued timeseries data is flushed and merged into the Mapped graph. Lower values provide more real-time data but increase load.
tsDownsamplingPeriodSec	Number	60	The downsampling window (in seconds). Within each window, repeated observations for the same point are deduplicated to reduce data volume.
materializePointsForOccupancyZone	Boolean	false	When enabled, timeseries points (Occupancy Status and Occupancy Count) are attached to the Occupancy Zone entity. When disabled (default), points are attached directly to the Space entity.

Mapped Concepts

Mapped Entities

R-Zero Concept	Mapped Entity	exactType	Description
WorkPoint	Thing	OccupancySensingDevice	An individual occupancy sensor (desk sensor, room sensor, etc.)
Room / Space	Space	(varies by mapping)	The physical space where sensors are located, derived from work point grouping
—	OccupancyZone	OccupancyZone	A logical occupancy zone created for each sensing device
—	Point	OccupancyStatus	Timeseries point tracking occupied/vacant status (0 = Vacant, 1 = Occupied)
—	Point	OccupancyCountSensor	Timeseries point tracking the number of occupants

Entity Relationships

• Each Space contains one or more Things (sensing devices) via isLocationOf
• Each Thing (OccupancySensingDevice) serves an OccupancyZone
• Each OccupancyZone is part of a Space via isPartOf
• Points (OccupancyStatus and OccupancyCountSensor) are attached via hasPoint to either the Space (default mode) or the OccupancyZone (when materializePointsForOccupancyZone is enabled)

Mapped Points & Time Series

Point Name	exactType	Datatype	Unit	Description
Occupancy Status - {space name}	OccupancyStatus	INT	NUM	Binary occupancy indicator. Uses a value map: 0 = "Vacant", 1 = "Occupied", 2 = "Null".
Occupancy Count - {space name}	OccupancyCountSensor	INT	NUM	The number of occupants detected in the space.

Note: Timeseries data is streamed in real time via R-Zero's DDP WebSocket connection. Updates are received as occupancy changes occur and are batched before being merged into the graph (controlled by tsFlushIntervalSec).

Graph Diagrams

Default Mode (Points on Space)

Leave materializePointsForOccupancyZone set to false in the Advanced Config for the default mode where Points are tied to Space.

Occupancy Zone Mode (Points on OccupancyZone)

Set materializePointsForOccupancyZone to true in the Advanced Config for the Occupancy Zone Mode where Points are tied to the Occupancy Zone.

Sample Code

Get the latest occupancy status for all points

{
  points(filter: { connectedDataSourceId: { eq: "your-connector-Id" } }) {
    id
    name
    exactType
    valueMap
    mappingKey
    series(latest: true) {
      timestamp
      value {
        int64Value
      }
    }
  }
}

Get occupancy data over a time range

{
  points(
    filter: {
      connectedDataSourceId: { eq: "your-connector-Id" }, 
      and:
      {exactType: { eq: "Occupancy_Status" }}
    }
  ) {
    id
    name
    valueMap
    series(startTime: "2026-01-16", endTime: "2026-01-17") {
      timestamp
      value {
        int64Value
      }
    }
  }
}
