Bambu Bridge is required to connect Bambu Lab printers on your local area network with JetForge server. Because Bambu Lab do not provide public API the only option is to use local MQTT server available on every Bambu Lab 3D printer.
First of all, you need to create api key for secure connection between bridge and JetForge server. In JetForge, navigate to Settings → Bridges, hit Add Bridge button and name your bridge. After hitting Submit button you'll get your api key. Write it down as it will never be shown again. If you'd like to change api key, you'll need to delete existing bridge and create new one.
Bridge requires latest nodejs installation. For windows, get nodejs here. For linux (Ubuntu, Debian) install using command below:
Now run command below to start bridge server. Replace your_api_key with api key you saved before.
That's it. Your Bambu Bridge is up and running!
