Editing json Error #574

Closed tarodd closed 2 years ago

tarodd commented 2 years ago

Describe the bug You are managing some edge devices that are sending data to Thingworx. We are managing them with Azure IoT Explorer, however, when trying to update the modules using the module twin function we get an error message when saving.

error Failed to update module identity twin for module $edgeAgent: Error: ErrorCode:SystemModuleModifyUnauthorizedAccess;Unauthorized to modify reserved module.;

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. open Azure IoT Explorer
  2. select iOT hub >
  3. select device Devices >
  4. module identities >
  5. $edgeAgent >
  6. Module twin.
  7. When we get to here we attempt to change part of the JSON file and save. This triggers the error message “Failed to update module identity twin for module $edgeAgent:
  8. Error: ErrorCode:SystemModuleModifyUnauthorizedAccess;Unauthorized to modify reserved module

Expected behavior we are expecting the the json to change and updates to save

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Hi @tarodd As this error message is indicating, $edgeAgent is a reserved module which is not allowed to be modified. If you use API directly, I believe it will respond with the same error message. We don't have a sophisticated form for users of Explorer to update edge twin like Azure Portal does. I would recommend trying out Azure Portal for your use case. Meanwhile, please let us know if you think this issue needs to be reopened if I misunderstood anything.
