IoT-Device Messages default encoding #872

Closed KamalAman closed 4 years ago

KamalAman commented 4 years ago

IoT Device messages should default to application/json content type and UTF-8 encoding.

    const message = new Message(JSON.stringify(data));
    message.contentEncoding = "utf-8";
    message.contentType = "application/json";

Currently users need to manually specify the default encoding and type to use things such as message routing in IoTHub based on the $body.

I would suggest that you make this request via user voice.

Not the first to ask this question. Essentially though this would be viewed as a breaking change. That does NOT stand much of chance of happening.
