"iotcModelId" details in provisioning_payload #1

Closed ghost closed 3 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

Hi I was wondering that in iot_central_sample.py file how do we come to know the key "iotcModelId" for assigning a template to the device during device registration in line number 226 provisioning_device_client.provisioning_payload = '{"iotcModelId":"%s"}' % (model_identity)

Can we also send as a payload the name of the device along with model identity..?

If yes how can we do it...?

You can get the value for iotcModelId from the IoT Central application by selecting the "device template" -> clicking the device template you want the id for -> then click View identity and copy the value in interface @id

Right now you cannot specify the device name in the payload but that is a feature that is being considered for addition as others have noted it would be useful.
