Not connecting to the broker. Continuously in the loop of offline close reconnect close reconnect...

var awsIot = require('aws-iot-device-sdk');
var uuid = require('uuid');
var device = awsIot.device({
    keyPath: "<path>-private.pem.key",
    certPath: "<path>-certificate.pem.crt",
    caPath: "<path>-root-CA.key",
    clientId: <unique identifier >,
    debug:true,
    host: <hostId>,
    will:{
        topic:"blahblahblah",
        payload:"disconnecting",
        qos:0,
        retain:false
    }
});

device
    .on('connect', function() {
        console.log('connect');
        device.subscribe('cgw/devices/register');
    });

device.on('message', (topic, payload, message) => {
    console.log(topic);
    console.log(payload);
    console.log(message);
});

   device
      .on('close', function() {
         console.log('close');
      });
   device
      .on('reconnect', function() {
         console.log('reconnect');
      });
   device
      .on('offline', function() {
         console.log('offline');
      });
   device
      .on('error', function(error) {
         console.log('error', error);
      });

I am trying to run the sample code above but the device is not getting connected. I have also tried passing

retain param as false

but still the program shows

offline close reconnecting close reconnecting close reconnecting close reconnecting ....

My bad. The policy ARN needs to be edited for the device.

we change our policy of arn with new connection code and where is this uuid come from

I'm having the same issue. Can you please elaborate on what the solution is? Can you paste your policy here for reference?
