Device Update Models

Model ID is how smart devices advertise their capabilities to Azure IoT applications with IoT Plug and Play.To learn more on how to build smart devices to advertise their capabilities to Azure IoT applications visit IoT Plug and Play device developer guide.

Device Update for IoT Hub requires the IoT Plug and Play smart device to announce a model ID as part of the device connection. Learn how to announce a model ID.

Device Update has several PnP models defined that support DU features. The Device Update model, 'dtmi:azure:iot:deviceUpdateContractModel;3', supports the core functionality and uses the device update core interface to send update actions and metadata to devices and receive update status from devices.

The other supported model is dtmi:azure:iot:deviceUpdateModel;3 which extends deviceUpdateContractModel;3 and also uses other PnP interfaces that send device properties and information and enable diagnostic features. Learn more about the [Device Update Models and Interfaces Versions] (https://github.com/Azure/iot-plugandplay-models/tree/main/dtmi/azure/iot).

The Device Update agent uses the dtmi:azure:iot:deviceUpdateModel;3 which supports all the latest features in the 1.1.0 release. This model supports the V5 manifest version.Older manifests will work with the latest agents but new features require the use of the latest manifest version.

Agent metadata

The Device Update agent uses agent metadata fields to send information to Device Update services.

Name Schema Direction Description Example
deviceProperties Map device to cloud The set of properties that contain the manufacturer, model, and other device information. See Device properties section for details.
compatPropertyNames String (comma separated) device to cloud The device reported properties that are used to check for compatibility of the device to target the update deployment. Limited to five device properties. "compatPropertyNames": "manufacturer,model"
lastInstallResult Map device to cloud The result reported by the agent. It contains result code, extended result code, and result details for main update and other step updates.
resultCode integer device to cloud A code that contains information about the result of the last update action. Can be populated for either success or failure. 700
extendedResultCode integer device to cloud A code that contains additional information about the result. Can be populated for either success or failure. 0x80004005
resultDetails string device to cloud Customer-defined free form string to provide additional result details. Returned to the twin without parsing
stepResults map device to cloud The result reported by the agent containing result code, extended result code, and result details for step updates. "step_1": { "resultCode": 0,"extendedResultCode": 0, "resultDetails": ""}
state integer device to cloud An integer that indicates the current state of the Device Update agent. See State section for details.
workflow complex device to cloud A set of values that indicate which deployment the agent is currently working on, ID of current deployment, and acknowledgment of any retry request sent from service to agent. Note that the workflow ID reports a "nodeployment" value once the deployment is cancelled. "workflow": {"action": 3,"ID": "11b6a7c3-6956-4b33-b5a9-87fdd79d2f01","retryTimestamp": "2022-01-26T11:33:29.9680598Z"}
installedUpdateId string device to cloud An ID of the update that is currently installed (through Device Update). This value is a string capturing the Update ID JSON or null for a device that has never taken an update through Device Update. installedUpdateID{"provider":"contoso","name":"image-update","version":"1.0.0"}"

Device properties

The deviceProperties field contains the manufacturer and model information for a device.

Name Schema Direction Description
manufacturer string device to cloud The device manufacturer of the device, reported through deviceProperties. This property is read from one of two places - first, the DeviceUpdateCore interface attempts to read the 'aduc_manufacturer' value from the Configuration file. If the value isn't populated in the configuration file, it defaults to reporting the compile-time definition for ADUC_DEVICEPROPERTIES_MANUFACTURER. This property is reported only at boot time.

Default value: 'Contoso'.
model string device to cloud The device model of the device, reported through deviceProperties. This property is read from one of two places - first, the DeviceUpdateCore interface attempts to read the 'aduc_model' value from the Configuration file. If the value isn't populated in the configuration file, it defaults to reporting the compile-time definition for ADUC_DEVICEPROPERTIES_MODEL. This property is reported only at boot time.

Default value: 'Video'
contractModelId string device to cloud This property is used by the service to identify the base model version being used by the Device Update agent to manage and communicate with the agent.
Value: 'dtmi:azure:iot:deviceUpdateContractModel;3' for devices using DU agent version 1.1.0.
Note: Agents using the 'dtmi:azure:iot:deviceUpdateModel;2' must report the contractModelId as 'dtmi:azure:iot:deviceUpdateContractModel;3' as deviceUpdateModel;3 is extended from deviceUpdateContractModel;3
aduVer string device to cloud Version of the Device Update agent running on the device. This value is read from the build only if ENABLE_ADU_TELEMETRY_REPORTING is set to 1 (true) during compile time. Customers can choose to opt out of version reporting by setting the value to 0 (false). How to customize Device Update agent properties.
doVer string device to cloud Version of the Delivery Optimization agent running on the device. The value is read from the build only if ENABLE_ADU_TELEMETRY_REPORTING is set to 1 (true) during compile time. Customers can choose to opt out of the version reporting by setting the value to 0 (false). How to customize Delivery Optimization agent properties.
Custom compatibility Properties User Defined device to cloud Implementer can define other device properties to be used for the compatibility check while targeting the update deployment.

                },

Note

The device or module must add the {"__t": "c"} marker to indicate that the element refers to a component. For more information, see IoT Plug and Play conventions.

State

The State field is the status reported by the Device Update (DU) agent after receiving an action from the Device Update service. State is reported in response to an Action (see Action section for details) sent to the Device Update agent from the Device Update service. For more information about requests that flow between the Device Update service and the Device Update agent, see the overview workflow.

Name Value Description
Idle 0 The device is ready to receive an action from the Device Update service. After a successful update, state is returned to the Idle state.
DeploymentInprogress 6 A deployment is in progress.
Failed 255 A failure occurred during updating.
DownloadSucceeded 2 A successful download. This status is only reported by devices with agent version 0.7.0 or older.
InstallSucceeded 4 A successful install. This status is only reported by devices with agent version 0.7.0 or older.

Service metadata

Service metadata contains fields that the Device Update services uses to communicate actions and data to the Device Update agent.

Name Schema Direction Description
action integer cloud to device An integer that corresponds to an action the agent should perform. See Action section for details.
updateManifest string cloud to device Used to describe the content of an update. Generated from the Import manifest.
updateManifestSignature JSON Object cloud to device A JSON Web Signature (JWS) with JSON Web Keys used for source verification.
fileUrls Map cloud to device Map of FileID to DownloadUrl. Tells the agent which files to download and the hash to use to verify that the files were downloaded correctly.

Action

The action field represents the actions taken by the Device Update agent as instructed by the Device Update service. The Device Update agent will report a state for processing the action received. For more information about requests that flow between the Device Update service and the Device Update agent, see the overview workflow.

Name Value Description
applyDeployment 3 Apply the update. It signals to the device to apply the deployed update
cancel 255 Stop processing the current action and go back to Idle, or tell an agent in the Failed state to go back to Idle.
download 0 Download published content or update and any other content needed. This action is only sent to devices with agent version 0.7.0 or older.
install 1 Install the content or update. Typically this action means to call the installer for the content or update. This action is only sent to devices with agent version 0.7.0 or older.
apply 2 Finalize the update. It signals the system to reboot if necessary. This action is only sent to devices with agent version 0.7.0 or older.

Device information interface

The device information interface is a concept used within IoT Plug and Play architecture. It contains device-to-cloud properties that provide information about the hardware and operating system of the device. Device Update for IoT Hub uses the DeviceInformation.manufacturer and DeviceInformation.model properties for telemetry and diagnostics. To learn more, see this example of the device information interface.

The expected component name in your model is deviceInformation when this interface is implemented. Learn about Azure IoT Plug and Play Components
