Non-alphanumeric name for template telemetry

Question

Hello,

I am running into an issue where I am unable to display telemetry received in IoT Central because the names of the received variables are non-alphanumeric and they can't be used as template inputs as seen below :

Unfortunately, I am unable to change how the device sends the data and am stuck with those names.

Is there a way to bypass this behavior ? Underscores are accepted but not dots.

Thanks for your understanding

Answer 1

It looks like, your device is not IoT Plug and Play device compatible with a Digital Twins Definition Language (DTDL) version 2, so all non-matched data published by this device to the IoT Central App based on the device template model will be received as _unmodeleddata.

There is no built-in way for mapping a non-IoT PnP device to the IoT Central App driven by device template, so you should consider using the custom gateway (IoT Edge PnP device).

Thanks
