az iot hub configuration create

Create an IoT automatic device management configuration in a target IoT Hub.

Configuration content is json and slighty varies based on device or module intent.

Device configurations are in the form of {"deviceContent":{...}} or {"content":{"deviceContent":{...}}}

Module configurations are in the form of {"moduleContent":{...}} or {"content":{"moduleContent":{...}}}

Configurations can be defined with user provided metrics for on demand evaluation. User metrics are json and in the form of {"queries":{...}} or {"metrics":{"queries":{...}}}.

Note: Target condition for modules must start with "from devices.modules where".

az iot hub configuration create --config-id
                                --content
                                [--auth-type {key, login}]
                                [--cl]
                                [--cmq]
                                [--hub-name]
                                [--lab]
                                [--login]
                                [--metrics]
                                [--pri]
                                [--resource-group]
                                [--target-condition]

Examples

Create a device configuration with a priority of 3 that applies on condition when a device is tagged in building 9 and the environment is 'test'.

az iot hub configuration create -c {config_name} -n {iothub_name} --content device_content.json --target-condition "tags.building=9 and tags.environment='test'" --priority 3

Create a device configuration with labels and provide user metrics inline (bash syntax example).

az iot hub configuration create -c {config_name} -n {iothub_name} --content device_content.json --target-condition "tags.building=9" --labels '{"key0":"value0", "key1":"value1"}' --priority 10 --metrics '{"metrics": {"queries": {"mymetric": "select deviceId from devices where tags.location='US'"}}}'

Create a module configuration with labels and provide user metrics inline (cmd syntax example)

az iot hub configuration create -c {config_name} -n {iothub_name} --content module_content.json --target-condition "from devices.modules where tags.building=9" --labels "{\"key0\":\"value0\", \"key1\":\"value1\"}" --metrics "{\"metrics\": {\"queries\": {\"mymetric\": \"select moduleId from devices.modules where tags.location='US'\"}}}"

Create a module configuration with content and user metrics inline (powershell syntax example).

az iot hub configuration create -c {config_name} -n {iothub_name} --content '{\"moduleContent\": {\"properties.desired.chillerWaterSettings\": {\"temperature\": 38, \"pressure\": 78}}}' --target-condition "from devices.modules where tags.building=9" --priority 1 --metrics '{\"metrics\": {\"queries\": {\"mymetric\":\"select moduleId from devices.modules where tags.location=''US''\"}}}'

Create a device configuration with an alternative input style of labels and metrics (shell agnostic).

az iot hub configuration create -c {config_name} -n {iothub_name} --content device_content.json --target-condition "from devices.modules where tags.building=9" --custom-labels key0="value0" key1="value1" --priority 10 --custom-metric-queries mymetric1="select deviceId from devices where tags.location='US'" mymetric2="select *"

Required Parameters

--config-id -c

Target device configuration name. Lowercase and the following special characters are allowed: [-+%_*!'].

--content -k

Device configuration content. Provide file path or raw json.

Optional Parameters

--auth-type

Indicates whether the operation should auto-derive a policy key or use the current Azure AD session. If the authentication type is login and the resource hostname is provided, resource lookup will be skipped unless needed.You can configure the default using az configure --defaults iothub-data-auth-type={auth-type-value}.

Accepted values: key, login
Default value: key
--cl --custom-labels

An alternative input style (space separated key=value pairs) for --labels and intended to replace it in the future. Format example: key1=value1 key2="this is my value".

--cmq --custom-metric-queries

An alternative input style (space separated key=value pairs) for --metrics and intended to replace it in the future. Format example: metric1="select deviceId from devices where tags.location='US'" metric2="select *".

--hub-name -n

IoT Hub name or hostname. Required if --login is not provided.

--lab --labels

Map of labels to be applied to target configuration. Using --custom-labels instead of --labels is recommended.Format example: {"key0":"value0", "key1":"value1"}.

Default value: 0
--resource-group -g

Name of resource group. You can configure the default group using az configure --defaults group=<name>.
