Import an update to Device Update for IoT Hub

Learn how to obtain a new update and import it into Device Update for IoT Hub. If you haven't already, be sure to review the key import concepts and how to prepare an update to be imported.

Prerequisites

Supported browsers:

Import an update

This section shows how to import an update using either the Azure portal or the Azure CLI. You can also use the Device Update for IoT Hub APIs to import an update instead.

To import an update, you first upload the update files and import manifest into an Azure Storage container. Then, you import the update from Azure Storage into Device Update for IoT Hub, where it will be stored for you to deploy to devices.

  1. In the Azure portal, navigate to your IoT Hub with Device Update.

  2. On the left-hand side of the page, select Updates under Device Management.

    Import Updates

  3. Select the Updates tab from the list of tabs across the top of the screen.

    Updates

  4. Select + Import a new update below the Available Updates header.

    Import New Update

  5. Select + Select from storage container. The Storage accounts UI is shown. Select an existing account, or create an account using + Storage account. This account is used for a container to stage your updates for import. The account should not have both public and private endpoints enabled at the same time.

    Select Update Files

  6. Once you've selected a Storage account, the Containers UI is shown. Select an existing container, or create a container using + Container. This container is used to stage your update files for importing

    We recommend that you use a new container each time you import an update. Always using new containers helps you to avoid accidentally importing files from previous updates. If you don't use a new container, be sure to delete any files from the existing container before you complete this step.

    Storage Account

  7. In your container, select Upload. The Upload UI is shown.

    Select Container

  8. Select the folder icon on the right side of the Files section under the Upload blob header. Use the file picker to navigate to the location of your update files and import manifest, select all of the files, then select Open. You can hold the Shift key and click to multi-select files.

    Publish Update

  9. When you've selected all your update files, select Upload.

    Container Upload

  10. Select the uploaded files to designate them to be imported. Then select the Select button to return to the Import update page.

    Select Uploaded Files

  11. On the Import update page, review the files to be imported. Then select Import update to start the import process. To resolve any errors, see Proxy update troubleshooting.

    Import Start

  12. The import process begins, and the screen switches to the Import History section. Select Refresh to view progress until the import process completes (depending on the size of the update, the process might complete in a few minutes but could take longer).

    Update Import Sequencing

  13. When the Status column indicates that the import has succeeded, select the Available Updates header. You should see your imported update in the list now.

If you're importing using APIs instead

You can also import an update programmatically by:

Note

Refer to Device update user roles and access for required API permission.

Update files and import manifest must be uploaded to an Azure Storage Blob container for staging. To import the staged files, provide the blob URL, or shared access signature (SAS) for private blobs, to the Device Update API. If using a SAS, be sure to provide an expiration window of three hours or more

Tip

To upload large update files to Azure Storage Blob container, you may use one of the following for better performance:
