az iot hub device-identity children add

Add devices as children to a target edge device.

az iot hub device-identity children add --child-list
                                        --device-id
                                        [--auth-type {key, login}]
                                        [--force]
                                        [--hub-name]
                                        [--login]
                                        [--resource-group]

Examples

Add a space-separated list of device Ids as children to the target edge device.

az iot hub device-identity children add -d {edge_device_id} --child-list {child_device_id_1} {child_device_id_2} -n {iothub_name}

Add devices as children to the edge device and overwrite the children devices' existing parent.

az iot hub device-identity children add -d {edge_device_id} --child-list {child_device_id_1} {child_device_id_2} -n {iothub_name} -f

Required Parameters

--child-list --cl

Child device list (space separated).

--device-id -d

Id of edge device.

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

--force -f

Overwrites the child device's parent device.

Default value: False

--hub-name -n

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

--login -l

This command supports an entity connection string with rights to perform action. Use to avoid session login via "az login". If both an entity connection string and name are provided the connection string takes priority. Required if --hub-name is not provided.

--resource-group -g

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

Global Parameters

--debug

Increase logging verbosity to show all debug logs.

--help -h

Show this help message and exit.

--only-show-errors

Only show errors, suppressing warnings.

--output -o

Output format.

Accepted values: json, jsonc, none, table, tsv, yaml, yamlc

Default value: json

--query

JMESPath query string. See http://jmespath.org/ for more information and examples.

--subscription

Name or ID of subscription. You can configure the default subscription using az account set -s NAME_OR_ID.

--verbose

Increase logging verbosity. Use --debug for full debug logs.

az iot hub device-identity children list

Outputs the collection of assigned child devices.

az iot hub device-identity children list --device-id
                                         [--auth-type {key, login}]
                                         [--hub-name]
                                         [--login]
                                         [--resource-group]

Examples

List all assigned children devices.

az iot hub device-identity children list -d {edge_device_id} -n {iothub_name}

List all assigned children devices whose device Id contains a substring of 'test'.
