This article applies to both Zipkey and IoT Network Intelligence (INI) products.
Before devices are ready to be used in the field, they must be registered with the Cirrent service, and be provisioned with credentials to connect to the Cirrent service. Those credentials should be stored within the device during the manufacturing process.
Prerequisites:
You will need an account on Cirrent console
Method 1: Using Cirrent Console
Step 1: Define your Device Type in the Manage Device Types page.
Step 2: Define Device Credentials are in the form of Device ID and Secret as described here.
Step 3: There are two ways to register your devices using Console:
a. During prototyping phase, you can register Devices individually here
b. During manufacturing phase, you can bulk upload a set of devices using the "Bulk Upload" link on the top right corner of this page. The format for the bulk upload file is a CSV file of device IDs and device secrets (newlines are ignored):
device1, secretfordevice1, device2, secretfordevice2, device3, secretfordevice3,
device4, secretfordevice4, device5, secretfordevice5
Method 2: Using Cirrent Operations API
You can also register devices by using Operations API during manufacturing process to programmatically register your devices.
Step 1: Define Device Type using POST /devicetypes and passing JSON payload as shown in Operations API
Step 2: Define Device Credentials are in the form of Device ID and Secret as described here.
Step 3: Get Device Type ID using GET /devicetypes
Step 4: Register a set of Devices using PUT /devicetypes/{device_type_id}/device_ids and passing JSON payload as shown in Operations API
Step 4: Check the results showing new devices in the Cirrent Console
