Azure Iot Hub Transmit

An azure iot hub transmit

Example:

If we want to upload our records from the bathhouse:water stream to our IOT cloud, going through an IoT (non-edge) HuB endpoint, the config will look like this:

{
    "data_transmit": [
        {
            "transmit_name": "iot_hub_transmit",
            "transmit_type" : "iothub",
            "filter_stream": [
                "bathhouse:water"
            ],
            "connection_string": "HostName=...;SharedAccessKeyName=...;SharedAccessKey=..."
        }
    ]
}

Configuration:

Required and optional properties that can be configured for the transmit.

• connection_string: A string that provides all the connection info. (Can be found in “Devices” -> “<Actual Device Name>” -> “Primary connection string” in the relevant iot hub page)
