Step by Step Instructions

In order to use the provisioning mechanism, you need to do the following:

1. Create an App

2. Create an API Client

Create an API Client with App context, and device:read scope to access to the provisioning app

3. Create a custom identifier for your device

4. Link your device to your App

Final step is to link your device to the app that will be used for provisioning purpose.
