Setting up IoT integration

To set up IoT integration on the platform, complete the following steps:

1. Create a telemetry collection and configure the _granularity and _expiry timeseries properties for your purpose with one of the following APIs:
   • REST: Create Named Telemetry Collections
   • JavaScript: IafItemSvc.createNamedUserItems()
2. Create telemetry items to represent your device sensors with a source id that refers to your IoT device's unique id with one of the following APIs:
   • REST: Create Telemetry items in a Named Telemetry Collection
   • JavaScript: IafItemSvc.createNamedUserItems()
3. Create a normalization script to normalize the IoT data to Item Service readings. For more information, see Normalization script. To post the script to the platform, use one of the following APIs:
   • REST: Create Scripts
   • JavaScript: IafScripts.create()
4. Create a telemetry config file that defines your bindings. For more information, see Telemetry config. Post your telemetry config file to the Item Service with the Create Telemetry Config REST API.
5. Configure your MQTT gateway to publish data to ActiveMQ. For more information, see ActiveMQ configuration.
