Add Device: As Own Device Product

Add Device: As Own Device Product

Prerequisite

Before proceeding with this document, please ensure you have read the following prerequisite materials to fully understand the concepts discussed here:

Adding a device by defining your own device product

If your device product isn't listed in the device gallery, you can add it to the application manually. Once added, you can associate it with a model and create a device instance based on their combination. For example, an OEM can use this option to list their product in the Zoho IoT application’s product gallery.

AlertAll Device operations require necessary permissions. Refer User Profiles document for more details..

To add a device product and then a device,
  1. Access the End Application.



  2. Select Devices > Devices in the left pane.



  3. Click Add Device.



  4. Choose Add As Own Device Product and click Proceed.



  1. Provide required information in the appropriate fields and click Add. For this illustration, a device product for Arduino is added.



    Notes
    Learn more about each field.
NotesNote: Once you click Add, the device product will be added to the Product Gallery (Device), even if you don't complete the rest of the setup process for adding the device.
  1. Add the required datapoint definitions for your device product by clicking Add Datapoint Definition.



    NotesNote: It is mandatory to add the datapoint definitions at this stage for your product, as you won't be able to add them once the product is associated with a model. However, you can still add datapoint templates to the associated device model later, which will then become part of the device instance.
  2. Click Proceed, after adding the datapoint definitions.
  3. Determine the model you wish to use:
  • If it's your first time accessing the application or you have not added any model in the application, you will only have the Model field. Entering the Model Name will create a new device model with that name.


If you had already added a device model, you will have a toggle option
  • Toggle to Create new model if you wish to associate a new device model with the product. Entering the model name will create a new model with the given name.



  • Toggle to Use Existing Model if you have previously added a model(s) and select the required Model.

      
  1. Provide the necessary details in the required fields. For this illustration, the information provided is for adding an Arduino device using the Arduino device product  and Home Gateway device model combination.



    Notes
    Learn more about each field.

  2. Click Add.



  3. Click Ok in the registration successful dialog box. 



  4. Proceed with the Onboarding Assistant for guided help in onboarding your device.
A new device is added to the application, and the custom device product is included in the product gallery (Device). Now, you can easily add more devices of the same device product using the Add Device using the Product Gallery method.
