Device Action: Reregister
When devices with MQTT or HTTPS connectivity are added to the application, they are also registered, generating a set of credentials. These credentials are used to connect the real-world devices with the Zoho IoT application.
A device can be reregistered to update its security credentials or authentication type, particularly if there's concern that the credentials have been compromised. This process generates new credentials that must be applied to the physical device for enhanced security.
Note: Reregister option is supported only for MQTT and HTTPS devices.
All Device operations require necessary permissions. Refer User Profiles document for more details.To reregister a device,
- Access the End Application.
- Select Devices > Devices in the left pane.
- Click on the name of the Device you want to be the connected gateway. This opens the Device's information page. For this illustration, we will use the device: My RPi.
- Click on Actions.
- Select Reregister from the drop-down list.
- Select the required Authentication type (available for MQTT devices) and click Reregister.
