Creating a Connection With UI

Creating a Connection With API

To do this, you need to use the Connections group resource:

• POST/connections to create a new Connection instance
• PUT/connections to update a Connection instance
• DELETE/connections to delete a Connection instance

Note

We follow the REST-full API pattern, when updating configuration properties for a connection resource. Thus, you must also provide the whole configuration again.

Example for creation of a new connection instance :

POST /connections
{
   "connectorId": "actility-arduino-pro-iot",
   "name": "Test Arduino Pro Connection",
   "configuration": {
      "clientId": "IFPrc7dBqdhf5M1fk7rtNT8zWpqahygh",
      "clientSecret":"uXk9HDkUctqqZ8VFxG3g4LPtCpoCM5vHkyy5Dvm3Md7BSfpeSRflMqFR2hmpBHPs"
   }
}

The following table lists the properties applicable to a connection instance.

Property	Expected results
connectorId	Must be set to actility-arduino-pro-iot.
configuration/clientId	The Client ID of the Arduino Cloud API Key that you have created.
configuration/clientSecret	The Client Secret of the Arduino Cloud API Key that you have created.

Important note

All properties are not present in this example. You can check the rest of these properties in the common parameters section.
