Example – Attribute Notification


This is an example of how a device attribute of type JSON  will be delivered as a notification.


  • Assume the device wants to send the following temperature setting as a JSON attribute:


Temperature Attribute
{
"temperature" : 72,
"units" : "F"
}


  • Create the Attribute in the Product with a JSON attribute with name Temperature.
  • Configure the notification template per Step 1:
    • Select Attribute Output
    • Give it a name: TemperatureOutput
    • Associate it with the Temperature attribute.



  • Create the Preference and Subscribe per Steps 2 and 3:
  • Now assume the device will send the JSON for Temperature


Temperature Attribute Send
{
"temperature" : 72,
"units" : "F"
}
