Hello,
I'm trying to follow the steps on the beta testing documentation, but, after having got access to q.bo one via VNC (it worked out, I suggest to generate the QR code with at least a 8 inches display ;-) I'm a bi tlost in following the steps in Google Cloud Platform. Is it maybe related to an older version? I have already some project (I tried DiagFlow before), I created a pretty new one for the test but I don't find how to register a device... even the online help is working so fine...
Do you have any hint?
Hi Giancarlo,
Please follow this steps:
Use the registration UI
Use the registration UI in the Actions Console to register a device model.
-
Open the Actions Console. You may already have this tab open from the previous step.
-
Select the Device registration tab (under ADVANCED OPTIONS) from the left navbar for your project.
-
Click the REGISTER MODEL button.
Create model
-
Fill out all of the fields for your device. Select any device type, such as Light.
-
When you are finished, click REGISTER MODEL.
to finish
Download credentials file
Make sure this file is located in /home/pi
. If you want to upload the file to the device, do the following:
-
Open a new terminal window. Run the following command in this new terminal:
scp ~/Downloads/credentials.json pi@raspberry-pi-ip-address:/home/pi/
password: password-for-device
-
Close this terminal window.
