Export the edge modules' configuration on a single edge device.

 Extension GA
az iot edge set-modules

Set edge modules on a single device.

 Extension GA

az iot edge export-modules

Export the edge modules' configuration on a single edge device.

The module twin configuration output can be directly used as the --content of "az iot edge set-modules".

az iot edge export-modules --device-id
                           [--auth-type {key, login}]
                           [--hub-name]
                           [--login]
                           [--resource-group]

Examples

Export module twin configuration on a target device.

az iot edge export-modules --hub-name {iothub_name} --device-id {device_id}

Required Parameters

--device-id -d

Target Device Id.

Optional Parameters

--auth-type

Indicates whether the operation should auto-derive a policy key or use the current Azure AD session. If the authentication type is login and the resource hostname is provided, resource lookup will be skipped unless needed.You can configure the default using az configure --defaults iothub-data-auth-type=<auth-type-value>.

accepted values: key, login
default value: key
--hub-name -n

IoT Hub name or hostname. Required if --login is not provided.

--login -l

This command supports an entity connection string with rights to perform action. Use to avoid session login via "az login". If both an entity connection string and name are provided the connection string takes priority. Required if --hub-name is not provided.

--resource-group -g

Name of resource group. You can configure the default group using az configure --defaults group=<name>.

Global Parameters
--debug

Increase logging verbosity to show all debug logs.

--help -h

Show this help message and exit.

--only-show-errors

Only show errors, suppressing warnings.

--output -o

Output format.

accepted values: json, jsonc, none, table, tsv, yaml, yamlc
default value: json
--query

JMESPath query string. See http://jmespath.org/ for more information and examples.

--subscription

Name or ID of subscription. You can configure the default subscription using az account set -s NAME_OR_ID.

--verbose

Increase logging verbosity. Use --debug for full debug logs.

az iot edge set-modules

Set edge modules on a single device.

Modules content is json and in the form of {"modulesContent":{...}} or {"content":{"modulesContent":{...}}}.

By default properties of system modules $edgeAgent and $edgeHub are validated against schemas installed with the IoT extension. This can be disabled by using the --no-validation switch.

Note: Upon execution the command will output the collection of modules applied to the device.

az iot edge set-modules --content
                        --device-id
                        [--auth-type {key, login}]
                        [--hub-name]
                        [--login]
                        [--resource-group]

Examples

Test edge modules while in development by setting modules on a target device.

az iot edge set-modules --hub-name {iothub_name} --device-id {device_id} --content ../modules_content.json

Required Parameters

--content -k

IoT Edge deployment content. Provide file path or raw json.

--device-id -d

Target Device Id.

Optional Parameters

--auth-type

Indicates whether the operation should auto-derive a policy key or use the current Azure AD session. If the authentication type is login and the resource hostname is provided, resource lookup will be skipped unless needed.You can configure the default using az configure --defaults iothub-data-auth-type=<auth-type-value>.

accepted values: key, login
default value: key
--hub-name -n
