nRF Cloud Provisioning Service

[Bard]

Hi 

I'm trying to use the nRF Cloud Provisioning Service with the nRF Cloud multi-service sample in SDK 2.6 on a nRF9151DK.

I have got the token from the device using AT%ATTESTTOKEN and claimed the device in nRF Cloud

Then I compiled the sample with 

-DEXTRA_CONF_FILE="overlay-http_nrf_provisioning.conf"

But the provisioning is not ok...What am I missing?

Did you create a provisioning configuration as detailed in Step 4 of the Process section?

From the log, it looks like the provisioning firmware connected but had no steps to provision.

[Bard]

Could you list the minimum required commands to add to a rule in order to provision a device? I don't know what is needed. How to install CA Certificate?

[00:00:02.480,010] <err> nrf_cloud_credentials: CA Certificate not found in sec tag 16842753
[00:00:02.480,041] <wrn> cloud_connection: nRF Cloud credentials are not installed. Claim and onboard device on nrfcloud.com to continue.

I have claimed the device using token.

[Mariano Goluboff]

When you claim the device, there is a button to "Create new rule for onboarding to nRF Cloud". You can use that to create a provisioning rule that does the defaults.

What it creates is two requests:

- Cloud Access Key Generation

- Server Certificate

If you didn't do that when claiming the device, you can create the provisioning rule in Security Services->Provisioning Rules. Add the commands above, then assign it to a group of claimed devices.

See more information on that here:

docs.nordicsemi.com/.../GettingStarted.html

Hi

When I try to do the above, this dialog appears:

What to write in the Content field?

[Bard]

I unclaimed the device and entered the commands above when reclaiming. Now it works :-) BUT I still get these messages every minute:

How to complete provisioning? (not active/idle)

[Mariano Goluboff]

I see below that you have it working. But for anybody else reading this thread, what you need there is the AWS CA certificate. That gets auto-populated when using the "Create new rule for onboarding to nRF Cloud" button.
