nrf/sample/net/aws sample question

[dykim]

hello

In the nrf/sample/net/aws_iot example, when updating a shadow topic, use $aws/things/<thing-name>/shadow/update/

Where does "thing-name" refer to?

Regards,

The AWS IOT Client ID should match the 'Thing Name' on the
AWS IoT console. It can be set in the prj.conf using:
CONFIG_AWS_IOT_CLIENT_ID_STATIC="<Thing Name>" or at run time using the aws_iot_config structure passed to aws_iot_connect(); If using this option, set CONFIG_AWS_IOT_CLIENT_ID_APP=y

Setting the Client ID at runtime allows the developer to easly deploy fleets of devices with the same firmware.
In this case we read the modem's IMEI and use this as the Client ID.
