Provision custom nRF9160 based device to nRF Cloud

[sbarnowski]

We have a custom device using the nRF9160. Is there a way to add this device to nRF Cloud? The device is running a derivation of the Asset Tracker v2 FW from SDK v2.5.0. We need a way to provision 100s of devices to join nRF cloud.

Thanks

Hello Sebastian, have you seen the nRF Cloud documentation and how to get started? Here you will find instructions on how to provision devices to nRF Cloud. Under Device Management in nRF Cloud there is a link to Device Management overview where the Fleet Management will provide information on how to onboard. 

Let me know how that works for you. 

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Hi Øyvind - thanks for pointing out the documentation.

I was successful in creating the certificates and uploading them to my device:

The provisioned device shows up in nRF Cloud 



And it appears that the certificates were successfully uploaded to the modem (over the AT client interface)




I then built the project with these project config settings:



But I cannot seem to get it to connect to the cloud. I am testing this with a Thingy91. The FW is based on Asset Tracker v2.0 using v2.5.0 of the SDK.

Any thoughts on what I am missing?

Nevermind - just needed to add the '-' to the name:



Working beautifully now - thanks.
