Sample Code for NFC WiFi Provisioning with nRF7002

Hello Nordic Support Team,

I'm working with the Android-nRF-Wi-Fi-Provisioner library (https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/Android-nRF-Wi-Fi-Provisioner)
and would like to implement NFC-based WiFi provisioning for nRF7002 devices.

I noticed in the README that:

  • The library includes a provisioning-nfc module
  • NFC provisioning is mentioned as one of three supported transport methods
  • However, it states that "Provisioning over NFC is not a part of the current nRF Connect SDK release 2.7.0"

My questions are:

  1. What sample firmware/application should I use on the nRF7002 device to enable NFC WiFi provisioning?
  2. Which version of the nRF Connect SDK includes NFC provisioning support?

I'm specifically looking for a working reference implementation to understand how to set up NFC WiFi pairing end-to-end.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,
Kittitouch

  • Hi

    We do not have specific support for NFC Wi-Fi provisioning in the nRF Connect SDK as of yet (v3.1.1) I'm afraid. But it should be possible to implement this on your end, as the provisioning process is protocol agnostic. If the NFC tag is configured correctly on the nRF side, the phone should be able to provision it.

    Thus, we don't have any sample projects or code snippets showcasing this from an nRF Connect SDK side, and you're expected to implement this yourself if needed. Let me know if you run into any specific technical issues/questions in the process and we'll do our best to help.

    Best regards,

    Simon
