Michal's response is correct, that endpoint will update the device shadow.

When the device connects, it will receive the updated "desired" config section.
Currently, the nrf_cloud fw library will clear the device "desired" config after it is received. You may not want this to occur, depending on your situation. See this draft PR for removing "config" processing from the nrf_cloud library.

The device can use nrf_cloud_send() to update the "reported" section of the shadow with its current configuration. The topic_type parameter should be set to NRF_CLOUD_TOPIC_STATE.
If you just want to clear out the old asset tracker "config", you can do so by setting it to null:

{
  "state": {
    "reported": {
      "config": null
    }
  }
}

Hello Torje,

You can try to use this endpoint and wrap the "config" object in the "desired" object.

Best regards,

Michal
