Configuring service key in AWS asset tracker deployment

[MostlyHardware]

Hi,

I have successfully followed the guide for setting up the AWS asset tracker application (https://nordicsemiconductor.github.io/asset-tracker-cloud-docs/v2.1.x/docs/aws/GettingStarted/Index.html). It all seems to work fine - my nrf9160 appears as a device and is being updated as it should.

I now want to pipe A-GPS requests from the device through AWS to nRFcloud. I'm stuck at step 1 in this guide (https://nordicsemiconductor.github.io/asset-tracker-cloud-docs/v2.1.x/docs/aws/nRFCloudLocationServices.html#aws-nrf-cloud-location-services).

"1. Configure your service key."

Since I'm on a developer plan in nRFcloud I don't have a service key, only a JSON Web Token which I have on evaluation until end of December. The JWT has been verified working using a curl request towards nrfcloud, but I can't seem to configure my AWS instance in the correct way.

Many thanks!

Hi,

It is possible, but I cannot remember if it is mandatory to fill in company information. You can just fill in freelancer if it is required.

Let me know if you have any trouble getting the Pro plan. Good luck!

Best regards,

Hello,

I've upgraded to the pro plan now and generated an A-GPS service key, however I'm a bit unsure about the first step "Configure your service key.". Should that file contain all of this:
-----BEGIN EC PARAMETERS-----
xxx
-----END EC PARAMETERS-----
-----BEGIN EC PRIVATE KEY-----
xxx
-----END EC PRIVATE KEY-----

Or only:

-----BEGIN EC PRIVATE KEY-----
xxx
-----END EC PRIVATE KEY-----

Thanks!

Hi,

It is in PEM format like the following file.
