The following information will help you to locate App IDs and Device Profile IDs such as needed during the registration of devices into our IoT Console.
The LNS includes multiple Organizations and applications/environments. For example, in our mydevices-live Organization we have the core IoT in a Box Staging and Production environments.
We also have the ability to provide similar sandboxed environments to specific entities such as external Manufacturers. So the first step in finding the correct Application ID or Device Profile ID you may be looking for is to make sure you have the correct Organization selected in the dropdown.
Application ID
After selecting the Organization, you can select the Application option and a list of all the applications/environments will be displayed. The Application ID is the number shown in the ID column.
So for example, the core IoT in a Box App ID is 5. For most of us, this is the App ID you need to remember.
Tip: Our IoT in a Box applications are already set up to forward data from one environment to another. So you can use ID 5 and it will forward data into the Dev & Staging environments automatically - no need for you to add your devices to Staging specifically.
Device Profile IDs
After selecting the Organization, you can select the Device-profiles option and a list of all the device profiles will be displayed. Select the appropriate model profile to view its information. The Device Profile ID is included in the URL of this page when opened.
So for example, here is a screenshot of the Console showing adding this Dragino IO Controller to the IoT in a Box live environment:
