Registering Your Device

Your Linux® microPlatform (LmP) image includes the lmp-device-register tool that registers your device via the Foundries.io™ REST API.

1. Run this command from the device console to register it with your Factory:

sudo lmp-device-register -n <device-name>

2. You will be prompted by lmp-device-register to complete a challenge with our API. Follow the instructions on the promped message:

   Example Output:

   Registering device, test, to factory gavin.
   Device UUID: df1295df-ba58-40a0-9239-542ded5ab934

     User code: SQRD-PLBN
     Browser URL: https://app.foundries.io/activate/
   

3. Your device is now registered and should be visible by navigating to the web interface and selecting the Devices tab for your Factory. Or you can check by using Fioctl:

fioctl devices list

Note

By default, after registration devices will run all applications that are available in the latest Target. This behavior can be changed by enabling only specific applications. Read Enabling/Disabling Apps to learn how.
