Importing Thing definitions

To import Thing definitions, do the following:

  1. On Developer main screen under the THINGS group, click Thing definitions

    The Thing definitions screen appears.
  2. Click Import

    Thing definitions import screen appears
  3. Click Attach file
  4. Browse and select the JSON file you want to import.

    When you import a Thing definition with a same name that is already existing then it will update the existing Thing definition with the new values from the imported JSON file.

  5. Click Import.

When importing a thingDefinition, the elements of the Presentation tab are not included. The Presentation tab will need to be configured manually after the thingDefinition is imported.
