Pushing a Device Event Notification

Typical Scenario

After an application subscribes to device event notifications (the notification type is deviceEvent) on the platform, the platform sends a notification to the application when the platform receives the event message reported by the device.

API Function

This API is used by the platform to push notifications to an application that has subscribed to device event notifications.

Note

  1. When Subscribing to Device Service Data, an application must subscribe to the specified callback URL in the API description. The server and port in the callback URL are the public IP address and specified port of the application server.
  2. An application receives the content of a push message by inheriting the PushMessageReceiver class and overriding the callback API.
  3. If the callback URL is not the address of the application server, the application must implement the original callback API. For details on the API content, see Message Push in the Northbound API Reference.
