Bind a Device Policy

Function

This API is used by an application to bind a policy to devices in batches on the IoT platform. Currently, the target type can be device or product. When the target type is product, the policy takes effect on all devices under the product.

Debugging

You can debug this API through automatic authentication in API Explorer or use the SDK sample code generated by API Explorer.
