Querying Information About a Device

Typical Scenario

If an NA needs to view detailed information (such as the manufacturer, model, version, status, and service attributes) of a device that has been registered with the IoT platform, the NA can call this API to obtain the information.

API Function

This API is used by an NA to query detailed information of a specified device based on the device ID on the IoT platform, such as configuration, status and service attributes.

API Description

1	def querySingleDeviceInfo(self, deviceId, select, appId, accessToken)

Parameter Description

Parameter	Mandatory or Optional	Type	Location	Description
deviceId	Mandatory	String	path	Identifies a device. The device ID is allocated by the IoT platform during device registration.
select	Optional	String	query	Indicates the query condition. The value can be IMSI.
appId	Optional	String	query	If the device belongs to the current application, set this parameter to None. Otherwise, set this parameter to the ID of the authorized application.
accessToken	Mandatory	String	header	This parameter is set to the value of the access token obtained by calling the Authentication API.

Error Codes

HTTP Status Code	Error Codes	Error Description	Remarks
400	100405	The request parameter is invalid.	The request message contains invalid parameters. Recommended handling: Check whether parameters in the API request are correct by referring to the request parameter description.
403	100203	The application is not existed.	The application does not exist. Recommended handling: Check whether appId carried in the HTTP request header is correct. Check whether appId in the request path (URL) is correct.
