Importing a Product Model

If you have a complete product model (developed offline or exported from other projects or platforms) or use an Excel file to develop a product model, you can import the product model to the platform.

The product model imported from the local host does not contain a codec. If the device reports binary code, go to the IoTDA console to develop or import a codec.
