Firmware updates via HTTP
-
At the moment, we do firmware updates via HTTP and this is actually a very important feature for our devices.
Of course, we cannot connect to our web server via HTTP to simply ‘download a file’.
How do others solve this? Is there a provision for this in the iotcreators platform?

Hi,
currently the customers split up firmware images into chunks of eg. 512 byte and push them to the device via downlink API requests (https://docs.iotcreators.com/reference/using-the-cdp-api).
We are currently working on a better support for FOTA in our IoT Creators portal. The portal will provide a capability to upload to and manage files in the device-download-space. From there the devices are able to download the files via e.g. HTTP or CoAP.

@Roalnd-Baldin Is there any ETA on this feature or can it get more priority somehow?

Hi Rik,
can we have a conf-call about this topic. We are currently making customer interviews to understand your requirements better.
Yes, we can raise priority for this topic :)
I will send you and email to schedule a conf-call.
Regards, Roland
