ThingWorx Azure IoT Thing Templates
AzureIotHubTemplate Thing Template
The AzureIotHubTemplate Thing Template populates a Thing that represents an Azure IoT Hub with configuration properties, alerts, and services. The Connector uses configuration values provided in the AzureIotHub Thing to connect to the corresponding Azure IoT Hub. This Thing Template implements the AzureHubDataShape, which defines the configuration settings, and the EgressGateway Thing Shape. In addition, to bind the Azure IoT Hub using a routing group, this Thing Template implements the MultiBindRemoteThingShape.
