Quickstart samples

The following quickstart samples deploy this resource type.

Bicep File Description
Create an IoT Hub and a Device to Cloud Consumer Group This template enables you to deploy an IoT Hub instance with device to cloud and cloud to device messaging configurations and a device to cloud consumer group.
Create an IoT Hub Device Provisioning Service This template enables you to create an IoT hub and an IoT Hub Device Provisioning Service, and link the two services together.
Create Device Update for IoT Hub account, instance, IoT Hub This template creates an account, and an instance and a hub to link the instance with. It configures the hub with the necessary access polices, routes, and consumer group.
Deploy the MedTech service including an Azure IoT Hub The MedTech service is one of the Azure Health Data Services designed to ingest device data from multiple devices, transform the device data into FHIR Observations, which are then persisted in the Azure Health Data Services FHIR service.
Use ARM template to create IoT Hub, route and view messages Use this template to deploy an IoT Hub and a storage account. Run an app to send messages to the hub that are routed to storage, then view the results.
