Device Twin Message
To get all whole device twin you need to publish blank message on $iothub/twin/GET/?$rid=0 topic, IoTConnect (iothub) will send whole device twin on $iothub/twin/res/# topic, so you need to subscribe $iothub/twin/res/# topic.
You will receive Twin property in the below JSON format.
{
"desired": {
"frm_version": 1.5
"$version": 48
},
"reported": {
"$version": 44
}
}
desired: Native property of the Twin message
– frm_version: It is the property and value added into the iotconnect portal from “Template -> Twin property”
reported: Native property of the Twin message
$version: Version will be auto increment done by IoTHub for both desired and reported properties.
On change of desired property for the device, a message from IoTConnect (IotHub) will be published and you can receive it on $iothub/twin/PATCH/properties/desired/# topic. So, you need to subscribe to this topic to receive desired property value.
You will receive Twin Desired property in the below JSON format.
{
"frm_version": 1.6,
"$version": 49
}
