Authenticate a Thing After Manual Registration

This example authenticates a Thing and requests an access token for the Thing. The Thing must have an asymmetric key pair for signing. This is provided in the /path/to/iot-edge/examples/resources directory. The source code for this example is in /path/to/iot-edge/examples/thing/simple/main.go.

This sequence diagram shows how the Thing is authenticated for the session:

Before you run the example, register the Thing manually (using manual-thing as the Thing's ID). Then, run the thing/simple example:

cd /path/to/iot-edge
./run.sh example "thing/simple" \
-name "manual-thing" \
-url "http://am.localtest.me:8080/openam" \
-audience "/" \
-realm "/" \
-tree "auth-tree" \
-keyfile "./examples/resources/eckey1.key.pem"
