Configure the firmware

To configure the firmware, complete the following mandatory steps:

1. Create the file firmware.conf in the ~/nrf-asset-tracker folder for your configuration overrides.

2. Run the following command to print the MQTT endpoint to which your devices will connect:

   # ~/nrf-asset-tracker/aws
   
   ./cli.sh info -o mqttEndpoint
   

3. Add the CONFIG_AWS_IOT_BROKER_HOST_NAME setting to the firmware.conf file, using the endpoint value from the previous step as the value:

   CONFIG_AWS_IOT_BROKER_HOST_NAME="your MQTT endpoint"

After completing the configuration, compile the firmware either using your own development environment or using Docker and then create the device credentials.

Note

See the documentation on the Asset Tracker v2 application for all available configuration options.
