    Hi,

    I am trying to send a message to Azure IoT using the Resource.

    From other resources I understand the structure of an Azure payload for the function node should be:-

    {
    “protocol”: “amqp”,
    “deviceId”: “<your device id>”,
    “key”:”<your device key>”,
    “data”:”<your json data>”
    }

    I am not sure where the other entries (the http end point, shared key etc) should go. These are usually handled in the form of a connection string in the Azure nodes. But I am not sure where to put these.

    Any guidance?

    To directly use a connection string, in the msg.payload you can set a connectionString field:
    {
    “protocol”: “amqp”,
    “deviceId”: “your device id”,
    “key”:”your device key”,
    “data”:”your json data”
    “connectionString”:”your connection string”
    }

    Alternatively you can include all this information in a javascript function, for example:

    
var azuremsg = {};
azuremsg.topic = "devices/" + 
    "your device id" + 
    "/messages/events/";
azuremsg.payload = {};
azuremsg.payload.protocol = "amqp";
azuremsg.payload.deviceId = "insert device id";
azuremsg.payload.key = "insert key";
azuremsg.payload.hostname = "insert hostname";
azuremsg.payload.data = "data to send goes here";
return azuremsg;
