Asset Management Client for Python¶

Introduction¶

The Asset Management Service is used to interact with the digital representation of a machine or automation system. Refer to Asset Management for more information about the service.

Further implementation of the IOT AssetManagement SDK library has been shown in a sample project that you can download and test in local or on Insights Hub application. Please refer to this repository: industrial-iot-python-sdk-examples

Aspect Type Operations¶

The aspect type client manages static and dynamic aspect types. It lists, creates, updates, reads, and deletes aspect types.

Client name: AspecttypeClient

List all Aspect Types¶

Get all aspect types of the tenant.

Asset Operations¶

The asset client manages a user's assets and their locations. Three different types of assets can be created: device types, agent types and hierarchy types. The asset client lists, creates, updates, reads, deletes, moves and replaces assets. It can also be used to add and delete file assignments to assets.
