AWS API Changes

2022/01/03 - AWS IoT Greengrass V2 - 5 new api methods

Changes This release adds the API operations to manage the Greengrass role associated with your account and to manage the core device connectivity information. Greengrass V2 customers can now depend solely on Greengrass V2 SDK for all the API operations needed to manage their fleets.

GetServiceRoleForAccount (new)

Link ¶

Gets the service role associated with IoT Greengrass for your Amazon Web Services account in this Amazon Web Services Region. IoT Greengrass uses this role to verify the identity of client devices and manage core device connectivity information. For more information, see Greengrass service role in the IoT Greengrass Version 2 Developer Guide .

rtype

dict

returns

Response Syntax

{
    'associatedAt': 'string',
    'roleArn': 'string'
}

Response Structure

(dict) --
- associatedAt (string) --
  
  The time when the service role was associated with IoT Greengrass for your Amazon Web Services account in this Amazon Web Services Region.
- roleArn (string) --
  
  The ARN of the service role that is associated with IoT Greengrass for your Amazon Web Services account in this Amazon Web Services Region.

DisassociateServiceRoleFromAccount (new)

Link ¶

Disassociates the Greengrass service role from IoT Greengrass for your Amazon Web Services account in this Amazon Web Services Region. Without a service role, IoT Greengrass can't verify the identity of client devices or manage core device connectivity information. For more information, see Greengrass service role in the IoT Greengrass Version 2 Developer Guide .

UpdateConnectivityInfo (new)

Link ¶

Updates connectivity information for a Greengrass core device.

Connectivity information includes endpoints and ports where client devices can connect to an MQTT broker on the core device. When a client device calls the Greengrass discovery API, IoT Greengrass returns connectivity information for all of the core devices where the client device can connect. For more information, see Connect client devices to core devices in the IoT Greengrass Version 2 Developer Guide .
