AZ-220 Certification will be retired by July31!
Hi everyone, I'm writing to ask for your advice. The AZ-220 Azure certification exam is retiring on July 31, 2023. I'm not sure whether I should take the exam before it retires or pursues a different Azure certification. What do you think is the best option? Thanks for your help!The Azure IoT Hub team needs your feedback about the new features in preview
Hi IoT friends The Azure IoT Hub team regularly publishes new features in preview so you get a chance to test them and provide feedback. Here is your opportunity to let them know what you liked, what works/doesn't work for you, what your suggestions are. You can find more information for the preview features here: https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/iot-hub/iot-hub-preview-mode. Your feedback will help the team deliver what you need! The Survey is this way: https://aka.ms/iothubpreviewsurveyHow can I get my hands dirty with Azure IoT?
I've been asked this question many times and I thought it was about time I share the response more broadly. If you are a developer eager to get started and learn about Azure IoT services and solutions, with hands-on content, here are my top recommendations: Visit MS Learn and start playing with the various learning path and modules https://aka.ms/mslearn/iot Go through a nice end to end solution development workshop put together by kartben: http://aka.ms/iot-workshop/asset-tracking You can also follow along the workshop with kartben himself in this video: Check out all the goodness pdecarlo , glovebox and Jim Bennett put together for you at https://julyot.com Check out the labs we put together to help you get ready for the AZ-220 Azure IoT Developer Specialty certification https://github.com/MicrosoftLearning/AZ-220-Microsoft-Azure-IoT-Developer (instructions here: https://aka.ms/az220labs) If you have more good pointers for a first hands-on experience with Azure IoT services and solutions, do not hesitate to share in the comments below!

Thank you for your help!.NET Core Quicksstarts Done quickly with one PowerShell script start to finish.
I have a long time felt that the .NET Core C# Quickstarts for the Azure IoT Hub SDK could be simpler for a newbie. To that end I created the UWP apps Azure IoT Hub Device Streaming and then Azure IoT Hub Toolbox., as available on GitHub and in The Store. These encapsulated the Quickstart functionality and orchestrated IoT Hub creation. This latest salvo into this area can make it even simpler! You run one PowerShell script with which you can create an IoT Hub, get all of the connection strings, save them to environment variables, create PowerShell and Bash scripts to re-set those variables, get the required targeted .NET Core SK binary including expansion of the download amongst other things. Included is a copy of the Quickstarts modified so that all apps get the required connection strings from the environment variables. A couple of variants to the apps have been added. More coming, especially with RPi hardware use. The PowerShell script and its underlying scripts is available on GitHub as Azure IoT Hub PowerShell Scripts . It is a menu driven UI, with a bit of color included!. I have written as series of blogs on .NET Core, especially on the RaspberryPi (IoT-Core and Raspian) and upon running the Quickstarts there via the PowerShell script on my blog at http://www.sportronics.com.au .Here are the specific links: (Note: In reverse order) Remote Publishing to the RPI One more way of doing this - Background Using the PS Script to run Quickstarts on RPi (Raspian) Using the PS Script to run Quickstarts on RPi (IoT-Core) - Simpler Using the PS Script to run Quickstarts on RPi (IoT-Core) Az-IoTHub-PS ...

Yes there are similar sounding posts to this including a really good in depth one here by Dave Glover. I am writing a series of .NET Core articles at 101 and up level for doing .NET Core on the RPi whether using Win10 IoT-Core or Raspbian. These can get you started. So far there are 7 articles including specifically getting up and running on RPi IoT-Core and one on Raspian. For good measure I even cover Windows Subsystem on Linux context.
