All the previously registered devices in the Libelium Cloud will be available as well to the Libelium Cloud Bridge service.
Register your Devices
Sensor nodes, MySignals devices and Meshlium gateways should be registered with the user account to properly use the Libelium Services Cloud Manager services. MySignals devices registration must be done using the app available in the Google Play store for Android and the App Store for iOS. Plug & Sense! sensor nodes and Meshlium gateways are registered using activations codes in the Libelium Service Cloud Manager.
Adding Plug & Sense! Devices
Click the "Add Device" button to add new devices to the Services Cloud Manager. Registering new devices is a 2-step procedure:
Enter a valid Activation Code
Confirm the action
Entering a Single Activation Code will register one device, while entering a Group Activation Code will register all devices belonging to the same sales order.
When the process is successfully finished, a message will show that the device has been correctly added to “My Devices” the panel, confirming the ownership of the device.
If the process cannot be correctly finished, a message will notify the error:
Not valid code error message: "Invalid activation code: please check that the activation code typed is valid".
Not available code error message: "Activation code previously used". The device will appear in the “My Devices” panel with a status of "Transfer pending" in the action column. The current owner of the device will be notified about another user claiming for the ownership of that device. The pending transfer device will also appear in the current owner “Claimed by others” panel, so the current owner of the device may accept or reject the ownership request of the device.

The “Get Licenses” panel shows information about the license type for each service, click on any of them to purchase new licenses.
Setup the Cloud Connector
The Libelium Cloud Bridge service resends data received from sensor nodes to any of the available cloud services (Alibaba Cloud, AWS IoT, Cumulocity, IBM Cloud, Microsoft Azure Event Hubs, Microsoft Azure IoT Hubs, MQTT, SAP Hana and Telefonica IoT Cloud). The Libelium Cloud Bridge service requires at least one valid account in the destination cloud service, the connection credentials provided by the destination cloud services must be configured to properly send data to them. In case of having more than one valid account in the destination cloud service, several instances of one connector may be configured.
The specific parameters for each cloud service configuration are described in the section “Cloud Service Connectors” “Configuration Parameters” of this guide.
