Table Definition

Column NameColumn Data Type
endpoint_type Input Column

The endpoint type. Valid endpoint types include:

  • iot:Data - Returns a VeriSign signed data endpoint.

  • iot:Data-ATS - Returns an ATS signed data endpoint.

  • iot:CredentialProvider - Returns an IoT credentials provider API endpoint.

  • iot:Jobs - Returns an IoT device management Jobs API endpoint.

We strongly recommend that customers use the newer iot:Data-ATS endpoint type to avoid issues related to the widespread distrust of Symantec certificate authorities. ATS Signed Certificates are more secure and are trusted by most popular browsers.
