Knox E-FOTA workflow
Last updated September 12th, 2024
The Knox E-FOTA best practices guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough of:
- License registration and management
- Device management
- Campaign and firmware management
- Device monitoring and troubleshooting
This diagram shows a general overview of the Knox E-FOTA workflow:
Many Knox E-FOTA API operations involve uploading or processing a large number of devices at once. When creating your API request, it is more efficient to include multiple devices in a single bulk request, rather than making individual calls for each device.
Performing operations in bulk is generally considered more efficient than doing it one by one for several reasons:
- Time Efficiency: Bulk operations can significantly reduce the time needed to operate on devices devices.
- Consistency: It ensures that all devices are configured consistently, reducing the likelihood of human error during the setup process.
- Automation: Bulk operations often involves automation tools or scripts, which can streamline the process and minimize manual intervention.
- Centralized Control: Centralizing the operations of devices allows for easier management and monitoring of enrolled resources.
- Scalability: Bulk operations are more scalable, making it easier to add and process new devices.
Overall, bulk operations are more efficient and error-resistant, particularly suited for larger networks or when deploying numerous devices simultaneously. It simplifies the management and monitoring of devices and is a key practice in devices enrollment administration.
Knox Webhook Notification with Knox E-FOTA
Many Knox E-FOTA API operations are asynchronous. You can use Knox Webhook Notification to receive result notifications once these operations are complete. See how to get notifications for Knox E-FOTA with Knox Webhook Notification.
Here are all the Knox E-FOTA events you can subscribe to on Knox Webhook Notification.
Event | Action | Description |
---|---|---|
KE_DEVICE_BULK_CREATE |
Bulk upload | Allows bulk upload of devices. |
KE_DEVICE_BULK_REFRESH |
Bulk refresh | Forces the Knox E-FOTA client app to refresh on multiple devices. |
KE_DEVICE_BULK_DELETE |
Bulk deletion | Allows bulk deletion of devices. |
KE_CAMPAIGN_DELETE |
Campaign deletion | Deletes an existing Knox E-FOTA campaign. |
KE_DEVICE_STATUS_CHANGE |
Device status change | Change in device status (operation or client status). |
KE_DEVICE_BULK_LICENSE_UNENROLL |
Bulk license unenrolling | Bulk license unerolling of devices. |
