Is it possible to move a device from Group 1 to Group 2 without re-flashing it using artemis?(edited)

Goal: we flash all devices using a "basis group" which have no defined customer. Once the customer is defined and the devices are installed we change the group and move the device into a new customer specific group.
In our case this is WiFi independent because we are using ethernet - so no connection credentials are needed.

Yes. Groups are only used to determine which pod the device should use.

Once you move a device to a different group and do a roll-out it will receive the pod from the new group.

or whats the best-practice to do so(edited)

I think at the moment you can just edit the devices.json file.

floitsch 03/26/2024 11:26 AM

I think there isn't a command for it yet.

floitsch 03/26/2024 11:27 AM

that said. I have a vague memory. Let me check.
