Service APIs overview

The Pelion Device Management service APIs are based on the RESTful paradigm.

The APIs provide a concrete and consistent view of resources with support for Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD) operations.

Why use the APIs?

You can use the APIs to:

• Use your own version of Device Management with your own branding.
• Make frequent changes to your devices.
• Create your own subset of features.
• Interact directly with devices instead of through Device Management Portal.
• Perform operations that are unavailable through Device Management Portal.
• Use Device Management without graphical interfaces (for experienced developers).
