azure-iot-device
The Azure IoT Device SDK for Python enables Python developers to easily create IoT device solutions that seamlessly connect to the Azure IoT Hub ecosystem.
* *If you're looking for the azure-iot-hub library, it is now located in the [azure-iot-hub-python](https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-hub-python) repository*
* *If you're looking for the v1.x.x client library, it is now preserved in the [v1-deprecated](https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-python/tree/v1-deprecated) branch.*
## Installing the library
The Azure IoT Device library is available on PyPI:
```Shell
pip install azure-iot-device
```
Python 3.8 or higher is required in order to use the library
## Using the library
API documentation for this package is available via [**Microsoft Docs**](https://docs.microsoft.com/python/api/azure-iot-device/azure.iot.device?view=azure-python).
See our [**quickstart guide**](https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-python/tree/main/samples/README.md) for step by step instructions for setting up and using an IoTHub with devices.
You can also view the [**samples repository**](https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-python/tree/main/samples) to see additional examples of basic client usage.
Want to start off on the right foot? Be sure to learn about [**common pitfalls**](https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-python/wiki/pitfalls) of using this Python SDK before starting a project.
## Features
:heavy_check_mark: feature available :heavy_multiplication_x: feature planned but not yet supported :heavy_minus_sign: no support planned*
*Features that are not planned may be prioritized in a future release, but are not currently planned
These clients only support the **MQTT protocol**.

| [Upload file to Blob](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/iot-hub/iot-hub-devguide-file-upload) | :heavy_check_mark: | A device can initiate a file upload and notifies IoT Hub when the upload is complete. |
### IoTHub Module Client
**Note:** IoT Edge for Python is scoped to Linux containers & devices only. [Learn more](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/internet-of-things/linux-modules-with-azure-iot-edge-on-windows-10-iot-enterprise/ba-p/1407066) about using Linux containers for IoT edge on Windows devices.

## Critical Upcoming Changes Notice
### Certificates
All Azure IoT SDK users are advised to be aware of upcoming TLS certificate changes for Azure IoT Hub and Device Provisioning Service
that will impact the SDK's ability to connect to these services. In October 2022, both services will migrate from the current
[Baltimore CyberTrust CA Root](https://baltimore-cybertrust-root.chain-demos.digicert.com/info/index.html) to the
[DigiCert Global G2 CA root](https://global-root-g2.chain-demos.digicert.com/info/index.html). There will be a
transition period beforehand where your IoT devices must have both the Baltimore and Digicert public certificates
installed in their certificate store in order to prevent connectivity issues.
**Devices with only the Baltimore public certificate installed will lose the ability to connect to Azure IoT hub and Device Provisioning Service in October 2022.**
To prepare for this change, make sure your device's certificate store has both of these public certificates installed.
For a more in depth explanation as to why the IoT services are doing this, please see
[this article](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/internet-of-things/azure-iot-tls-critical-changes-are-almost-here-and-why-you/ba-p/2393169).
