Firmware Tutorial in RFID API-3

The below features are supported in RFID API-3 as part of Firmware update.

  • Url based update.

  • File based update.

But in Zebra IoT Connector, we support only Url based update.

We can update the reader firmware using set_os Rest API.

set_os
{
    "command": "set_os",
    "command_id": "16266718797272556",
    "payload": {
        "url": "https://hostname:portNo/path/to/Firmware",
        "authenticationType": "BASIC",
        "options": {
            "username": "user",
            "password": "passwd"
        }
    }
}

Note: we can use the server with NONE or BASIC authenticationType.

The firmware update progress status will be posted in management events.
