Microsoft Azure IoT Hub SDK for .NET Release 2020-3-13

Microsoft.Azure.Devices v1.20.0

• Enables new security functionality to specify how hub should authenticate when working with a storage account when running import/export devices jobs. Initially, this feature has limited availability, starting with 3 public cloud Azure regions. For more information, see this documentation. Since it is not yet widely available, this functionality must be explicitly enabled by the user. See below (1) for details.
  • New enum StorageAuthenticationType to specify key-based or identity-based authentication.
  • New property JobProperties.StorageAuthenticationType for use in import/export devices jobs.
  • Added two overloaded methods: RegistryManager.ImportDevicesAsync and RegistryManager.ExportDevicesAsync. The overloads take a JobProperties instance so the user can pass all required and any optional parameters.
  • Two factory methods to make it easier to call ImportDevicesAsync and ExportDevicesAsync, making it clear which properties are required and which are optional. They are JobProperties.CreateForInportJob and JobProperties.CreateForExportJob respectively.
