Please, ANSWER this question AT http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37591168/fiware-iotagent-and-context-broker
Question:
Fiware IoTAgent and Context Broker
Description:
I'm following this example to create a simple scenario where I register a new device into the IoT Agent and it forwards it to the Context Broker. Then I want to check if the created device exists in the Context Broker, and I can seem to find it.
These are the steps I'm doing:
1. using Postman I'm sending a post request to the IoT Agent:
url: http://eidas5.lab.fi-ware.org:5371/iot/devices    
headers: 
APIKEY:4jggokgpepnvsb2uv4s40d59ov
Fiware-Service:openiot
Fiware-ServicePath:/
Content-Type:application/json
Accept:application/json
body:
{
 "devices": [
    { "device_id": "DEV_ID",
      "entity_name": "ENTITY_ID",
      "entity_type": "thing",
      "protocol": "PDI-IoTA-UltraLight",
      "timezone": "Europe/Madrid",
      "attributes": [
    
 ],
  "static_attributes": [
   ]
  }
 ]
} 
Then I confirm that the device is registered with a GET request to the url http://eidas5.lab.fi-ware.org:5371/iot/devices/DEV_ID
request headers:
APIKEY:4jggokgpepnvsb2uv4s40d59ov
Fiware-Service:openiot
Fiware-ServicePath:/
Content-Type:application/json
Accept:application/json
everything seems ok so far, now I want to check where this device is in the context broker:
According to the docs:
Devices will be represented as NGSI entities in the ContextBroker at 130.206.80.40:1026 (within the FIWARE service-path "OpenIoT").
So with a GET request I should be able to see the new device,but I can't. I even tryed using the fiware-servicepath and fiware-service headers as above, and I can't find it.
Any advice on this?
