Platforms Page
The Platforms page can be accessed directly from the T IoT Hub dashboard using the menu in the Connectivity Management tile. The Platforms tile also gives an overview of available platforms.
To manage platform credentials, please go to the Platforms page.
The Platforms page displays the currently compatible platforms, which can be connected to the T IoT Hub.
The list of Platforms may vary according to setting of the tenant.
When first being setup, a user with administrator role privileges needs to connect their company’s platform account with the T IoT Hub.
Platforms are identified by the mobile operator and the name of the technical platform known to the user.
To directly access the original platform login, click on the external link icon.
- The API access may use a different platform name using an API prefix.
For administrators only: after clicking on the desired platform, below the list of the platform you can see the list of added credentials (or only the Add new account button, if no credentials were added yet).
The pop up is opened. It contains a form for credentials.
- Different platforms require a different set of credentials. So will see different input fields here.
- This information is only known to the company’s administrator.

Once correctly entered T IoT Hub will be able to directly connect to the platform and immediately display the data provided by the platform.
