Azure Digital Twins is an Internet of Things (IoT) platform that enables you to create a digital representation of real-world things, places, business processes, and people. Gain insights that help you drive better products, optimize operations and costs, and create breakthrough customer experiences. This connectors enables to interact with the digital twins API. It will allow you to create, manage and query the twins.

Prerequisites

You will need the following to proceed:

  • A Microsoft Power Apps or Power Automate plan with custom connector feature
  • An Azure subscription
  • The Power platform CLI tools
  • Azure Digital Twin instance

How to get credentials

Use your Microsoft Entra ID user id and password that is given permission to access the Digital twins endpoints.

Get started with your connector

Known issues and limitations

  • Since the ADT deals with dynamic schema responses. The app developer should parse the json to their model before consuming it. eg: Set(jsonVal, AzureDigitalTwins.GetTwinById(TextInput1.Text).result); Set(parsedResp, ParseJSON(jsonVal)); Set( DtId, Text(parsedResp.'$dtId'));

Common errors and remedies

  • Json Parser error:
    • Incase the model doesnt match with the parsed json, you will receive a json parser error. To solve that, please check the response xml and access the values accordingly.

FAQ

  • Can we create ADT instance through connector?

    • You should go to Azure to create and delete the ADT instance.

  • Is pagenation available?

    • Pagenation is done within the app development by using the continuation token.

  • Can we access multiple ADT instance in one app?

    • In order to access the multiple ADT instance, a new connection has to be established and used it appropriately within the application.

Creating a connection

The connector supports the following authentication types:
Default Parameters for creating connection. All regions Not shareable
