We are creating IoTEdge devices form a 3rd party dashboard, and using preauth API we are able to get the device in preauth state(https://hosted.mender.io).
Now we want to accept the device in hosted mender. How can this be done, any help would be appreciated.
Hi @sahithi,
The preauthentication flow is described here: Preauthorizing devices | Mender documentation
By using the API you create devices in the pre authenticated state, and once they connect with the prepared identity and key they are moved to accepted.

HI @TheYoctoJester ,
Thanks for the response, we are not able to accept the device now. but we cant see device configuration, Inventory details. requesting your input on this.
Hi @sahithi,
In a nutshell: just wait, it’s the polling cycle in effect, plus the refresh of the web dashboard. If you have a long inventory update polling cycle configured but want to do a first inventory update early, then you can use the mender-update send-inventory command.
