Description

Azure IoT Hub is a fully managed service that enables reliable and secure bidirectional communications between millions of IoT devices and a solution back end. It also enables you to route messages to various endpoints for further processing.

Message routing in IoT Hub is a very important feature as it enables you to send telemetry data from your IoT devices to built-in endpoints or custom endpoints. Organizations can leverage this feature to route messages to built-in endpoints such as Azure Blob storage, Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2, Azure Event Hubs, and Azure Service Bus to achieve various business goals.

In this hands-on lab, you will create a message routing rule to route the messages from the IoT Hub to a storage account. You will then validate the message routing by checking the files generated by the routing rule in the storage account.
