The Azure IoT extension for Azure CLI aims to accelerate the development, management and automation of Azure IoT solutions. It does this via addition of rich features and functionality to the official Azure CLI.
Please refer to the official az iot reference on Microsoft Docs for a complete list of supported commands. You can also find IoT CLI usage tips on the wiki.
- Install the Azure CLI
- You must have at least
v2.0.70, which you can verify withaz --version
- You must have at least
- Add, Update or Remove the IoT extension with the following commands:

az extension remove --name azure-iot
- Add:
Please refer to the Installation Troubleshooting Guide if you run into any issues or the Alternative Installation Methods if you'd like to install from a GitHub release or local source.
After installing the Azure IoT extension your CLI environment is augmented with the addition of central, device, dps, dt, edge, hub and pnp commands.
For usage and help content for any command or command group, pass in the -h parameter, for example:
$ az iot hub -h
