Creating Devices

To deploy a config instance, first create a device to deploy to. Navigate to the Devices page.
Click + New Device and name the device Robot A.

​
Creating Tag Types

Next, create tag types and tags to organize the devices. Navigate to the Tags page.
We’ll create three tag types:
  • deployment_env
  • region
  • robot_model
Each tag type defines a metadata schema that tag metadata must adhere to. We’ve predefined all the metadata schemas for you. These are located in the tag-types directory of the getting-started repository, which you already cloned onto your local machine. 
title: deployment_env
type: object
properties:
  obstacle_avoidance_enabled:
    type: boolean
  navigation_mode:
    type: string
    enum: [conservative, balanced, aggressive]
  telemetry_upload_interval_sec:
    type: integer
    minimum: 10
    maximum: 300
required:
  - obstacle_avoidance_enabled
  - navigation_mode
Click the + New Tag Type button and upload the appropriate schema by clicking the Upload Schema button.
As an example, the deployment_env should look similar to the following after naming tag type and uploading the appropriate schema.
Repeat this process for the region and robot_model tag types.

​
Creating Tags

Next, create tags to categorize devices and define metadata for overrides. Navigate to the deployment_env page and click + New Tag to create a tag.
We’ll create a tag for each tag type. Use the following values when creating your tags.

​
Tagging Devices

Navigate back to the Devices page. Click the + Tags button for the Robot A device.
Using the select tags dropdown, tag Robot A with the
  • Outdoors tag of the deployment_env tag type.
  • US-West tag of the region tag type.
  • Turtlebot 4 tag of the robot_model tag type.
Each device may only have one tag per tag type.
