Azure IoT Push notifications

Question

I'm little confused by using Azure IoT Hub. I can't figure out how is it possible to trigger api function of sending push notifications for iOS/Android stored on Azure by IoT device using IoT Hub?

Any help would be appreciated!

Answer 1

Azure IoT Hub has an Event Hub endpoint which you can connect to process device messages. Once you receive a message you can utilize Azure Notification Hub to send notifications to android/iOS.

Here's a link to a tutorial on processing device to cloud messages.
