Contents

The Microsoft Azure IoT C SDK is available as five Objective-C CocoaPods:

• AzureIoTUtility contains the Azure IoT C Shared Utility library
• AzureIoTuAmqp contains the Azure IoT AMQP library
• AzureIoTuMqtt contains the Azure IoT MQTT library
• AzureIoTHubClient contains the Azure IoT Hub Client
• AzureIoTHubServiceClient contains the Azure IoT Hub Service Client

Samples

Samples in Swift for iOS are here.

iOS Limitations

• Authentication is limited to SAS keys on iOS. No certificate-based authentication is officially supported.
• The Device Provisioning Client is not supported on iOS. Only the Azure IoT Hub device client is supported.

For a more complete iOS experience including the two missing features above, please see our sample native Swift library built on top of the Embedded C SDK.

Using Azure IoT CocoaPods with Objective-C

Using Objective-C libraries within another Objective-C app or library requires setting up header search paths just like typical C libraries require

The header search path values you'll need to set for the Azure IoT CocoaPods are:

• ${PODS_ROOT}/AzureIoTHubClient/inc/
• ${PODS_ROOT}/AzureIoTHubServiceClient/inc/
• ${PODS_ROOT}/AzureIoTUtility/inc/
• ${PODS_ROOT}/AzureIoTuMqtt/inc/
• ${PODS_ROOT}/AzureIoTuAmqp/inc/

Using Azure IoT CocoaPods with Swift

Swift apps and libraries can use Azure IoT CocoaPods with standard Swift imports:

• import AzureIoTHubClient
• import AzureIoTHubServiceClient
• import AzureIoTuAmqp
• import AzureIoTuMqtt
• import AzureIoTUtility
