With Remote Command, you can use the Soracom API to send UDP data to a device that uses an IoT SIM.
UDP does not guarantee data delivery or provide a built-in way to confirm it. To verify receipt of UDP data, you must implement your own confirmation method on the device, such as sending an acknowledgment message to the Unified Endpoint when data is received.
Ensure your device is configured to accept incoming UDP data before using this feature.
Programmatic Usage
[block=api]
Soracom API
To access the Soracom API, first use the auth API to obtain an API Key and Token. Refer to the API Usage Guide for instructions on how to use the API Key and Token in API requests.
Then, use the sendDownlinkUdp API to send UDP data to a device that has an IoT SIM:
[ui-tabs theme=code] [ui-tab title=Global]
curl -X POST \
| -H 'X-Soracom-API-Key: <MY-API-KEY>' \
| -H 'X-Soracom-Token: <MY-TOKEN>' \
| -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
| -d '{
| "payload": "FFFFFF",
| "payloadEncoding": "hex",
| "port": 5005
| }' \
| https://g.api.soracom.io/v1/sims/<SIM_ID>/downlink/udp[/ui-tab] [ui-tab title=Japan]
curl -X POST \
| -H 'X-Soracom-API-Key: <MY-API-KEY>' \
| -H 'X-Soracom-Token: <MY-TOKEN>' \
| -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
| -d '{
| "payload": "FFFFFF",
| "payloadEncoding": "hex",
| "port": 5005
| }' \
| https://jp.api.soracom.io/v1/sims/<SIM_ID>/downlink/udp[/ui-tab] [/ui-tabs] [/block]
[block=cli]
Soracom CLI
To use the Soracom CLI, you must first configure it to authenticate with your account information, authorization key, or SAM user credentials.
Run the following command to send a UDP data to a device that has an IoT SIM:
[ui-tabs theme=code] [ui-tab title=Global]
body='{
| "payload": "FFFFFF",
| "payloadEncoding": "hex",
| "port": 5005
| }'
soracom sims downlink-udp --sim-id <SIM_ID> --body ${body} --coverage-type g[/ui-tab] [ui-tab title=Japan]
body='{
| "payload": "FFFFFF",
| "payloadEncoding": "hex",
| "port": 5005
| }'
soracom sims downlink-udp --sim-id <SIM_ID> --body ${body} --coverage-type jp[/ui-tab] [/ui-tabs] [/block]
