Step 1: Obtain the device attestation token

The attestation token uniquely identifies your device and proves its authenticity to nRF Cloud. You can get it in two ways:

• Automatically on first boot: When an unprovisioned device boots the Asset Tracker Template firmware for the first time, it prints the attestation token to the serial log. Power the device on, connect a serial terminal at 115200 baud as soon as the USB serial port enumerates, and look for the line labeled Attestation token: in the log output. If you missed it, reset the device while the serial terminal is still attached.

• Manually with a shell command: If you missed the token on first boot or need to retrieve it again, run the following AT command in the device shell through the serial terminal:

  at at%attesttoken
  

  The device prints the token as a string starting with %ATTESTTOKEN:. Copy the entire token value, without the %ATTESTTOKEN: prefix.
