The Internet of Things: Edge Connect product allows connected users and devices to communicate on a publish-subscribe basis within reserved namespaces. (The Io​T Edge Connect API allows programmatic access.) This behavior allows you to select previously reserved namespaces and set the protocols for users to publish and receive messages within these namespaces. Use the verify​_json​_web​_token​_for​_dcp behavior to control access.
