2. Fill in the Products/POST Name is the only mandatory property. For more details about the properties of the Product, see Products/Post.

name (string): Specify any free-text name for the Product, which will be shown in the IoT Platform Portal.

Each request to the IoT Platform REST API requires the Client ID and Client Secret properties that are provided by IoT Platform when you create an account, or an Authorization token created from a login request.

1. The response to the Products/Post provides a unique Product ID.

2. Define a Product Manifest, which defines the metadata that is assigned for each Device, (both a Real and Virtual Device,) that belongs to the same Product. For example, all the properties of the same type of heat sensor model. See Defining a Product Manifest for more details. The IoT Platform Portal enables you to place the Product Manifest on the IoT Platform Server.
