Routing in an IoT hub enables you to define rules and conditions based on the message content or device metadata and then automatically route the messages to appropriate endpoints. These endpoints can include other Azure services, custom applications, storage systems, databases, or even other IoT hubs.

Here’s a high-level overview of how routing works in an IoT hub:

  1. The device sends a message: An IoT device connected to the IoT hub sends a telemetry message, event, or state update to the hub.
