The Azure IoT platform is an integration with Azure IoT Hub for homeasistant

To add Azure IoT to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
azureiot:
    host: <azure-iot-host>
    devices:
        <azure-iot-device-name>:
        auth_key: <auth-key>
        include:
          - <sensors>
        <another-azure-iot-device-name>:
        auth_key: <auth-key>
        include:
          - <sensors>
```

Configuration variables:

- **azure-iot-host** : Name of your Azure IoT Hub host (without .azure-devices.net)
- **azure-iot-device-name** : Name of your Azure IoT Hub device.
- **auth-key**: The authentication key for the device.
- **sensors** array (*Optional*): The sensor values you want to send to the Azure IoT hub. Note, not specifying any sensors will send all event changes to Azure IoT

A full configuration example can be found below:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
azureiot:
    host: myazureiothub
    devices:
      hass_device_1:
        auth_key: ABC1230ABC1230ABC1230ABC1230ABC1230ABC12300=
        include:
          - sun.sun
          - sensor.dht_sensor_temperature
          - sensor.yr_temperature
      hass_device_2:
        auth_key: ABC1230ABC1230ABC1230ABC1230ABC1230ABC12300=
        include:
          - group.phones
