Connect to IoT Central as EventStream source

I'm working on a PoC to get IoT data into a Fabric KQL store in EventHouse.  I have device data coming into IoT Central. I wanted to ingest that data into a Fabric KQL DB using EventStream.  However, when I go to create the source connection, I use "Add external source" and I only see Azure IoT Hub. I had no luck finding the underlying IoT Hub connection info (name and access key) within IoT Central. Can you help, please?

 

TIA,

  • Thank you, Dino.  I was able to get it to work using custom endpoint (EventHub type) in a Fabric EventStream. Then creating a Destination to that custom endpoint (EventHub) in IoT Central. It is working!

    Hi PeterDaniels ,

    Eventstream currently only supports the following data sources:
    Add and manage eventstream sources - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn
    IoT Central does not yet support connectivity as a data source; if you can, export data from IoT Central to Azure IoT Hub and then from IoT Hub to EventStream.
