Harry_p — Mon, 03 Jul 2023 07:14:19 GMT

I'm trying to perform ota on matter device using google the version I'm using is

Google Home version: 3.2.1.7
Nest Hub version(GUIK2 2nd gen): 1.56.324896

I have created a project in developer console and followed the steps:

Go to Matter > OTA.
Click Manage next to the device in the Devices list.

There is no option Manage to move further. Could anyone help me with this. Thanks in advance.

Can you provide details about the VID (TEST VID/CSA issued VID) which you are using in your project ? Also, can you share the screenshot of the develop section ?

I'm using Test VID:0xFFF1 and PID:0x8000. I don't see an option to add the OTA image

For devices with Test VID it is not possible to manage them using the Matter OTA feature. You should try making use of devices with CSA issued VID.

@sipriyadarshi I added ota image to the project successfully, but to test the ota the prerequisites are Docker Engine and matter integration.

how does ota work with docker set. I have gone through this doc on testing ota where they have given the commands for docker usage, but didn't get a clarity on how its going to work.

Could you help me with this.

Thank You.
