deviceSetup failing to create customer under product specific ID

[Lcstyle]

OK

The device I was trying to claim was not running the correct firmware, so I could not register it under my product.
I discovered this when I logged into my new user manually using particle-cli and could not claim, with a product id of 6! which totally does not belong to me.

I also discovered that customers with no devices registered do not appear under the customers tab in the dashboard under the product. This comment seems to confirm it as well:

Example: Create Customer for Product using cURL

@emilkl, No worries, I actually found a fix! Rather simple actually. In my case, the dashboard would only show customers who had devices registered to their account. We spun up a quick mobile app using the new Carthage Example, (you need to use a custom app to register customers/devices to your specific product) and as soon as we used it to claim a device, the customer’s name would pop up in the dashboard. Hope that helps! mattw
