Is it possible to flash a Core from firmware via the web interface?

Hi,

I would like to share the firmware I compiled with a friend so that he can test it on his Core.

However, he is not comfortable with the command line, and I wonder if it is possible to do one of the following:

  1. For me to flash his Core remotely if I know its ID, even though I do not own it.
  2. For him to upload the firmware to the Spark Cloud / web editor, and from there to flash his Core with it.

Thank you for your help!

Look at the command here:

You will need an access token and the core id

curl -X PUT -F file=@my-firmware-app.bin -F file_type=binary \
