Hey guys, Can we specify the target system firmware when updating using particle update command in DFU mode? I know we could do it using the binaries, but I am wondering if it is possible with a single command, like particle update 1.2.1? Is it possible to pass the WiFi credentials using a single …

@Rahul_G You can pass the credentials using particle serial wifi As for updating using the CLI with a simple command, I don’t think its there yet. You’d have to download the specific system-part binary and load it using DFU mode. The only thing I can think of that you can do is set the version of…

@jaredwolff Thanks for the response. We are creating an application that could communicate with the CLI and the user. The user could just insert the WiFi credentials in a text-box and our application will communicate to the photon via CLI and set credentials. Our application might need to communica…

[image] Rahul_G: Our application might need to communicate 2-3 times to the CLI for setting WiFi. I am looking for a single command to do it, maybe like particle serial wifi SSID Password . The problem with this is that this setup scans for SSIDs, etc. So maybe not so ideal in your situation. …

Thanks @jaredwolff . This is really helpful, will look into setting WiFi credentials a little more. Cheers! :beers:

Thanks for the info @ScruffR . The system firmware update command will definitely come in handy. Sending the WiFi creds with the JSON file might take a lot of effort in our case. We might go with the CLI even if it takes 2-3 steps.

[image] Rahul_G: Sending the WiFi creds with the JSON file might take a lot of effort in our case How's that? Creating a simple text file, storing it in a temporary location and passing that file path to the CLI doesn't seem that complicated. I'd imagine the back and forth with parsing the C…

Hey @ScruffR , Thanks for pointing it out! Could you please provide the link for the documentation?

Just type particle serial wifi --help and see :wink:
