is a pre-requisite

I tried to create a device in the Cloud with the command
arduino-cloud-cli device create
.It turned out that, for security reasons (see this interesting blog post), this command has to configure the board via the so-called "provisioning process" which requires to flash a specific sketch on the board as part of the process.
For this reason, internally, it tries to call the
arduino-cli
to flash such a sketch on the board.Since I didn't have the
arduino-cli
installed, the process failed.After installing it, the process completed successfully.
I would suggest to update the README file to add this dependency from the
arduino-cli
for some commands (namely, thedevice create
command).The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
