# Obtain device JSON files for provisioning
After you've added your Sidewalk device to AWS IoT Core for Amazon Sidewalk, download the JSON file that contains the information required to provision your end device. You can retrieve this information using the AWS IoT console or the AWS CLI. For more information about how to provision the device, see [Provisioning and registering your end device](https://docs.sidewalk.amazon/provisioning/) in the *Amazon Sidewalk documentation*.
## Obtain JSON file (console)
To obtain the JSON file for provisioning your Sidewalk device:
1. Go to the [Sidewalk devices hub](https://console.aws.amazon.com/iot/home#/wireless/devices?tab=sidewalk).
1. Choose the device that you added to AWS IoT Core for Amazon Sidewalk to view its details.
1. Obtain the JSON file by choosing **Download device JSON file** in the details page of the device that you added.
A `certificate.json` file will be downloaded that contains the required information for provisioning your end device. The following shows a sample JSON file. It contains the device certificates, private keys, the Sidewalk manufacturing serial number (SMSN), and the `DeviceTypeID`.
```

}
```
In the details page of your Sidewalk device, you'll also see information about:
+ The device ID, its Amazon Resource Name (ARN), and details about any AWS IoT thing that the device is associated with.
+ The device profile and destination details.
+ The time at which the last uplink message was received from the device.
+ The status that indicates whether your device has been provisioned or registered.
## Obtain JSON file (CLI)
To obtain the JSON files for provisioning your Sidewalk end device using the AWS IoT Core for Amazon Sidewalk API or the AWS CLI, save the API response from retrieving information about your device profile and wireless device as JSON files, such as *`wireless_device.json`* and *`device_profile.json`* temporarily. You'll use them for provisioning your Sidewalk device.
The following shows how to retrieve the JSON files.

+ [Step 1: Get device profile information as JSON file](#iot-sidewalk-profile-get)
+ [Step 2: Get Sidewalk device information as JSON file](#iot-sidewalk-get-device)
### Step 1: Get device profile information as JSON file
Use the [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-wireless/latest/apireference/API_GetDeviceProfile.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-wireless/latest/apireference/API_GetDeviceProfile.html) API operation or the [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/get-device-profile.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/get-device-profile.html) CLI command to get information about your device profile that you added to your account for AWS IoT Core for Amazon Sidewalk. To retrieve information about your device profile, specify the profile ID.
The API will then return information about the device profile matching the specified identifier and the device ID. You save this response information as a file, and give it a name such as *`device_profile.json`*.
The following shows an example CLI command:
```
aws iotwireless get-device-profile \
--id "12345678-a1b2-3c45-67d8-e90fa1b2c34d" > device_profile.json
```
Running this command returns the parameters of your device profile, the application server public key, and the `DeviceTypeID`. The following shows a JSON file that contains a sample response information from the API. For more information about the parameters in the API response, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-wireless/latest/apireference/API_GetDeviceProfile.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-wireless/latest/apireference/API_GetDeviceProfile.html).
**`GetDeviceProfile` API response (Contents of `device_profile.json`)**
```

}
],
"QualificationStatus": false
}
}
```
### Step 2: Get Sidewalk device information as JSON file
Use the [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-wireless/latest/apireference/API_GetWirelessDevice.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-wireless/latest/apireference/API_GetWirelessDevice.html) API operation or the [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/get-wireless-device.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/get-wireless-device.html) CLI command to get information about your Sidewalk device that you added to your account for AWS IoT Core for Amazon Sidewalk. To get information about your end device, provide the identifier of the wireless device that you obtained when adding your device.
The API will then return information about the device matching the specified identifier and the device ID. Save this response information as a JSON file. Give the file a meaningful name, such as *`wireless_device.json`*.
The following shows an example of running the command using the CLI:
```
aws iotwireless get-wireless-device --identifier-type WirelessDeviceId \
--identifier "23456789-abcd-0123-bcde-fabc012345678" > wireless_device.json
```
Running this command returns the device details, device certificates, private keys, and the Sidewalk manufacturing serial number (SMSN). The following shows an example output of running this command. For more information about the parameters in the API response, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-wireless/latest/apireference/API_GetWirelessDevice.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-wireless/latest/apireference/API_GetWirelessDevice.html).

## Next steps
Store the JSON files, *`wireless_device.json`* and *`device_profile.json`* temporarily, as you'll use them in the next step to provision and register your end device for connecting to the hardware platform. For more information, see [Provisioning and registering your end device](https://docs.sidewalk.amazon/provisioning/) in the *Amazon Sidewalk documentation*.
