The present disclosure relates to new network device source entity triggered device configuration setup. Specifically, various techniques and systems are provided for efficient setup of a acquired device on a network using information generated by a new network device source entity. More specifically, exemplary embodiments of the present invention include methods and systems for receiving, at a computing device connected to an established network device on a network, an acquisition communication including an indication that a new network device has been acquired; transmitting data to the established network device, wherein the data includes identification information associated with the new network device; receiving a join query, wherein the join query includes a request to authorize the new network device to join a network; and transmitting a response to the join query, wherein the response includes an authorization for the new network device to join the network.

Network device source entity triggered device configuration setup

The present disclosure relates to techniques for interacting with an electronic device. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to initiating action(s) using an interface configured to control operation of IoT devices. An example embodiment includes receiving, at a computing device, a communication including a unique identifier for a network device connected to a network, using the unique identifier to determine a resource bundle for the network device, the resource bundle defining an interface module for the network device, wherein the interface module is configured to display one or more interface elements usable to control the network device, and transmitting the resource bundle, wherein when the resource bundle is received, the resource bundle facilitates generating the interface module.
