The invention relates to the technical field of
Internet of Things and discloses a method and a device for associating
Internet of Things equipment with a user account. The method is used for a
server and comprises the following steps of receiving login information from
terminal equipment, wherein the login information comprises the user account; searching related information of the corresponding
Internet of Things equipment according to the user account; sending the related information of the corresponding searched Internet of Things equipment to the
terminal equipment; receiving a replay message sent by the
terminal equipment, wherein the reply message comprises the user account and an identifier of
the Internet of Things equipment, which is selected from the corresponding Internet of Things equipment on the terminal equipment by a user; and associating the identifier of
the Internet of Things equipment, which is selected by the user, with the user account. According to the method and the device, the automatic association between
the Internet of Things equipment and the user account is realized, the operation efficiency is improved, and the associated Internet of Things equipment is selected from the Internet of Things equipment corresponding to the user account, so that the association between the user account and the uncorrelated Internet of Things equipment is avoided, and the
network security is improved.
