Groups

Groups are the primary configuration unit in the Soracom platform. By assigning SIMs to a group, you apply a shared set of service configurations — such as Beam forwarding rules, Harvest data collection, or Air speed class settings — to all members of that group.

What it does

• Shared configuration: Define service settings once and apply them to all SIMs in the group
• Service activation: Enable and configure Beam, Funnel, Funk, Harvest, and other services per group
• Fleet segmentation: Organize devices by environment (dev/staging/prod), location, or use case
• Air settings: Control speed class, metadata, and connectivity behavior at the group level
• Dynamic membership: Add or remove SIMs from groups at any time via console or API

Common use cases

• Applying identical Beam forwarding rules to a fleet of sensors
• Separating development and production device configurations
• Enabling Harvest data collection for a subset of devices
