Abstract
Systems and methods described herein provide for novel configuration features for setting up a user device automatically to connect to a network and register the user device to a user account. A mapping of user devices to cryptographic keys for the user devices may be maintained by a computer system. The computer system may receive information that specifies network information and user account information for a particular user device. A mapping of the network information and user account information to the particular user device may be generated. A machine-readable code that includes the network information for connecting the particular user device to the network and a token that includes credentials for the user account information may be generated and transmitted to a assistant configuration device.
