Abstract

A method for connecting a field device to a first cloud based service platform includes reading-out a first ticket from the field device using the first service device, wherein the first ticket includes at least one piece of information identifying the field device. The first ticket is transmitted to a second cloud based service platform from the first service device. The method also includes mutual associating and verifying of the first ticket and a second ticket produced at the manufacturer and stored in the second service platform. In the case of successful verifying, the connecting information for the first cloud based service platform is transmitted from the second cloud based service platform to the first service device. A communication connection between the first service device and the first cloud based service platform is established based on the connecting information transmitted from the second service platform.
