How to add more than one beacon in a single region?

According to Estimote:

There is almost no limit to how many beacons can be included in a single region (technically, it’s over 4 billion).

How do we add more than one beacon in one single region for monitoring?

We create a region like this:

UUID ESTIMOTE_PROXIMITY_UUID = UUID.fromString("B9407F30-F5F8-4568-AFF9-25556B57FE6D");
Region ALL_ESTIMOTE_BEACONS = new Region("regionId", ESTIMOTE_PROXIMITY_UUID, null, null);
Solution

  • From an Estimote community manager:

    If a region is defined by UUID or UUID + Major, then every beacons with this UUID (or UUID + Major) is included

    Which means if i have two beacons with same UUID and Major and if i created Region then all the beacons belongs to that Region should be discovered.

    Example:

    UUID ESTIMOTE_PROXIMITY_UUID = UUID.fromString("B9407F30-F5F8-466E-AFF9-25556B57FE6D");
Region ALL_ESTIMOTE_BEACONS = new Region("regionId", major, null, null);
