[AlvaroVega]

IoT Agent Node Lib version the issue has been seen with

3.2.0

Bound or port used (API interaction)

Southbound (Devices data API)

NGSI version

NGSIv2

Are you running a container?

Yes, I am using a contaner (Docker, Kubernetes...)

Image type

normal

Expected behaviour you didn't see

explicitAttributes true:
Just be attributes defined in active. Not measures.

Unexpected behaviour you saw

explicitAttributes true:

https://github.com/telefonicaid/iotagent-node-lib/blob/master/doc/api.md#explicitly-defined-attributes-explicitattrs

Case 2:

"explicitAttrs": true

just measures defined in active, static (plus conditionally TimeInstant) will be propagated to NGSI interface.
