.. _peripheral_hids: Bluetooth: Peripheral HIDs ########################## Overview ******** Similar to the :ref:`Peripheral ` sample, except that this application specifically exposes the HID GATT Service. The report map used is for a generic mouse. In the default configuration the sample uses passkey authentication (displays a code on the peripheral and requires that to be entered on the host during pairing) and requires an authenticated link to access the GATT characteristics. To disable authentication and just use encrypted channels instead, build the sample with `CONFIG_SAMPLE_BT_USE_AUTHENTICATION=n`. Requirements ************ * BlueZ running on the host, or * A board with BLE support Building and Running ******************** This sample can be found under :zephyr_file:`samples/bluetooth/peripheral_hids` in the Zephyr tree. See :ref:`bluetooth samples section ` for details.
