Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial IoT (IIoT)

We need to send BLE data to a third party company from our WLAN controllers. We cannot allow the data to be forwarded via the controller management network so need to be able to specify a route via another interface. I cannot see anywhere this can be configured in the profile. I guess we could create a static route but this would be an issue if the URL IP changes. 

I would think that most people would not want to forward traffic via the controller management network so is there another way of doing this? 

We are running OS 8.10.0.12

IoT transports run from the management plane of the controller, so use the (single) routing table in the controller. In most cases, yes that is a management network, and as it's outbound traffic, customers just (need to) allow that outbound from the controller's IP. Yes, you can create a dedicated VLAN, with IP, and a static route to your IoT server, and yes if that changes IP you would need to make sure that that traffic takes the same route (or is allowed from the default controller IP). The transport is an HTTPS tunnel (or at least that is the recommendation), so should not be able to break out anywhere.
