device resource type
Namespace: microsoft.graph
Represents a device registered in the organization. Devices are created in the cloud using the Device Registration Service or by Intune. They're used by conditional access policies for multi-factor authentication. These devices can range from desktop and laptop machines to phones and tablets. Inherits from directoryObject.
This resource is an open type that allows other properties to be passed in.
This resource supports:
- Adding your own data to custom properties as extensions.
- Using delta query to track incremental additions, deletions, and updates, by providing a delta function.
- OData query capabilities including
$select,$filter,$search, and$top. Specific usages are supported only with Advanced query capabilities.
