Update a configuration policy for the specified customer

Applies to: Partner Center

How to update the specified configuration policy for the specified customer.

Prerequisites

• Credentials as described in Partner Center authentication. This scenario supports authentication with both standalone App and App+User credentials.

• A customer ID (customer-tenant-id). If you don't know the customer's ID, you can look it up in Partner Center by selecting the Customers workspace, then the customer from the customer list, then Account. On the customer's Account page, look for the Microsoft ID in the Customer Account Info section. The Microsoft ID is the same as the customer ID (customer-tenant-id).

• The policy identifier.

C#

To update an existing configuration policy for the specified customer, instantiate a new ConfigurationPolicy object as shown in the following code snippet. The values in this new object replace the corresponding values in the existing object. Then, call the IAggregatePartner.Customers.ById method with the customer ID to retrieve an interface to operations on the specified customer. Next, call the ConfigurationPolicies.ById method with the policy ID to retrieve an interface to configuration policy operations for the specified policy. Finally, call the Patch or PatchAsync method to update the configuration policy.

IAggregatePartner partnerOperations;
string selectedCustomerId;
string selectedConfigurationPolicyId;

ConfigurationPolicy configPolicyToBeUpdated = new ConfigurationPolicy()
{
    Name= "Test Config Policy",
    Id = selectedConfigurationPolicyId,
    PolicySettings = new List<PolicySettingsType>() {
        PolicySettingsType.OobeUserNotLocalAdmin,
        PolicySettingsType.RemoveOemPreinstalls }
};

ConfigurationPolicy updatedConfigurationPolicy =
    partnerOperations.Customers.ById(selectedCustomerId).ConfigurationPolicies.ById(selectedConfigurationPolicyId).Patch(configPolicyToBeUpdated);
