Microsoft Graph hardwareInformation query returning an error

Question

Hi all,

Sorry in advance - I am a powershell noob!

What I want to know is of all the laptops in our Intune, what language they each have set.

I have written the following powershell script to query all laptops running Windows and using a foreach loop to query each. I know there is an issue with hardwareInformation so I have included that in the $select

This is the code:

connect-mgGraph

$Devices = Get-MgBetaDeviceManagementManagedDevice -Filter "Operatingsystem eq 'Windows'"

Foreach ($Device in $Devices)
{
    $DeviceID = $Device.Id
    $URI = "https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/deviceManagement/manageddevices/$DeviceID?$select=hardwareInformation,OperatingSystemLanguage"
    Invoke-MgGraphRequest -Method GET -Uri $URI
}

This is the error:

Thanks for any help in advance!

@Ross Lumby, Thanks for posting in Q&A. Based on my test, the Graph API cannot by query via the URL we set. But we can query the information via the following code:

connect-mgGraph
$ManagedDevices = Get-MgBetaDeviceManagementManagedDevice -Filter "Operatingsystem eq 'Windows'"
write-Host "The device Operating System Language information"
Foreach ($ManagedDevice in $ManagedDevices){
$hardware=(Get-MgBetaDeviceManagementManagedDevice -ManagedDeviceId $ManagedDevice.id -Property hardwareinformation).HardwareInformation
$hardwareinfo=$hardware.OperatingSystemLanguage
write-Host $ManagedDevice.DeviceName $ManagedDevice.id,$hardwareinfo
}

Hope the above information can help.
