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. You can also add your own data to custom properties as extensions.

Properties

Important

Specific usage of $filter and the $search query parameter is supported only when you use the ConsistencyLevel header set to eventual and $count. For more information, see Advanced query capabilities on directory objects.

Property Type Description
accountEnabled Boolean true if the account is enabled; otherwise, false. Required. Default is true.

Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, in). Only callers in Global Administrator and Cloud Device Administrator roles can set this property.

approximateLastSignInDateTime DateTimeOffset The timestamp type represents date and time information using ISO 8601 format and is always in UTC time. For example, midnight UTC on Jan 1, 2014 is 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z. Read-only. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, ge, le, and eq on null values) and $orderby.
complianceExpirationDateTime DateTimeOffset The timestamp when the device is no longer deemed compliant. The timestamp type represents date and time information using ISO 8601 format and is always in UTC time. For example, midnight UTC on Jan 1, 2014 is 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z. Read-only.
deviceCategory String User-defined property set by Intune to automatically add devices to groups and simplify managing devices.
deviceId String Unique identifier set by Azure Device Registration Service at the time of registration. This is an alternate key that can be used to reference the device object. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, startsWith).
deviceMetadata String For internal use only. Set to null.
deviceOwnership String Ownership of the device. This property is set by Intune. Possible values are: unknown, company, personal.

enrollmentProfileName String Enrollment profile applied to the device. For example, Apple Device Enrollment Profile, Device enrollment - Corporate device identifiers, or Windows Autopilot profile name. This property is set by Intune.
extensionAttributes onPremisesExtensionAttributes Contains extension attributes 1-15 for the device. The individual extension attributes are not selectable. These properties are mastered in cloud and can be set during creation or update of a device object in Microsoft Entra ID.

Supports $filter (eq, not, startsWith, and eq on null values).
id String The unique identifier for the device. Inherited from directoryObject. Key, Not nullable. Read-only. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, in).
isCompliant Boolean true if the device complies with Mobile Device Management (MDM) policies; otherwise, false. Read-only. This can only be updated by Intune for any device OS type or by an approved MDM app for Windows OS devices. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not).
isManaged Boolean true if the device is managed by a Mobile Device Management (MDM) app; otherwise, false. This can only be updated by Intune for any device OS type or by an approved MDM app for Windows OS devices. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not).
manufacturer String Manufacturer of the device. Read-only.
mdmAppId String Application identifier used to register device into MDM. Read-only. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, startsWith).
model String Model of the device. Read-only.
onPremisesLastSyncDateTime DateTimeOffset The last time at which the object was synced with the on-premises directory. The Timestamp type represents date and time information using ISO 8601 format and is always in UTC time. For example, midnight UTC on Jan 1, 2014 is 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Read-only. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, ge, le, in).
onPremisesSyncEnabled Boolean true if this object is synced from an on-premises directory; false if this object was originally synced from an on-premises directory but is no longer synced; null if this object has never been synced from an on-premises directory (default). Read-only. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, in, and eq on null values).
operatingSystem String The type of operating system on the device. Required. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, ge, le, startsWith, and eq on null values).
operatingSystemVersion String The version of the operating system on the device. Required. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, ge, le, startsWith, and eq on null values).
physicalIds String collection For internal use only. Not nullable. Supports $filter (eq, not, ge, le, startsWith,/$count eq 0, /$count ne 0).
