In the request body, provide the entire JSON for the workplaceSensorDevice object with updated fields. Partial updates aren't supported. If any optional property is excluded, it's set to null. To add new sensors, append a new sensor object to the existing sensor collection. If a sensor object is removed from the collection, it's deleted from the device.

The following table specifies the properties that can be updated.

Property Type Description
description String The description of the device. Optional.
deviceId String The user-defined unique identifier of the device provided at the time of creation. Required. Read-only.
displayName String The display name of the device. Optional.
ipV4Address String The IPv4 address of the device. Optional.
ipV6Address String The IPv6 address of the device. Optional.
macAddress String The MAC address of the device. Optional.
manufacturer String The manufacturer of the device. Required.
placeId String The unique identifier of the place where the device is located. If the device is installed in a room equipped with a mailbox, this property should match the ExternalDirectoryObjectId or Microsoft Entra object ID of the room mailbox. Optional.
sensors workplaceSensor collection A list of sensors associated with the device that collect and report data about physical or environmental conditions, such as occupancy, people count, inferred occupancy, temperature, and more. Required.
tags String collection A list of custom tags associated with the device. Supports $filter. Optional.

Response
