deploymentAudience: updateAudience

Namespace: microsoft.graph.windowsUpdates

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Update the members and exclusions relationships of a deploymentAudience.

Adding an azureADDevice to the members or exclusions collections of a deployment audience automatically creates a Microsoft Entra device object, if it doesn't already exist.

If the same updatableAsset gets included in the exclusions and members collections of a deploymentAudience, the deployment doesn't apply to that asset.

If all updatableAsset objects are the same type, you can also use the method updateAudienceById to update the deploymentAudience.

Note

This API has a known issue related to deployments created via Intune.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	❌	❌	❌

Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type	Least privileged permissions	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	WindowsUpdates.ReadWrite.All	Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	WindowsUpdates.ReadWrite.All	Not available.

Important

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must be an owner or member of the group or be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with a supported role permission. Intune Administrator, or Windows Update Deployment Administrator are the least privileged roles supported for this operation.
