4Updating the Details of an Android Device

Description Use this REST API to update the details of an Android device.

Resource Path /{id}

URL /mdm-android-agent/device/{id}

HTTP Method PUT

Request/Response Format application/json

cURL command

curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer <EMM_API_TOKEN>" -k -d @'<JSON_PAYLOAD>' -v https://<EMM_HOST>:<EMM_HTTPS_PORT>/mdm-android-agent/device/{id}

For more information on how to generate the <EMM_API_TOKEN>, see Generating the EMM API Token.
By default, <EMM_HOST> is localhost. However, if you are using a public IP, the respective IP address or domain needs to be specified.
By default, <EMM_HTTPS_PORT> has been set to 9443. However, if the port offset has been incremented by n, the default port value needs to be incremented by n.
{id} - Provide the device identifier as the value of the device ID. For more information on retrieving the device ID, see Retrieving a Device ID .

Example: Update the details of the Android device where the device identifier is 867115026844138.

curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer cce3d4671a67c09852e445c67e47c09a" -k -d @'update_device_info.json' -v https://localhost:9443/mdm-android-agent/device/867115026844138

Property	Description	Data Type
description	Additional information on the device.	String
`deviceIdentifier`	This is a 64-bit number (as a hex string) that is randomly generated when the user first sets up the device and should remain constant for the lifetime of the user's device. The value may change if a factory reset is performed on the device. When a device has multiple users (available on certain devices running Android 4.2 or higher), each user appears as a completely separate device; therefore, the `deviceIdentifier` value is unique to each user.	String
enrolmentInfo	This defines the device registration related information. It is mandatory to define this information.
`owner`	The device owner's name.	String
`dateOfEnrolment`	Date that the device was registered with WSO2 EMM. The date is given in the Epoch time format.	Timestamp
`ownership`	Defines the ownership details. The ownership type can be any of the following values. BYOD - Bring your own device (BYOD). COPE - Corporate owned personally enabled (COPE).	String
`name`	The device name that can be set on the device by the device user.	String
`properties`	Defines details that correspond to the device. Defining properties are optional. `IMEI -` The International Mobile Station Equipment Identity (IMEI) is a number, usually unique, which is used to identify a device. `IMSI -` The International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) is used to identify the user of a cellular network and is a unique identification associated with all cellular networks. `DEVICE_MODEL -` The model of the Android device. `VENDOR -` The name of the Android device vendor. `OS_VERSION -` The version of the Android device operating system. `DEVICE_NAME -` The name defined for the device. `BATTERY_LEVEL -` The current level of the Android device battery. `LATITUDE -` The latitude of the Android device. `LONGITUDE -` The longitude of the Android device. `INTERNAL_TOTAL_MEMORY -` The total capacity of the internal memory available in the Android device. `INTERNAL_AVAILABLE_MEMORY -` The remaining capacity of the internal memory available in the Android device. `EXTERNAL_TOTAL_MEMORY -` The total capacity of the external memory available in the Android device. `EXTERNAL_AVAILABLE_MEMORY -` The remaining capacity of the external memory available in the Android device. `OPERATOR -` The name of the cellular network operator used with the Android device. `DEVICE_INFO -` General information with regard to the device. `GCM_TOKEN` - The Android Platform is configured to communicate via Local Polling. However, the Google Cloud Messaging service (GCM) token needs to be passed when the push notification service is used with the Android platform.
