I'm trying to build an app for MDM using Android Management API. But I can't find an API to create a device id. How to get Device id for using Android Management API?

    https://developers.google.com/android/management/reference/rest/v1/enterprises.devices You can add any number of `systemProperties` you want. However, the difficult part is knowing your Android Management Device name. Until Android 9, you can cross reference between the management data and your app using the serial number. After android 9, there's no easy way to cross reference. – heX Apr 14 '20 at 03:56

The deviceId is generated upon successful enrollment. You can list the devices using Devices.list after enrollment. The deviceId is stored in the name field in the form enterprises/{enterpriseId}/devices/{deviceId} you can check the Device resource for more info.

    You need to have special permissions to do this. You can check this link for more info. https://developer.android.com/training/articles/user-data-ids – Kevin Jan 21 '21 at 21:50
