Hi, We've just recently provisioned another large quantity of Android Enterprise devices into SOTI and our current preference is that the devices are named in the console with the companies asset ID. Normally we'd have to go through and manually use the scripting command to send the 'devrename' command with the new name to each device individually, however this is time consuming and very labour intensive to do for large quantities. Is there a way to send a bulk script to update these? Currently these devices are enrolled with their serial number as their name, so the script would contain device serial and new name as a mapping. Does anyone know if this is possible? Cheers!
I have been reading through these forums and finding a lot of help regarding API request. So far I'm able to request my API token via PS and use it for device management! I'm fairly new to using API calls in PS and I can't seem to get around renaming a device. I' almost certain the issue is with how I'm using the -Body portion of the PS code. Here is what I have so far: #ALLOWS USER INPUT OF DEVICE NAME [void][Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.VisualBasic') $title = 'Device Rename'$msg = 'Enter New Device Name:'$Input = [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::InputBox($msg, $title) $Header2 = @{}$Header2["Authorization"] = "Bearer " + $Token try{$response2 = Invoke-restmethod -ContentType "application/json" -Uri https://$MCFQDN/mobicontrol/api/devices/$DevID/actions -Method POST -Headers $Header2 -Body {\"Action\": \"Rename\",\"Name\" : \"$Input\"} }catch{$($_.Exception.Message)} As stated, I think the -Body section is where I'm failing, not sure how to convert the curl request to a body in PowerShell. Greatly appreciate any help!
How can I make a rule or run a script to name on enrollment or rename after to it's Serial Number and or asset tag. These are all Windows 10 devices.
