Per this link:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/iot-dps/concepts-service

Under Individual enrollment:

The registration ID in an individual enrollment is alphanumeric, lowercase, and may contain hyphens.

Under Registration ID:

The registration ID is alphanumeric, case insensitive, and may contain special characters including colon, period, underscore and hyphen.

Why is one more restrictive than the other?
