Delete a device for the specified customer

Applies to: Partner Center

This article explains how to delete a device that belongs to a specified customer.

Prerequisites

  • Credentials as described in Partner Center authentication. This scenario supports authentication with both standalone App and App+User credentials.

  • A customer ID (customer-tenant-id). If you don't know the customer's ID, you can look it up in Partner Center by selecting the Customers workspace, then the customer from the customer list, then Account. On the customer’s Account page, look for the Microsoft ID in the Customer Account Info section. The Microsoft ID is the same as the customer ID (customer-tenant-id).

  • The device batch identifier.

  • The device identifier.

C#

To delete a device for the specified customer:

  1. Call the IAggregatePartner.Customers.ById method with the customer identifier to retrieve an interface to operations on the customer.

  2. Call the DeviceBatches.ById method with the device batch identifier to get an interface to operations for the specified batch.

  3. Call the Devices.ById method to get an interface to operation on the specified device.

  4. Call the Delete or DeleteAsync method to delete the device from the batch.

IAggregatePartner partnerOperations;
string selectedCustomerId;
string selectedDeviceBatchId;
string selectedDeviceId;

partnerOperations.Customers.ById(selectedCustomerId).DeviceBatches.ById(selectedDeviceBatchId).Devices.ById(selectedDeviceId).Delete();
