A device identity is an object in Microsoft Entra ID. This device object is similar to users, groups, or applications. A device identity gives administrators information they can use when making access or configuration decisions.

Devices displayed in Microsoft Entra Devices blade

There are three ways to get a device identity:

  • Microsoft Entra registration
  • Microsoft Entra join
  • Microsoft Entra hybrid join

Device identities are a prerequisite for scenarios like device-based Conditional Access policies and Mobile Device Management with the Microsoft Intune family of products.
