Appspace device properties enable Location Admins to efficiently codify attributes, in order to configure, manage, or customize Appspace App-based devices. Device properties can be added directly to individual devices (device level), or in locations (location level), where devices assigned to the location will inherit the device property, allowing users to push device configurations to multiple devices quickly.

This article provides instructions to add and manage device properties on devices on the device level.

Note
For a list of all available device properties, please visit our Complete List of Device Properties (Dictionary) article.
