How to Use Get Platform Devices Prompt to Search for Android
Under the Device query section, I selected the prompt “Get Platform devices.” This query includes a required field called Platform, which needs to be specified before running it. By choosing Android as the platform, the query is set up to filter and retrieve all Android devices across the tenant.
- With this, the final query becomes “Get Android devices,” providing IT admins with a clear and targeted view of all enrolled Android endpoints.

The results show 0 items for this query. This query is meant to filter and collect details about devices managed by Intune, based on their platform type. When devices are found, the results are shown in an easy-to-read format with details like device name, device ID, Entra device ID, management method, ownership type, compliance status, platform, and the last time the device was active.
What is the Next Step to Consider
Reviewing the query results helps IT admins verify compliance with security policies, check if devices are managed by the correct agent, and track the last seen date to spot inactive, lost, or unused devices. The below table and screenshots gives more details.
