How to Find Devices Which Need Licenses

To find devices which require Workspace Edition (WE) or Endpoint Management (EMP) licenses, you can use a view with Device License as the search criterion.

When you have created the view that serves your purpose, you can export the Unit IDs selected by the view; see Creating a Unit ID List for IGEL OS.
