Get EID for watchOS

Hello everybody,

with my last question and your help we got the documentation how to read the EID with iOS14+ and it's working. Now we need to know how we can read the EID also for Apple Watches and to see in the MDM that it really is a Apple Watch. Is there any API available for watchOS? Here it looks like the API is only available on iOS, macOS and tvOS.

Thank you in advance for the information I can get in this case.

That MDM response is only available on iOS devices. You'll note that the help text presented with the key denotes that it for iOS 14 or later. The sidebar OS version applies to the entire feature of the DeviceInformation query, if a key is only available on a specific platform it will be noted in the help text for that key.

In terms of getting the EID of Watch, currently watchOS does not support enrolling MDM nor are there MDM queries to retrieve data about a paired watch. Please file a feature request through Feedback Assistant with more information about your intended use case.
