Hi, FahadAhmed,
Thank you for posting your question here.
If you're leveraging endpoint dlp and have onboarded devices to Microsoft Purview, you will be able to tell a specific device to sync with purview to receive it's assigned policies, but only if the device is reporting as being out of sync. To do this, you can:
- login to compliance.microsoft.com
- Select "Settings" from the menu on the left
- Select "Device onboarding"
- Find and select any out of sync device
