GrantBradley Hi Grant, there are some cmdlets for removing from Azure AD- https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/msonline/remove-msoldevice?view=azureadps-1.0

Is that what you were thinking of?

hi Ethan

i am already aware of that currently it is handy for removing one device but i am looking to remove in bulk if that is possible as devices have built over time and had not been removed

Thanks

Grant

Hi GrantBradley,

You could do something like this in PowerShell to delete stale devices from AAD:

$dt = [datetime]’2018/12/12’
Get-MsolDevice -All -LogonTimeBefore $dt | select-object -Property DeviceId | foreach {$_.DeviceID} | foreach {$_.Guid} | Remove-MsolDevice -Force

This gets and deletes all devices with a timestamp older than specific date. You can see more information in the doc I provided earlier.
