Is there a possibility to get automatically the new device in an update ring if you change the device for a user?

If your Autopatch groups are configured using dynamic Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) device groups, then:
- New devices assigned to a user will be automatically discovered by Windows Autopatch.
- The service runs a device discovery process hourly to detect new devices added to the Entra group. Once discovered, the device undergoes eligibility checks (e.g., Intune enrollment, OS version, connectivity).
- If eligible, the device is automatically registered and assigned to the appropriate deployment ring within the Autopatch group.
- Use dynamic device-based Entra ID groups for Autopatch group membership.
- Ensure your dynamic membership rules are based on device attributes (e.g., device name, OS version, ownership).
