MD-102 Manage and maintain devices Practice Question
Exhibit
Get-IntuneManagedDevice -Filter "(operatingSystem eq 'Windows') and (lastSyncDateTime lt '2025-01-01T00:00:00Z')"
Refer to the exhibit. A Microsoft Graph PowerShell cmdlet retrieves devices. What is the purpose of this query?
⚠ Common exam trap
Test-takers frequently confuse `approximateLastSignInDateTime` with `enrolledDateTime`, leading them to incorrectly select Option C, which refers to enrollment date instead of last sync date.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
To find Windows devices that have not synced since before January 1, 2025
The query uses Get-MgDevice with a filter on approximateLastSignInDateTime being less than 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z. This filter retrieves devices whose last approximate sign-in occurred before January 1, 2025, indicating they have not synced since that date. The -and operator with deviceId -ne $null ensures only actual devices (not null device IDs) are returned. Option D correctly identifies this as finding devices that have not synced since before January 1, 2025.
