MD-102 Manage and maintain devices Practice Question
Exhibit
{
"DeviceFilter": {
"Name": "Windows 10 Pro devices",
"Rule": "(device.osVersion -startsWith \"10.0.1904\") and (device.deviceType -eq \"Windows\") and (device.skuFamily -eq \"Professional\")"
}
}Refer to the exhibit. You are creating a device filter in Microsoft Intune to target a policy to Windows 10 Pro devices. The filter should only apply to devices running OS build 1904x (20H1 or later). However, some devices with build 1904x and SKU Professional are not receiving the policy. What is the most likely reason?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often assume property values in Intune filters are case-insensitive, leading them to overlook the exact casing requirement for `device.skuFamily`, and instead focus on unrelated syntax or enrollment requirements.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
The device.skuFamily property value is case-sensitive and may not match 'Professional'.
The `device.skuFamily` property in Microsoft Intune is case-sensitive. When creating a device filter rule, the value 'Professional' must exactly match the case of the SKU family string returned by the device. If the actual SKU family is reported as 'Professional' with a different casing (e.g., 'professional' or 'PROFESSIONAL'), the filter will not match, causing the policy not to apply to those devices.
