Request body

In the request body, supply a JSON representation for the macOSCustomConfiguration object.

The following table shows the properties that are required when you create the macOSCustomConfiguration.

Property	Type	Description
id	String	Key of the entity. Inherited from deviceConfiguration
lastModifiedDateTime	DateTimeOffset	DateTime the object was last modified. Inherited from deviceConfiguration
createdDateTime	DateTimeOffset	DateTime the object was created. Inherited from deviceConfiguration
description	String	Admin provided description of the Device Configuration. Inherited from deviceConfiguration
displayName	String	Admin provided name of the device configuration. Inherited from deviceConfiguration
version	Int32	Version of the device configuration. Inherited from deviceConfiguration
payloadName	String	Name that is displayed to the user.
payloadFileName	String	Payload file name (*.mobileconfig	*.xml).
payload	Binary	Payload. (UTF8 encoded byte array)

Response

If successful, this method returns a 201 Created response code and a macOSCustomConfiguration object in the response body.
