Yes David, i wanted to know the Device type after provisioning.

But now I can see that i don't need that information anyway.

To re-phrase the question, the provisioning will work irrespective of Device A or Device B. You would like to know at the provisioner what device type you are provisioning ? Is my understanding correct ?

It is possible to find the device type based on the UUID you have used in the device so the provisioning process can know the device before the process starts. This may be useful in certain applications and UX.

Thank you for the answer Ketil.

I figured out that it is only necessary to know the deice after the configuration process, after which i have gotten the composition data.

Hi,

It is not possible to get data about the device before or during the provisioning process.

The how to build your network documentation might be helpful.
