# Devices

View **Devices** in the system presents all devices in the IT infrastructure that are not computers with the eAgenta service installed (e.g., monitors, printers, USB drives, phones, keyboards, mice). The system enables automatic detection of some devices through the service, such as flash drives or monitors connected to the computer, as well as manual addition of devices that are not detected automatically.

In this view, the user can manage all devices that do not have the agent service installed.

***

## **Adding Devices**

The system offers several methods for adding new devices.

### **Manual Device Addition**

The user can manually add a device using the button **Add New**. If the device type is not available in the system (e.g., cash registers), the user can create a new device type.

### **Automatic Device Detection**

The system can automatically detect the connection of USB storage devices (e.g., flash drives) on computers with the eAgenta service installed. For this function to work, you must create and deploy the appropriate DLP policy using the trigger **USB Device Connection**.

The configuration procedure is described in the section [**USB Device Connection**](/eacloud-docs-en/features/data-loss-prevention/dlp-policies-and-rules/triggers/usb-device-connection.md).

{% hint style="danger" %}
Installing eAgenta alone does not enable detection of connected USB devices - deploying the appropriate DLP policy is required.
{% endhint %}

### **Device Import**

Devices can be imported from external files (e.g., CSV, Excel). A detailed description of this process is available in the documentation section [Data Import](broken://pages/b7dbed7b486da1d1736559663d07a7985deda13c).

{% hint style="info" %}
**\[Device Import]**&#x57;e are working on this functionality. We will announce its release in the changelog as soon as it becomes available.
{% endhint %}

## **Device Management** <a href="#toc553195338" id="toc553195338"></a>

The user can select one or more devices and perform bulk actions such as:

* Editing device information
* Assigning the device to another organizational structure
* Removing the device from the system

These actions are available under the edit icon.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://eaclouddoc.eauditor.eu/eacloud-docs-en/features/it-infrastructure/devices.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
