Issue
An administrator needs the full operating-system build number for a Windows device — including the revision, in the form 26200.7462 — to confirm that a specific update was applied. The build number shown on the device's summary does not include the revision.
Environment
- Automox (current agent release)
- Windows devices; Device Details in the console
Overview
The console reports the operating-system build in two places, at two levels of detail:
- The device Summary shows the OS version in the form
10.0.26200— major, minor, and build only. It does not include the revision. - The device System inventory shows the individual version components, including the revision, which is what completes the
26200.7462-style build number.
Resolution
- Open Devices and select the target device.
- For the short build, review the OS version on the Summary (Device Snapshot). This is reported as
10.0.<build(for example10.0.26200), without the revision. - For the full build including the revision, open the device's System inventory and locate the Operating System section. Combine Ver Build (for example
26200) with Ver Revision (for example7462) to get26200.7462. Prefix the major and minor components for the fully qualified10.0.26200.7462. - To retrieve the value programmatically, query the device (
GET /servers/{id}); theos_versionfield returns major.minor.build. For the revision, read the Operating System fields from the device inventory, or export them with a Data Extract for many devices at once.
Notes
- The Summary OS version stops at the build and omits the revision; the revision is only shown in the System inventory. Reviewing the Summary alone returns
10.0.26200, not10.0.26200.7462. - Do not read the device's Kernel Version as the OS build. On some Windows 11 feature-update configurations the kernel build and the displayed OS build differ, so the kernel value can be misleading. Use the Operating System section's Ver Build and Ver Revision.
