Device Manager API
The Device Manager API is a Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD) API used to manage devices
and their configurations. A device is a resource, and device configurations are metadata about the
device.
In addition to the standard
CreateDevice(),
GetDevice(), and
UpdateDevice() methods to manage devices, we also have a method,
CreateSignedDevice(), to create devices that need to be installed by a CPI from a
JWT-encoded payload.

These methods facilitate managing devices and their related information within the system.\n"]]
