--- title: DeviceManufacturer type | Wartiva GraphQL API description: A hardware vendor that made one or more discovered Device objects in an organization. Wartiva GraphQL API reference with arguments, fields, and examples. url: https://wartiva.com/api-docs/types/device-manufacturer.html updated: 2026-10-07 --- Networks, devices, and sensors · GraphQL type # `DeviceManufacturer` type A hardware vendor that made one or more discovered [Device](https://wartiva.com/api-docs/types/device.html) objects in an organization. The device fingerprinting pipeline resolves a manufacturer most often from the IEEE OUI prefix of a device's MAC address, and also from what the device reports about itself over discovery protocols such as mDNS, UPnP, IPP, and DHCP. Manufacturers are identified by name, case-insensitively, so every device from one vendor shares a single object that lists its devices and known [DeviceModel](https://wartiva.com/api-docs/types/device-model.html) objects. ## Fields | Field Name | Description | |---|---| | `id` -
