Hi,

I dont ask for rename device name or device group.

 

Mayby better question. Is possible set displayName to OS enviroment in the same way as UDID for iOS?

 

So then is possible to pick up it from test script like: echo "UDID set to ${IOS_UDID}".

 

Now I must generate test zip for each device with its name.

BITBAR_DEVICE_NAME="Apple_iPhone_12_Pro_Max_A2411_14.1"

    ah ok, so your running cloud side on set of devices...

     

    Have you tried storing the output from the below command in String array and retrieve the required information

    (from Stack Overflow) 

     

    For android -
    adb -s " + deviceID + " shell getprop ro.build.version.release
    For iOS -
    instruments -s devices

     

    you could either drop to the command line to run those commands, or if there's a library (e.g. python-adb ) you can do it within the script.
