Hi, I’m trying to use properties like `parentId` and `deviceClass` from the device context of `ctx.device` (marked as Include full device info in context)

I used `{{jsonEncode ctx.device}}` to inspect the properties returned, but `parentId`, `deviceClass` are not included.

and my device has this properties

Include full device info in context should include all device properties, correct?

@Vander_Maziero,

Today, those values are not available within the “full device info” within the Device Context Variable. I’m going to create a ticket for you for that now.

However, would this Dashboard happen to live on a [Dashboard Page](https://docs.losant.com/experiences/views/#dashboard-pages)? If so, there may be a way to pass those values from an Experience Workflow to the Dashboard as string context variables.
