At minimum, Windows Update for Business reports requires devices to send diagnostic data at the *Required* level (previously *Basic*). For more information about what's included in different diagnostic levels, see [Diagnostics, feedback, and privacy in Windows](https://support.microsoft.com/windows/diagnostics-feedback-and-privacy-in-windows-28808a2b-a31b-dd73-dcd3-4559a5199319).

For more information about what's included in different diagnostic levels, see [Configure Windows diagnostic data in your organization](/windows/privacy/configure-windows-diagnostic-data-in-your-organization).
For some queries, such as Windows 11 eligibility reporting, Windows Update for Business reports requires devices to send diagnostic data at the following levels:
- *Optional* level for Windows 11 devices (previously *Full*)
- *Enhanced* level for Windows 10 devices
The following levels are recommended, but not required:

## Understanding update states
Updates can go though many phases from when they're initially deployed to being installed on the device. Transition from one state to another can be rapid, which makes some states less likely to be displayed in reports. The workbook can report the following high-level states for a device update: <!--8052067-->
- **Offering**: The update is being offered to the device for installation
- **Installing**: The update is in the process of being installed on the device
- **Installed**: The update has been installed on the device
- **Cancelled**: The update was cancelled from the [deployment service](deployment-service-overview.md) before it was installed
- **Uninstalled**: The update was uninstalled from the device by either an admin or a user
- **OnHold**: The update was put on hold from the [deployment service](deployment-service-overview.md) before it was installed
- **Unknown**: This state occurs when there's a record for the device in the [UCClient](wufb-reports-schema-ucclient.md) table, but there isn't a record for the specific update for the specific device in the [UCClientUpdateStatus](wufb-reports-schema-ucclientupdatestatus.md) table.

# Manage driver and firmware updates (public preview)
> [!IMPORTANT]
> **This feature will be rolled out when Intune's rollout is complete**. This feature is in **public preview**. The feature is being actively developed, and might not be complete. You can test and use these features in production environments and provide feedback.
You can manage and control your driver and firmware updates with Windows Autopatch. You can choose to receive driver and firmware updates automatically, or self-manage the deployment.
> [!TIP]
> Windows Autopatch's driver and firmware update management is based on [Intunes driver and firmware update management](/mem/intune/protect/windows-driver-updates-overview). You can use **both** Intune and Windows Autopatch to manage your driver and firmware updates.
## Automatic and Self-managed modes
Switching the toggle between Automatic and Self-managed modes creates driver profiles on a per-ring basis within your tenant.
| Modes | Description |
| ----- | -----|
| Automatic | We recommend using **Automatic** mode.<p>Automatic mode (default) is recommended for organizations with standard Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) devices where no recent driver or hardware issues have occurred due to Windows Updates. Automatic mode ensures the most secure drivers are installed using Autopatch deployment ring rollout.</p> |
| Self-managed | When you use the the **Self-managed** mode for drivers and firmware, no drivers are installed in your environment without your explicit approval. You can still use Intune to choose specific drivers and deploy them on a ring-by-ring basis.<p>Self-managed mode turns off Windows Autopatchs automatic driver deployment. Instead, the Administrator controls the driver deployment.<p>The Administrator selects the individual driver within an Intune driver update profile. Then, Autopatch creates an Intune driver update profile per deployment ring. Drivers can vary between deployment rings.</p><p>The drivers listed for selection represent only the drivers needed for the targeted clients, which are the Autopatch rings. Therefore, the drivers offered may vary between rings depending on the variety of device hardware in an organization.</p> |
## Set driver and firmware updates to Automatic or Self-managed mode
**To set driver and firmware updates to Automatic or Self-managed mode:**
1. Go to the [Microsoft Intune admin center](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2109431).
1. Navigate to **Devices** > **Windows Autopatch** > **Release management** > **Release settings**.
1. In the **Windows Driver Updates** section, read and accept the agreement.
1. Select either **Automatic** or **Self-managed**.
## View driver and firmware policies created by Windows Autopatch
**To view driver and firmware policies created by Windows Autopatch:**
1. Go to the [Microsoft Intune admin center](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2109431).
1. Navigate to **Devices** > **Driver updates for Windows 10 and later**.
1. Windows Autopatch creates four policies. The policy names begin with **Windows Autopatch Driver Update Policy** and end with the name of the ring to which they're targeted in brackets. For example, **Windows Autopatch Driver Update Policy [Test]**.
The `CreateDriverUpdatePolicy` is created for the Test, First, Fast, and Broad deployment rings. The policy settings are defined in the following table:
| Policy name | DisplayName | Description | Approval Type | DeploymentDeferralInDays |
| ----- | ----- | ----- | ----- | ----- |
| `CreateDriverUpdatePolicy` | Windows Autopatch Driver Update policy [Test/First/Fast/Broad] | Driver Update Policy for device Test/First/Fast/Broad group | Automatic | `0` |
> [!NOTE]
> In public preview, the DeploymentDeferralInDays setting is set to `0` for all deployment rings.
## Feedback and support
If you need support with this feature, and have enrolled your tenant into Windows Autopatch, [submit a support request](../operate/windows-autopatch-support-request.md).

Unlike Windows update, the Office CDN doesn't make the update available to all devices at once.

Windows Autopatch doesn't control the order in which updates are offered to devices across your estate. After the update downloads, there's a seven day [update deadline](/deployoffice/configure-update-settings-microsoft-365-apps) that specifies how long the user has until the user must apply the update.
