I have enrolled a fully managed device using the Android Management API. However, when I delete the device from my enterprise using the enterprise.device.delete API, it factory resets the data. I want to preserve the user's data instead of performing a factory reset. I also tried creating a personal use device, but then it didn't allow me to launch an app in KIOSK mode. I want both features: running an app in KIOSK mode and preserving the data when I delete the device. I'm not sure how to achieve this.

Hey,
You can't. Severing the tie to an enterprise instructs the device to wipe. There's really no scenario where putting the device in a locked down state and then disowning it makes sense long-term.
If you're just trying to set up a device in a certain way, try app pinning on an unmanaged device, or build DPC functionality into the kiosk itself, and have it set itself to DO.

So what do I have to do if I don't want to factory reset the device? Can I do it without creating my own DPC and use google DPC for this?

I can't do this with a Personal Owned Device ?
I have seen that an application is using its own DPC app to remove the device without rebooting and also able to lock the device. I want to achieve the same thing, but I'm not sure what to do. Can you guide me? I've been stuck on this for weeks.
