The WqlQueryDiscoveryType complex type, in Configuration Manager, describes discovery information for settings discovered from WMI.

A WQL query is formed based on the child properties. The query is formed as:

SELECT Property from Class WHERE Where

This resulting string must be a valid WQL query string.

<xs:complexType name="WqlQueryDiscoveryType">
