A device profile contains the components, capabilities, and metadata (ID, name, ownership, etc.) that define a SmartThings device. Capabilities define the features of the device, and capabilities are grouped into components.

Cloud-connected devices using a SmartApp Connector require a device profile.

You can create a device profile in Developer Workspace and associate it with an integration. You can then communicate to the device by referring to its device profile. You can see more information here.
