# Providers

> Learn how to find out information about the providers that Seam supports.

Seam maintains a list of supported providers that you can access using the [List Device Providers](/api/devices/list_device_providers) endpoint. For a provider, this endpoint returns a subset of the following information, depending on the capabilities of the provider's devices:

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th width="273">Property</th>
      <th width="101.33333333333331">Type</th>
