How Can I Get the IOS Device Id from the User Account?

Where can I find the IOS Device Id in the user account? I can't see it in the player linked account page. There is also no API to get it in the code.

Correct, the Device ID for iOS and Android is not currently returned in the player account info - originally, this was because there was some question as to whether this data should be considered PII, but we're re-evaluating that now. If you don't mind, what's the scenario you have in mind which would require being able to retrieve it?

Thank you for the clarification. I wanted to show the" Unlink" button that allow players unlink their device from their Playfab account so they can link another device to it. However, since I can't get the information for the Device Id, I don't know whether the player's Playfab account is already linked to a device. I don't want to show the button if the player don't have device linked to their Playfab account.
