Hello @MDeva.1​ ,

Can you explain what you mean by receiving different types of data?

As well, can you describe the use case?

Otherwise, take a look at this video. It may be helpful.

hello @MDeva.1​ 

You can use the USB CDC class which allows you to send arbitrary data.

What is difference between customs hid and Hid class​

[Walid ZRELLI]

In the STM32Cube and STM32_USB_Device_Library context, the HID class device provides a fixed mouse/keyboard applications, where the HID report is predefined.

Otherwise, the Custom HID option allows you to have an application-defined report descriptor, and to use both IN and OUT endpoints. Both are limited by their fixed max endpoint size and period.
