Note: There are 4 ways you can assign a profile to a device:

  • Click 'Users' > 'User List' > click a username > 'Manage Profiles' > 'Add Profiles'

2. Assign the profile to the device itself.

  • Click 'Devices' > 'Device List' > click a device name > 'Manage Profiles' > 'Add Profiles'

3. Assign a profile to a device group. Make the device a member of the group.

  • Click 'Devices' > 'Device List' > 'Group Management' tab > click a group name > 'Manage Profiles'

4. Assign a profile to a user group. Make the user (device owner) a member of the group.

  • Click 'Users' > 'User Groups' > click a group name > 'Manage Profiles' / 'Associated Devices'

Removing a profile as described in this section will only remove profiles which arrived on the device via method # 1 above.


The profile may remain on the device if it was (also) deployed via methods 2, 3 or 4 above.
