Assign devices to profile

Last updated May 18th, 2026

Once a profile is created in Knox Configure, it must be associated with your devices for the configurations to take effect. There are two main methods of associating a profile with your device:

  • You can assign devices to your profile from the Profiles page.
  • You can assign a profile to your devices from the Devices page

This page describes how to assign devices to your profile from the Profiles page. See Assign profile to devices for the other method.

This procedure only applies to assigning Setup or Dynamic edition profiles to devices. You can’t assign Accessory edition profiles.
