Assign profiles to groups and organizations
Assign a profile to a group or an organization. You must assign a profile before applying the policies that are configured for it.
When multiple profiles are assigned to the same group or organization and there is a conflict within the policies between the profiles, the latest assigned/applied profile has priority. Policies from multiple profiles are applied if they do not conflict with each other. If a device belongs to both a group and an organization at the same time, only group's profile is applied because group profile policies have priority.
You have to apply a profile to a group or an organization after assigning it. You must apply a profile to devices so that the profile policies can take effect. Profiles can be applied immediately or at a specific time.
Assigning to groups
To assign a profile to a group, complete the following steps:
- Navigate to Profile. You can also assign a profile from the group list by navigating to Groups and selecting a group to assign. For more information, see Apply profiles to groups.
- On the “Profile” page, click the check box for a profile that you want to assign.
- Click Assign.
- On the “Assign Profile” page, click Group.
- Click the check boxes for groups to be assigned with the selected profile.
- You can select multiple groups.
- If a group has already been assigned a profile and it is assigned to another profile, you can preview the conflicting policies from the two profiles by clicking Preview Policy.
- Click Assign & Apply to assign and apply the profile to the selected groups at the same time.
- Click Assign to assign the profile to the selected groups and not to apply the profile now.
- In the “Assign Profile” window, click OK.
Assigning to organizations
To assign a profile to an organization, complete the following steps:
- Navigate to Profile. You can also assign a profile from the organization list by navigating to Organization and selecting an organization to assign. For more information, see Assign applications to organizations.
- On the “Profile” page, click the check box for a profile to be assigned.
- Click Assign.
- On the “Assign Profile” page, click Organization.
- Click the check boxes for organizations to be assigned with the selected profile.
- You can select multiple organizations.
- If an organization has already been assigned a profile and it is assigned to another profile, you can preview the conflicting policies from the two profiles by clicking Preview Policy.
- When a profile is assigned to an organization that has sub-organizations, the profile is applied to all the sub-organizations.
- If a sub-organization was not assigned a profile, the profile of the super organization is inherited, but the inherited profile can be overwritten with a new profile.
- If a sub-organization was assigned its own profile, then the profile of the super-organization is not inherited.
- Click Assign & Apply to assign and apply the profile to the selected organizations at the same time.
- Click Assign to assign the profile to the selected organizations and not apply the profile now.
- In the “Assign Profile” window, click OK.
