Applying Enhanced User Permissions

About this task

This level of permission setting is only supported on some SOTI MobiControl features. See Enhanced User Permissions for a list of features where it is supported.

To set granular permissions on features within SOTI MobiControl:

Procedure

  1. Open the User Permissions dialog box.
    This varies by feature but generally after saving a feature such as a new profile or custom data item, an Add Permissions button appears the next time you edit it. Click the Add/Edit Permissions button to open the User Permissions dialog box. See the image below for some of the various ways to access the User Permissions dialog box.

  2. Search for the user or user group whose permissions you want to set. Once selected, the user or user group appears under the heading for their user type: SOTI MobiControl Users / SOTI MobiControl Groups / IdP Users/Groups.
    Note: The user who created the configuration and their associated user groups automatically have read/write permissions. SOTI MobiControl administrators also receive read/write permissions.
  3. From the Permissions dropdown list, choose a permissions level to apply to the selected user or user group.
    • Choose Read and Write to allow the selected user or user group to edit the configuration.
    • Choose Read to allow the selected user or user group to see but not edit the configuration.
    • Choose None to hide this configuration entirely from the selected user or user group.
    Note: The configuration is hidden from users who are not explicitly added to the list.
  4. Click Save.
