Actions/
What
Fields, destinations, and other actions to take once a devices is brought in
"Actions" is where you can set data for inventory fields, manually assign a DEP profile, and set destinations for the imported devices/copies (aka "clones") after a device has been enrolled.
When/Why
You would use the import actions listed above typically only when you don't have "automatic" import turned on. These actions are only preformed after everything has been saved.
How
- Select the action dropdown and choose one of the following:
- Assign Field Value - Allows you to set inventory values fields
- Then select a Device Field (like "Comment")
- Then Select a Value for that field (like "Front Desk Checkin Station")
- (Optional for string/text fields) Select "Replace" (overwrite any value the device currently has), or "Append" (add your text to the end of the value)
- Import/Move to group - Specify the group where the original device will go
- Then select the group you want the original sent to
- Create Copies in Group(s) - Specify where clones/alias/copies of the original will be created
- Then select any groups you want copies created in
- Copy in the same group - Copy your incoming devices to that of an already existing device (i.e. mirror its groups)
- Then select an existing placeholder or device
- Associate DEP Profile - Manually assign a specific DEP profile for this device
- Then select the specific DEP profile
- Assign Field Value - Allows you to set inventory values fields
If you need more than one action taken, press "Add Action" and start from 1 again
Assign Field Value can be added many times. The other Actions can only be selected once.
If you select "Import/Move to group" you can't also select "Copy in the Same Group".
Similarly, if you select "Copy in the Same Group" you can't select "Import/Move to group"
