About User Assignment

Once you set up a Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra ID or SCIM integration, users will automatically be imported into Iru Endpoint every 4 hours. Once imported, users can be assigned to devices, allowing you to view all devices assigned to a specific user. You can find more information about syncing users from Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra ID in User Directory Integration with Google Workspace and User Directory Integration with Microsoft Entra ID.

​
How It Works

User assignment allows you to associate specific users with devices, enabling better device management and tracking. When users are assigned to devices, you can view all devices for a specific user and apply user-based policies and configurations.

Considerations

  • Assigning users to devices may result in changes to profiles on the device if you’re leveraging Global Variables in any profile fields.
