Assign an app to a user
If you require control of apps at the user level, you can assign apps to user accounts. When you assign an app to a user, the app is sent to any devices that the user has activated for that device type and the app is listed in the work app catalog on the device.
If the same app is assigned to a user group and directly to a user account, the settings (for example, whether the app is required) for the app assigned directly to the user account are applied.
Before you begin:
- Add the app to the available app list
- Optionally, add the apps to an app group
- On the menu bar, click Users and Devices.
- Search for a user account.
- In the search results, click the name of a user account.
- In the Group assigned and user assigned apps section, click the + icon.
- Select the check box beside the apps or app group that you want to assign to the user account.
- Click Next.
-
In the Disposition
drop-down list for the app, perform one of the following actions:
- To require users to follow the actions defined for apps in the compliance profile assigned to them, select Required. This option is not available for BlackBerry apps.
- To permit users to install and remove the app, select
Optional.Note: If the same app is assigned to a user account and to the user group that the user belongs to, the disposition of the app assigned to the user account takes precedence.
- Click Assign.
