Permissions

As an entity admin, manage the actions other admin users can take within myViewBoard Manager. Go to the Permissions page and limit not only the commands a user can send but also which device groups a user can send commands to.

Admin users who are just starting to set up their organization are encouraged to evaluate all admin users within the organization before granting them access to Manager. This way, you can limit admin users in an organization to the devices you want them assigned to, as well as privileged actions, such as Remote Desktop or Profiles assignments, which may be misused if not properly understood.
