Managing Devices - Associate Profile | Admin Guide - Zoho Directory

Associate profile

You can create one or more profiles and associate them to the required devices or groups. Once you associate a profile to the device, all restrictions and policies configured within that profile will be applied to that device. For example, if the profile had a passcode policy configured, the users can only access their devices using passcodes.
Notes
Note: When multiple profiles are associated to the device, profile will be applied to that device based on the profile priority.

 The steps to associate a profile vary between the three User Interface versions supported in Zoho One. Select the UI version you use from the tabs below and proceed with the steps that follow:
