Using the User Directory

Information about various actions you can take on the User Directory page.

All users that are created in MaaS360® are displayed on the User Directory page. From the List view, you can take the following actions on users: filter, sort, search, delete, or export.

Add Device: Sends an enrollment request to add a device for the user. Change Policy: Assigns a Persona policy. Policy assignments to user groups take precedence over individual user policy assignment. Reactivate: Restores the user account to an active state. This option is displayed for inactive user accounts only. Change Password: Generates a new password manually. This option is displayed if the User Password Settings is set to During User Account Creation (Manually Set User Password). Reset Password: Sends a password reset link to the user's email ID so the user can reset the password without administrator intervention. When the user clicks the Reset link in the email, the user is directed to the change password screen to set a new password. The reset password link is active for 24 hours from the time the link is generated after which the link becomes invalid. When a new link is generated, the old reset password link becomes invalid. Release App Licenses: Revokes the license of apps that are purchased through the Apple Volume Purchase Program (VPP). Unlock Account: Unlocks the user account if the account is locked. If the user enters the wrong login password more than five times consecutively, the user account is locked for security reasons. The user also receives a notification message that the account is locked and to contact the administrator to unlock the account. Deactivate: Temporarily deactivates the user account. Delete User: Permanently deletes users with inactive devices. You cannot delete users with active devices. History: Tracks the complete history of actions that are taken on the user account.

g. Column Actions	Choose from the following actions for columns: Customize Columns: By default, the username, full name, domain, email address, status, user source, and last update date columns are displayed. Choose to customize columns based on the user details that you want to display. Additional columns that are available are phone, location, authentication type, user identifier, logon hours (in UTC), and password expiration date. User Source: Defines whether the user source is Active Directory (AD), ASM, Azure AD, LDAP, or MaaS360 directory user. User Identifier: An identifier that uniquely represents the user. Password Expiry Date: The date that the user password is set to expire. The user password expiration date is set to 90 days from the last time that the user changed the password. A schedule of email alerts is sent to users at intervals of 30, 15, 7, 3, 2, or 1 day to remind them that their password is about to expire. This email includes a link that the user can use to reset their password. Note: If the user wants to set the password expiration to never, contact the customer support. The user must follow two conditions for requesting the unlimited password expiry: Users that were created before the request cannot have unlimited password expiry, only the users created after the request are eligible. If users created before the request also require unlimited password expiry, then the users must reset the password. Reset Filters: For each column that is displayed, you can apply filters to sort user details. When you click Reset Filters, all filters that are applied on the columns are removed. Export: Exports the current columns that are displayed on the User Directory page as a CSV file.
