Managing devices and groups

Find devices in the settings list by name or tag, and create, rename, color-code, and delete device groups to organize your fleet.

The device list on the left of Devices and settings is where you choose the device to configure and keep your fleet organized. As fleets grow, search, tags, and groups make it fast to find the right device and to apply settings consistently.

Finding a device

• Search by name: Type in the search box to filter the list to matching device labels.

• Filter by tag: Narrow the list to devices carrying a selected tag.

• Browse by group: Groups expand and collapse, and their state is remembered between sessions.

Managing groups

Groups let you organize devices by department, function, site, or any scheme that fits your fleet.

1

Create a group

Add a new group and give it a name (up to 60 characters) and a color so it stands out in the list.

2

Rename or recolor

Edit an existing group's name (up to 60 characters) or change its color at any time.

3

Delete a group

Remove a group you no longer need. If the group still contains devices, you're prompted to move them to another group first so no device is left ungrouped.

Tags and groups are complementary: a device belongs to one group but can carry multiple tags. Use groups for primary organization and tags for cross-cutting filters.
