Policies are the core framework within the Addigy platform for managing deployments to groups of devices and can be Created, Configured, Deployed, and Deleted.
Adding Items to a Policy
- Navigate to the Policies page and select the policy you'd like to add Catalog item(s) to.
-
Select the 'Assets' tab where the item you'd like to add is located. In this example, we'll select the Software category:
By default, all Catalog items will be marked as 'Not in policy'. - Select the checkbox next to the item you'd like to add to the policy. Then, select 'Add/Remove' > 'Add to policy'.
- A confirmation message will appear. Select Confirm to add the item(s) to the policy.
Removing Items from a Policy
- Navigate to the Policies page and select the policy you'd like to remove Catalog item(s) from.
- Select the 'Assets' tab where the item you'd like to remove is located.
- Select the checkbox next to the item you'd like to remove from the policy. Then, select 'Add/Remove' > 'Remove from policy'.
- A confirmation message will appear. Select Confirm to remove the item(s) from the policy.
Additional Information
- After adding an item to or removing an item from a Policy, it will be deployed to or removed from the devices assigned to that Policy during the next regular policy deployment (which occurs automatically about every 30 minutes). See How to Deploy a Policy for more information.
- After adding an item to a Policy, it's Status will show as 'In Policy'.
- If an item is assigned to a Parent Policy, it's Status will show as 'In parent' in Child Policies.
