Global Templates

You must be an Enterprise Super Admin to manage global templates.

Restriction

You can use a template for up to 500 sub-estates. You can only have a combined total of 5,000 devices for these sub-estates.

You can create templates that consist of settings and base policies. You can apply these templates to groups of your sub-estates.

You can do as follows:

  • Apply the same settings to all sub-estates in a group.
  • Stop sub-estates from changing your settings.
  • Update templates and push changes to sub-estates.

The Global Templates page shows your templates, the number of sub-estates they apply to, when the template was last pushed and their push status. See Template.

You can filter the templates by searching for sub-estates.

Click a template name to see the sub-estates, global settings and base policies associated with it.

To push a template to sub-estates, select the template and click Push. Pushing a template can take a few minutes.

Warning

Pushing a global template overwrites existing base policies. If you remove the global template, the base policies revert to their recommended or default settings.
