You can create different administrator roles for various responsibilities at your school, such as content manager, device manager, or help desk technician. Before setting up an administrator role, it is recommended that you determine the specific functions and responsibilities that role should have. This determines which access rights and privileges are needed for that role.

  1. In Jamf School, navigate to Organization > Administrators > Roles in the sidebar.
  2. Click Create role.
  3. Use the Create role pop-up dialog to enter a name for the role.
  4. (Optional) To allow the administrator role to be assigned to a location, select the Share with locations checkbox.
  5. Click Create.
  6. Use the Access rights payload to configure privileges for the role.
  7. Click Save.

You can view roles by navigating to Organization > Administrators > Roles in the sidebar.
