What's changing
We're giving admins more granular control over how mobile device management privileges are delegated. Specifically, admins can be assigned privileges for specific organisational units (OUs). This adds yet another layer of security by ensuring that access is scoped to the necessary OUs only. This feature is available as an open beta, which means you can use it without enrolling in a specific beta programme.
Creating a custom role, which is assignable at the OU level.
Example experience for an admin with OU level permissions
