Editing Labels

In Device & Users > Labels, you can edit:

• The name and description of any existing label.

• The type of a label (manual or filter).

  You can change a label’s type only if it is not assigned to any devices.

• The criteria of a filter label.

If you change a label’s type from manual to filter, you can use the query builder to define the filter.

However, if you are changing a filter label’s criteria, only manual editing is available to edit the criteria. The query builder is not available.

You can determine the string for the criteria by first navigating to Devices & Users > Devices and clicking Advanced Search. Use the user interface to create the criteria string and then copy it for pasting into the Edit Label dialog.

You cannot edit the criteria of pre-defined labels such as All-SmartPhones, Android, iOS, Company-Owned, and so on.

Procedure 

1. From the Admin Portal, go to Device & Users > Labels.
2. Select a label.
3. Click Actions > Edit Label.

   IMPORTANT: You can change a label’s type only if it is not assigned to any devices.

6. For filter labels, edit the criteria.

   If the type was already filter, manually edit the criteria.

   If you changed the type to filter, either use the query builder or manually edit the filter.
