User Management

The SureIdP feature under Identity & Access Management in SureMDM allows administrators to securely manage users under verified domains. Administrators can create new users, invite them, manage their device access, and enforce security policies like MFA.
Also, users can be synced with SureIdP from external Identity Providers.

Steps to add users for the created domain

  1. If the domain is verified immediately, click Next to proceed. If verification is completed later, navigate to SureMDM Web Console → Settings → Account Settings → Identity & Access Management → SureIdP → Users to add users.

  2. In the Users tab, select the required Domain from the dropdown.

  3. Click Add User.

  4. In the Create New User popup, choose the method to add users:

    • Manually – Enter user details one-by-one.
    • Import CSV – Bulk import users via CSV.
  5. (a) If Manually option is selected, then provide the below information with respect to User Details and Authentication Settings and click Save.

    5.1 User Details

FieldDescription
EmailEnter the user’s email address.
First NameEnter the first name of the user.
Last NameEnter the last name of the user.
Phone NumberEnter the user’s contact number along with the country code.
Maximum Device CountSet the maximum number of devices this user can enroll under their account.
Local User AccountSpecify the name of the current local user account on the system to be taken over on the device. SureIdP will use this account name to match and integrate the user's existing profile. SureIdP can take over existing local user accounts while preserving user data and settings, ensuring a seamless transition to centralized identity management. Ensure the "Enable Takeover of Existing User Account" setting is enabled in the OS login profile for this feature to function.
User GroupAssign the user to a predefined group.
Send InviteChoose whether to send an invitation email to the user immediately or at a later time.
Invite Now
Invite Later

Supported apps include Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, and FreeOTP. Once set up, users must enter this second factor at login for added security.

    • The device binding system also streamlines IT operations by simplifying device reassignment when employees change roles or leave the organization. When reassigning devices, SureIdP maintains appropriate device settings while updating user information, reducing the administrative burden of employee transitions.
