Creating Configuration Profiles

warning

this page is a work in progress and subject to change.

Overview

New configuration profiles can be created in different levels in the TSB hierarchy:

  • Organization level
  • Tenant level
  • Workspace level

It is important to understand that a profile created at a higher level can be used at a lower level, but not vice versa. For example, a profile created at the Organization level can be used at the Tenant and Workspace levels, but a profile created at the Tenant level cannot be used at the Organization level.

Multiple configurations

When creating a Configuration Profile, it is not required to fill in all settings. This allows for the creation of topic-specific configurations. Multiple configuration profiles can be attached to a resource, and the order in which they are attached determines the order in which they are applied.

Creating a New Profile

To create a new profile, you need to have the Administrator role assigned to your user account. This role is required to create and manage configuration profiles.

To create a new profile, follow these steps:

  1. In the left-hand menu, select the proper hierarchy level (e.g. Settings for Organization level).
  2. In the top tab bar, select the CONFIG PROFILE tab.
  3. Click on the + NEW PROFILE button. Example of creating a new profile.
  4. A popup titled Edit Profile with configuration options is displayed.
  5. Enter an ID and a short, descriptive name for the new profile. Note: The ID must be unique within the hierarchy level.
  6. Optionally, enter a more elaborate description for the profile.
  7. Optionally, enable the option Deletion protection enabled. This will prevent the profile from being deleted until the option is disabled.
