Set an activation password and send an activation email message

You can set an activation password and send a user an activation email with instructions to activate one or more devices. In on-premises environments, the email message is sent from the email address that you configured in the SMTP server settings.
Create an activation email template.
  1. In the management console, on the menu bar, click Users > Managed devices.
  2. Search for and click the name of a user account.
  3. In the Activation details section, click Set activation password.
  4. In the Activation option drop-down list, do one of the following:
    • If you want the user to activate their device with the activation profile that is currently assigned to them, select Default device activation.

    • If you want to pair an activation password with a specific activation profile, select Device activation with specified activation profile. For more information, see Allowing users to activate multiple devices with different activation types.

  5. In the Activation password drop-down list, do one of the following:
    • If you want to automatically generate a password, select Autogenerate device activation password and send email with activation instructions. When you select this option, you must select an email template to send the information to the user.
    • If you want to set an activation password for the user and, optionally, send an activation email, select Set device activation password and type a password.
  6. Optionally, to specify how long the activation password remains valid, change the activation period expiration.
  7. If you want the activation password to be valid only for one device activation, select Activation period expires after the first device is activated.
  8. In the Activation email template drop-down list, select the email template that you want to use.
  9. Click Submit.
