Moving devices to another administration group

As a response action, you can move a device to another administration group of Open Single Management Platform. This may be required when the analysis of an alert or incident shows that the protection level of the device is low. When you move a device to another administration group, the group policies and tasks are applied to the device.

The administration group to which you move the device must belong to the same tenant as the device.

You can move a device to another administration group in one of the following ways:

You can also configure the response action to run automatically when creating or editing a playbook.

To move a device to another administration group, you must have one of the following XDR roles: Main administrator, Tenant administrator, Junior analyst, Tier 1 analyst, Tier 2 analyst.

It might take up to 15 minutes to launch a response action due to the synchronization interval between the managed device and Administration Server.
