Learn how to manually assign devices to your company using Host assignment links. Admins can easily assign devices by generating a Host assignment link and sharing it with remote users. Once the remote user opens the link, installs the Host, and confirms the assignment, the device will be seamlessly added to the All managed devices section. With this method, admins can streamline their device management process.
