Device Management and Access Control in ControlUp

Posted on April 8, 2026

A user asked about setting values for devices other than Groups and Tags. Another user suggested adding a Note to the device and using the Notes column to filter. A third user mentioned using Tags and Groups to manage devices and mentioned creating a new Role for a specific team and using RBAC settings to limit their access.


Read the entire ‘Device Management and Access Control in ControlUp’ thread below:

Other than Groups and Tags, are there any other values that can be set on a Device? For example, if I wanted to designate a technician for a device or an employee or department, can I do this?


Hi Paul,

in my case i did that by adding a "Note" to the Device. After that you can show the column "Notes" and filter after your Notes.


Hey

Sorry im going to mention Tags and Groups

but what i have done in my fleet

We have one /a team that only supports small amount of devices , so i tagged those devices with "small" and then created a new Role

add the engineers (technician /s) to that role and then in the RBAC settings i selected the tag

Thus if they log in , they can only see those devices and not any other.

Hope it helps.
