Still trouble with Credential Distribution Groups

Still trouble with Credential Distribution Groups

I have Credential Distribution Groups with one Guest Management User.

 

A guest register himself and i have only these Options afaik.

 

CWP -> Email approval selected

The guest register himself

-> the visited user gets an email and can approve the guest. Untill then the guest cant surf.

 

Or

 

CWP -> Email approval not selected

The guest register himself

-> visited user gets his password right away and can acces immediately.

 

 

In both cases the guest management user doesnt see the registered users when logged into the Management GUI ( and also cant deactivate them) He is only able to see users he manually added. Is this supposed to be like this?

 

Isnt there a scenario where:

 

Guest register himself

-> Guest Management user gets an Email to approve the registered guest. And also see them in the gui so he is able to disable or remove them.

 

or atleast

 

-> when the Email approval is selected in the CWP a possibility to limit the users who can approve the guest.

 

We dont want every employee to be able to approve guests but we also dont want that only people with admin rights are able to manage the guests account properly.

For now i solved it by forcing the field to be uneditable, already filled with one email address and beeing hidden via HTML

Yes please request that too. Can you Tell me how long such a request takes to be realized(if at all) We plan to roll out in April. This is such a Basic function that im sure ill have to explain to management why it is not be configured like that. It would be nice to have some changes till then.

I've submitted that feature request for you to allow Guest Managers to see users they didn't create themselves but are in the user groups they have access to.

 

Unfortunately we aren't able to get more granular than domain for the email approval process. I can submit a feature request to have more specific settings there as well if you'd like.

If i turn the employee approval on, the field „person you are visiting“ is on by default. And the E-Mail address i Write there is the one getting the Mail to approve the guest. As a restriction i can only add the Domain. How can i make the guest manager to be the one recieving the approval Mail?

 

and yes please submit that for me thanks
