This page explains how to migrate your installation-based scopes to asset scopes.
In the past, you could define installation-based scopes in Lansweeper Sites within specific roles. However, we've since transitioned to asset scopes.
Asset scopes offer improved asset management capabilities compared to installation-based scopes, as they provide more granular control of asset visibility. This transition to asset scopes also offers the flexibility to customize asset management processes based on installations and roles.
While installation-based scopes remain functional, we highly recommended to migrate to asset scopes instead to take advantage of its benefits.
Since installation-based scopes will continue to work despite being deprecated, you'll need to do a manual migration process to transition them to asset scopes.
The sequence of steps in the migration process is crucial.
Installations must first be added to a scope, before removing them from a role. Reversing the steps could result in users briefly having access to assets they shouldn't have permissions for.
In the Conditions tab,select the Installation field, the Equal to expression, and select an installation that is already assigned to the role.
Link the asset scope to a role if necessary.
