Overview

Some tasks on a MacBook require administrative privileges. To ensure security while providing flexibility, our Admin On-Demand system allows end-users to temporarily gain admin rights for approved actions.

This guide explains how to request admin privileges using Mosyle Manager.


Requesting Admin Privileges (End-User Instructions)

To temporarily gain admin rights:

  1. Launch the Mosyle Manager application.

  2. Click Self-Service in the main dashboard.

  3. From the left-hand menu, select Admin On-Demand.

  4. Click Request Admin Now.

  5. Enter a justification explaining why you need admin access.

  6. Click Continue.

  7. Review the Attention Notice, then click Continue again.

  8. A confirmation message will appear:
    “You have been granted admin rights for 5 minutes.”

⚠️ After 5 minutes, admin rights will automatically be removed to maintain security compliance.
