Bulk activation

The Enclave management console (EMC) provides a way to bulk activate agents using activation codes. This is useful for registering multiple agents at once, especially in larger deployments. The process involves creating an activation code, deploying the agent, activating it with the code, and then approving the activation request in the EMC.

Step 1: Create an activation code in the Enclave management console (EMC)

Navigate to Settings > Activation requests in the EMC. Click Create activation code and fill in the necessary information. Fill out the form and click Create. It can be useful to create multiple activation codes for different groups of agents for easier identification in the approval process.

Step 2: Deploy the agent

Deploy the agent to your fleet using your preferred method. You can use the agent getting started documentation to begin. If you are using an MDM solution, we can provide you with necessary scripts to deploy the agent.

Step 3: Activate the agent

Using the activation code you created in the EMC, you can activate the agent using the following command:

enclave auth activate --code <code>

Alternatively, you can use the GUI to use an activation code by following prompts on the log in screen.

Step 4: Approve the activation request

Navigate to Settings > Activation requests in the EMC. You will see a list of activation requests. Click on the request you want to approve and click Approve. The agent will now be registered and you can view the status of the agent in the EMC. Please note that once an agent is approved, it can take up to 10 minutes for the agent the appear active in the EMC.
