Add a Credential Distribution Group

Use this task to create Credential Distribution Groups for members of your organization who are permitted to distribute log in credentials to visitors.

Note

When defining Credential Distribution groups, the required details for Admin Account depend on the specific type of administrative account.

In most cases, you enter the email address associated with the Guest Management account in Account Management Settings. However, if the Guest Management account was created automatically by Self-Service SSO (and has a blue SSO badge), you must use the automatically generated saml.login user ID (such as, abcdefg12345@saml.login). This value must be obtained by the GET /users XAPI call. For more information, see the ExtremeCloud IQ XAPI Swagger or ExtremeCloud IQ API Reference.
