Can you set default passwords in ASM for students.

I believe if you use a 4/6 digit code you can choose the temporary password. We set it to something simple as it asks them to change it when they first sign in.

We didn't use alphanumeric because you can't sign into your apple ID unless you get a verification code from IT so is pretty secure to use a 6 digit code.

Where do you set the passcode? Apple School Manager or JAMF?

Interesting thought RLR!
If you right click more than 1 user in Jamf you can change the password policy to 4/6 digits but you can't set a default 4/6 digit passcode :(

Are you talking about iPad passcode or the Managed Apple ID Passcode? The managed Apple ID Passcode is set in the school.apple.com interface. You can search and select multiple users and set their Managed Apple ID Passcode to a specific code. You have to do this each time a new user is created as you have to create a new sign in for newly created users.

The student ASM login/pass is the same way the students get into the iPads.
I have attached an image of what I see when you select multiple users. Do you see anything different? There is nothing I can see to set a specific passcode for them all.

Select Create next to the Sign-In option. You can then set the passcode for those accounts.

Yep, what Ktrojano said. Create new Sign-In's and you can set the passcode. This will only work if the policy is set to 4/6 digit passcode and won't work if it set to alphanumeric.

Thanks for the replies. There is no option. I've set this to a 6 digit passcode policy
I click create sign ins and this is what I see - send as PDF or email the sign in. There is no option to create a passcode.
i wonder if this is because this was an SFTP import?

I would verify that all of the accounts you've selected are indeed on a 4 or 6 digit(passcode) password policy. If they are you should see this:

In your students.csv file do you have a password_policy column? Do you populate this column with 4 or 6? This will set the password policy on the student accounts to either 4 or 6 digits.

Thanks fellow Jamfions. I see this must be an issue our end if you can do it. We may have to SFTP things again. Much appreciated for the support!
