I would like to give limited access to one of our staff to the Mobile Devices inventory and Mobile apps.

The following settings are current selected for this particular limited account, but the limited user sees the computer inventory when he/she select "Computers" and click "Search Computers" on the "Computer Inventory" window

Account>Privileges: * View Inventory Tab

Account>API Privileges * Read>Buildings, Categories, Departments, Mobile Devices, Mobile Device Applications, Mobile Device Groups

Account>Notifications --- none selected

Is it possible to show only Mobile Devices and Mobile Device Apps under "Computer Inventory"

Do you have any tips how to set up a limited access Casper user?

Thank you in advance.

Olimpia

    No, currently there is no way to give a user access to Inventory, but limit them to only seeing the Mobile Devices subsections. By checking the "View Inventory tab" they will be able to see inventory for Computers as well. What you can restrict is whether they can perform, view and save advanced searches, view details, add computers and a few other items listed under the "JSS - Inventory Tab" for the Privileges.
    By the way, the API settings you checked have no effect on the JSS views. That is only for external access into the API underpinnings of your JSS. For example, if you wanted to have a script query your JSS for some information to extract.
