Standard profiles can be assigned to devices directly or indirectly via directories. A device can receive its settings from a number of directly or indirectly assigned profiles. During the assignment process, the profile settings overwrite the settings configured directly on the device. See Effectiveness of Settings.

If you use Shared Workplace, you have the option of assigning profiles to users. Profiles assigned to users have a higher priority than profiles assigned to devices. See Order of Effectiveness of Profiles in IGEL Shared Workplace and Prioritization of Profiles in the IGEL UMS.

Template profiles are profiles where one or more settings are set via variables. These values are determined dynamically. Standard and priority profiles can thus be used and combined even more flexibly. See the Template Profiles in the IGEL UMS chapter.

If you deploy Shared Workplace, notice that template profiles cannot be used.

Priority profiles can overwrite the settings of standard profiles and have their own authorizations, see Priority Profiles in the IGEL UMS. The order of effectiveness is exactly the opposite of what it is for the standard profiles. See Order of Effectiveness of Priority Profiles.
