4. Click the Apply to selected devices button.

To assign credentials to multiple devices in bulk:

1. Select two or more devices on the My Network map or the collapsible device grid.
2. Right-click on your selection to launch the device management actions menu.
3. Select Edit Devices > Assign Credentials to launch the Bulk Field Change dialog.
4. Select the credential(s) you want to apply to the selected devices.
5. Click Ok.
