Secondary Account Configuration

These keys are to configure Elevate24 to create a secondary temporary account on device instead of elevating the primary account.

Temporary Secondary Account

  • Availability: Premium
  • Type: Boolean
  • Default: false

Will create a temporary account instead of Elevating the primary account. A temporary password will also be supplied upon elevation.

xml
<key>userElevateAdmin</key>
<true/>

Use current username as admin

  • Availability: Premium
  • Type: Boolean
  • Default: false

If userElevateAdmin Key is set to true and this key is also set as true, the temporary account will use the current logged in users username as part of the account naming. For example, Joe.Bloggs-adm

xml
<key>useCurrentUserAsAdmin</key>
<true/>

Standard username as admin

  • Availability: Premium
  • Type: String
  • Default: false

If useCurrentUserAdmin is set to false, this key allows the ability to create a temporary admin account with a standard name.

TIP

This is more useful if you require setting automatic permission changes. However, please do so at your own risk.

xml
<key>adminUserName</key>
<string>adminName</string>

  • Type: String
  • Default: false

xml
<key>PasswordUppercase</key>
<integer>5</integer>
xml
<key>PasswordLowercase</key>
<integer>5</integer>
