Settings
The organisation name and the settings that apply to every client.
Settings is in the sidebar for admins. Staff who open it see it read-only, without the Users and SSO cards.
| Card | What it does |
|---|---|
| Organisation name | Shown in the header and on reports. |
| Users | Who has access. See Users. |
| SSO | A paid add-on: people on your verified domains join on their own. See below. |
| AI account plans | The default for every client. See Account plans. |
| Agent updates | Whether Lodestar updates itself on every device. See below. |
| Panoptic support access | Let Panoptic support in. See Support access. |
| Activity | Every change made in the console. See Activity log. |
Rename the organisation
Open Settings.
Change the Organisation name and select Save.
Names can be up to 200 characters.
Agent updates
Lodestar on each Mac and Windows PC updates itself to the newest version, after checking that Panoptic signed it. Each device updates after its next daily report. Agent updates are on by default.
Switch them off if you deploy updates yourself, for example with Intune. Intune may report an install as failed once Lodestar has updated itself to a newer version.
Open Settings.
Under Agent updates, select Switch off or Switch on.
The card shows On or Off. With updates off, devices stay on the version they have. The setting applies to every client; there is no setting for one client. The activity log records each change.
See Agent updates for what happens on each device, and If an update fails. If you deploy with an MDM, see Keep Lodestar up to date.
SSO
SSO is a paid add-on. Add it on Billing first. Until then, the SSO page says SSO isn't active.
Select Manage SSO to open the SSO page. There you:
- Add your email domains and verify each one with a DNS TXT record.
- Choose the level people join at: Read-only, the default, or Staff.
- Enforce SSO, so Send sign-in code sends people on your domains to Microsoft sign-in instead.
Only your own admins see this card. See SSO for the steps.
Settings for one client
Settings for one client, such as history, are on that client's Settings tab. See Clients.
