Auto-Provision by AD Group

By far the most popular method of creating WorkSpaces is using the Auto-Provisioning (AP) Profile.

To set up an AP Profile, navigate to Configurations and then AP Profiles

Select ‘Add Profile’.

Now type in the Active Directory group, select the AWS Region for the WorkSpaces to be created, select the WorkSpaces directory, select the WorkSpaces bundle, select the AWS account number that the WorkSpaces will reside in, select the running mode and then select to enable\disable root and user volume encryption. Then press ‘Save’.

You will only be allowed to add ‘Fixed Tags’ in Profile Tags once you’ve saved the Auto-Provision profile. If you go back to edit this profile, you can then add the Fixed Tags.

If Auto-Provision is enabled, the service will poll the Active Directory groups every 15 minutes for new members.
