Things to note: - Android Enterprise Enrollment - Android Work Managed Profile - Gsuite Emails Was wondering if this possible. We have fleet workers have a phone and we usually have them download the "Google Apps Device Policy" which we have deployed already onto the phone. We use a generic gmail login to setup the phone. There is a limit to how many devices can be using one gmail account. A new device being setup will kick out one of our fleet members and we have them sign into their work emails and authenticate so they can get updates via playstore and use google maps. The issue seems to be on work managed devices doesn't prompt for "Android Device Policy" which is what google is fully transitioning to in January 2021. Is it possible to have both fully work managed device also have a work profile or should all fleet members be switched to "Basic" mobile management for all fleet members. What is the best approach?
Hello, I really appreciate if any of you could help me with the following issue. We have a use case for Android Enterprise Work Profile in which we need an app that uses bluetooth in the work profile. The app is deployed sucessfully, but it is not able to scan bluetooth devices. The app works fine if it is install out of the profile. We have tested serveral apps in several devices (Android 8,9,10,11 from different manufactures), indeed I developed a small app tha only scans devices and shows a list, but the issue is the same with all apps. We have also tested the BasicManagedProfile app that Google sugests to test apps in work profiles. The problem is the same. https://developer.android.com/work/managed-profiles So the question is: Does the Work Profle allow apps to scan and use bluetooth services? Is this a limitation of work profile? I appreciate your comments.
Hi, I would like to know more about using SOTI to deploy mass iPadOS... The iPadOS size is around 5.5GB, it brings concern as we have to update 90 units of iPad in one go... If we are to issue "Update OS" command via SOTI, the following questions come to mind (sorry I cannot test now as I cannot afford to update any of my iPad's OS now): 1) Will SOTI spread the update across a specific time frame to avoid congesting the whole bandwidth? 2) When issuing the command, will it force the iPad to update? Or will it prompt a box and ask for user's consent first? 3) We have set to defer OS update for 90 days, after that period, will iPad be forced to update regardless of its current status? 4) Is there a difference between "scan for OS update" and "update OS"? Thank you for your time.
Heywe had an older version 14.x running and now we like to create a new VM with Soti 15.4 So no Update of the old version, it will be a clean new setup.

I need to use the API : PUT /devices/{deviceId}/customAttributes/{customAttributeId} This API requires the CustomAttribute ID as a parameter and I don't know where to find it. I tested the GET /customattributes API to get the ID, but it's not part of the response. I also poked around in the DataBase, but I don't see a table name that allows me to direct my search to the CustomAttributes to retrieve the IDs. Has anyone experienced this problem?

Hi, Would it be possible to run an .sh file from the Linux Lockdown? The question rises mainly because we have an application that starts by running an .sh file, but being able to start scripts from Lockdown, could also come in handy in other situations. Our current environment is 15.4.1 Thanks in advance for any help.
Is there a possibility to display device specific Soti Custom variables within the KIOSK lock page (HTML page) ?
Hi, I have been trying to prevent Mobicontrol agent from upgrading but so far have been unsuccessful. We're deploying AE Mobicontrol agent v14.5.5 via QRCode and placing into a lockdown profile. Add rules where the agent download points towards both google play and local server have not prevented the upgrade. So far restrictions implemented include Device Agent Upgrade Enabled = No Device group - Advanced Config - Agents and Plugin Upgrade Settings - Deselect all options (wifi, cellular etc) Max agent compatibility version in db = 14.5.5 The closest I have got is placing Mobicontrol as a managed google play application and setting the MGP play update policy to Never Update. However, a notification that the update is available is still presented to the user, who can navigate to google play store and manually update the agent. Unfortunately, I cannot turn off all notifications, due to customer requirement for other app notifications and a need for activity suppression lockdown. Further, Never update means other MGP applications will no longer auto-update. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Adam
