    Download a data file (.csv) using javascript Solved

    Hi all, we have the problem, that we need to change an ini file and put in an number that is related to the device name. We use Zebra TC21 and MC33xx with Android 10 an 11. For the translation from device name into the number we would download an csv file with both values and read the values. Most of the script works, at the moment we are stuck in downloading a file. On the web are a lot of descriptions, but i did not find one that works. Is someone out there who has an idea to that? Best regardsJürgen

    Android Device Agent and Plugin

    Does anyone know how to create and distribute a custom Device Agent / Plugin? I didn't find anything in the documentation (https://www.soti.net/mc/help/v15.6/en/console/devices/managing/enrollment/androidplus/download_android_plugin.html) regarding custom development or requirements to be listed as a Plugin provider.

    Android Enterprise Agent 15.3.3 Issues

    I have an open ticket with SOTI, but has anyone else noticed any issues with the most recent Android Enterprise Agent release (15.3.3 build 1069)? Since that agent update in early March, I can no longer distribute internal certificates from our outbound CLA to Zebra handhelds running Android 11 devices (profile stuck on Pending). I was able to narrow down the issue to the Certificate Templates in the Certificates profile settings. And then today I just noticed that the MAC address is no longer being displayed on the MC console (showing as unknown). If the device is truly not sending the MAC address, then this is going to be a problem because we rely on it for internal Wi-Fi authentication. So far, I've been able to replicate on factory reset TC52, TC53, and TC58 devices.

    Screen Lockout Time on a Honeywell CK65 Solved

    Hi, We have a large quantity of Honeywell CK65's right now running on Android Enterprise OS version 11. I am currently trying to figure out how to set the screen timeout from 1 minute to 3 minutes without having to manually go into each device putting it into admin mode and going into the device settings to change it in the display settings. Is there a way to get this done all on Soti Mobicontrol efficiently. Previous attempts have been: 1.Entering the script Writesecuresetting –sys screen_off_timeout 180000 in a file sync rule. 2.Entering the script Writesecuresetting –sys screen_off_timeout 180000 in a legacy script on the device itself Much appreciated for any help -Gabriel

And configure the App Policies for each device type. it should be as follows:- Group1: Only 1 specific link is allowed & Apps Authorised are (MS Teams,OneDrive, M365 Apps, Camera) Group2: Only authorized apps are allowed (MS Teams,OneDrive, M365 Apps, Camera) a) Is there a way to block all URLs and allow only 1 specific URL? Like using domains or '*'? b) What would be the best practice to allow only the apps suggested above and block everything else? c) If i set System Update Policy / Installation Policy to Automatic in Profiles, will all devices get updates automatically or should i manually check for device updates from SOTI Console? d) what would be the best practice to achieve this setup/configuration? for e.g using system update policy, web filter, feature control, application run control..and app policy

    SOTI Surf, send a URL in a script

    Hi,I am trying to Script SOTI Surf to be used for the sole purpose of downloading a firmware update zip file to the device. I need to do this without any input from the user and with reliable download manager.Is it possible to send Surf a URL via a script, something like sendinfo net.soti.action.surf URL http://www.google.com I'd need the file to downloaded overnight when the device isn't being used and for Surf to be closed afterwards. So far I've whitelisted Surf in my Kiosk, without a launch icon (our users don't normally have access to a browser, so Surf itself is in kiosk mode also) and have set the URL as the homepage. It can be launched by a start net.soti.surf script but it shows a plain white, confusing, screen whilst the download is occuring in the background - a bad user experience.
