SOTI Surf has the option to clear cookies and search history on start.

You can also disable website caching..

Are these not enough for you? Or is there another reason to clear the cache of it like that?

my customer is using a web aplication requiring to let CACHE active.

But due to performance, the web application developpers recommend to clear cache 2 or 3 times a day.

the clea cookie & history do not clear cache, correct ?

Ah i see. Well then these settings wont solve it.

But you can create a Task Scheduler. That will execute your script command every 2h for example.

Also for clearing cache i always use another command. I am not familiar with your command you found.

wipeapplication net.soti.surf

You can try both commands and see which one suits you more or works better.

You can find the task scheduler when you create a android profile.

There you can create a new task and set your needed settings. Later you can choose the script
you want to get executed. You can test this on your test device first if it works for you well.

You can actually link to a .cmd script that is resident on the device from the lockdown menu. Using this principal you could create a script that when run first clears the app cache, and then launches the given app with the start command. This way when the users tap on the shortcut link they think they are just tapping on an app but they are really executing a script that is clearing cache before launching the app. This way it is something that happens every time the user launches the app rather than it being something run every 2 hours, which could happen while the app is in use, which might be undesirable.
