Lockdown intent package activity shortcut

Solved

Hello,

how to create Lockdown shortcut for other than Main package activity?

for example on Zebra Devices there is DWDemo "app" that is just another activity of DataWedge but if I try to add it as "intent:#Intent;action=com.symbol.datawedge.DWDemoActivity;end" to Lockdown I get only "Activity not found" toast message.

Since the activity you mentioned is a launchable activity,  there is no need to use intent to start it.  Just using

  launch://com.symbol.datawedge/com.symbol.datawedge.DWDemoActivity

as your kiosk item should give what you need.

I can't recall if the SOTI Lockdown blocks the activity by default but for your specific scenario I would think you would be able to just pull the scan trigger and scan a barcode while on the lockdown screen and have it automatically launch into DWDemo. Thats the behavior when using EHS instead of SOTI Lockdown at least so I might be mistaken re. the Soti Lockdown.
