To install certificates you need to assign a device administrator password. This can be done by adding an authentication configuration to your profile.

There is a native Certificate Profile option?

Hi Matt,

thank you for reply. 

What you mean with nativ Option? Profile for every device? I  have this certificate on which way we import them to the devices is complet open. It is for all devices the same.

I guess what Matt means is that you can use MobiControl to create a Profile with a Configuration Item "Certificates" in order to import what you you need to all the devices.

One benefit from this is that you can create profiles for each model and filter this on model type or similar. The handling of certificates is much easier then utilizing scripts to perform the activities needed.

Yes exactly! I would start with trying to use the natively exposed Profile option and if it doesnt do what you expect then you can try something more complex with scripting or even Zebra MX. 

Hello Matt hello Joakim,

thank you for this hint with the config. I will try during the week.

Thank you for your help

Hello,

i try to create the profile. But i got the message that "Multiple certificate PFX files not supported". We use an certificate.p7b file.

I google and search for supported formats but i cant find. Can you tell me which format can/must be used ?

Guenniko

You may need to first confirm what formats are even supported by the Android OS before determining if you can distribute and install the certificate from an EMM. I am not familiar with the .p7b format and I am thinking it may need to be converted to something supported like a .crt with a tool like openSSL. 

Are you able to manually install the .p7b cert on the device from the security menu of settings? If not then I don't think you'll be able to push it from SOTI in that format either. 

Hi Matt,

we convert it into an cert.pem and Soti accept and read the certificate.

Now i need an additional administrator account for install it? When i add the account in the profil it works in the back or the Passphrase need to add during install?

I think i have a big backlock about the processes and structure in Soti

I will try it on next monday when im back in office

Thank you to all for the support it works.

Have a nice week
