Enrolling Device as COPE - Cannot locate device

I am looking to enrol my Android Pixel 7a's with a Corporate Personal (COPE) enrollment policy.    After enrolling and testing functionality, i noted I could'nt locate the device remotely, with it always timing out.  Looking at the Location permissions on the Pixel 7a itself, I can see that the SOTI Mobicontrol app has not been granted the location permission for the version of it with the little briefcase (im guessing the work profile version of it).  If i manually grant it permissions, I am able to locate the device on the mobicontrol console.   Surely this permissions should be granted automatically, or be requested as a part of the enrolment, which it is not.  It isnt even an option to request this during setup.


Anyone else come across this?

Hi Brain,
 
Thanks for posting on SOTI Pulse. regarding this query, I would like to suggest you. 

can you please try to push the script (enable_location ) to the device and check whether it enables the permission or not?
