Shared Device - Usage for Office365

Shared device for office use.

Hi,

I have successfully deployed a Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 as a Work Managed Device recently.
The plan is that this device will be used by many different users who will end up working with their personal Office 365 / Onedrive. After logging out, they should be logged out of their personal Onedrive, etc. so that the following user cannot see the data.

Is it the right way to set up a shared device configuration, add all potential users to an AD group and then create a lockdown profile with shared-device:// as autostart?

In the video guide from Soti it says that you should set "App.login" as the icon with the program "shared-device://", this does not seem to be possible in the latest version.

I have now done it this way:

The video guide has the following option:

I only have these options:

Unfortunately, when I click on the new icon, I get the message that I should check my Internet connection.

Is my plan basically possible to achieve? Where is my error?

Android 13

Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 as Work Managed

Soti Version: 15.6.1.1048 onPrem
 

Cheers

Scroll down your drop-down-list, shared-device should be at the very bottom

Are you sure you have to enter App.Login also in the line for "Item", in your screenshot it's just the Display Name (which can be anything you want)? I would do without (in Item line).

Yes I have to add something here, thats why I added the App.login there as a test.

I also tried to add "com.microsoft.office.word". I thought it might also trigger the shared user function but I will get the "please check if your network connection is available" as well.

Then try to choose Custom and add shared-device://

Also take a look into this: https://www.soti.net/mc/help/v15.6/en/console/configurations/advancedconfigurations/shareddevice/shareddevice_login_android.html

To use MobiControl shared-device mode, AD/LDAP/Azure directory service should be configured first.  Have you done so already?

I guess everything is set up correctly, otherwise I would not be able to specify an Active Directory Group to the shared Device User Group settings, or set an user as an owner to a device.

The Active Directory is configured under Global Settings, Services, Directory

Hmm, last idea then, are you maybe using a restricted Wifi? Can you check via LTE?
