Access certain part of SOTI MobiControl app by default when in lockdown mode

MR

Hi all,

A bit of a strange and niche request here but I am hoping that I can access the "Content Library" part of the SOTI MobiControl app directly from a lockdown mode on Android. Very similar to how you would launch the notifications part of the application by using action://net.sotimobicontrol.VIEW_NOTIFICATIONS - we use this for notifications and it works very well.

My reason for this is we want to issue this device to drivers as part of our fleet and although we aren't concerned about them accessing the rest of the SOTI MobiControl app, the Content Library is the most useful part of it for them so i'd like to make it the "default" view when they launch it via the lockdown mode if possible.

I know it's unlikely and I have opened a case with SOTI as well, they are investigating but asked me to post here incase anyone had done similar.

Thanks,

Mike

Hello Mike,

I've had a look at the intents for specifically "Content Library" section for you by using my Samsung device, but it looks like the intent is same for Content Library and "main page" of the MobiControl application. So, if accessing the below section (main page) is okay for you, you can design it on your lockdown screen.

Otherwise, you can verify whether the intent is same for your device for both the "main_page" and the "Content library". You open Content library section and send identify_activity legacy script and check out the device log and you can repeat for main_page and compare the result.

If it's same Current activity name that you see as a result of these 2 actions, then I'm not sure it's possible to access directly to Content Library category. I hope it helps. Thank you.
