Hi all, 

 

Lookign through posts I can see this has been asked a lot however, have we ever found a clear cache app script for a samsung tablet, I've got an app that's holding 4GB of data in the cache and needs clearing weekly

Hi Tim,

Yes, you can use the legacy script  clearappcache [BundleID].

You can also clear the app data and cache using wipeapplication [BundleID].

If I were you, I'd use a task scheduler profile that runs this every week on the devices automatically.

Here's the legacy script documentation for 2026.1, but in the top-right corner you can also select whichever version the portal you're running is on to ensure it's supported: https://pulse.soti.net/support/soti-MobiControl/help/?V=2026.1&T=scriptcmds/reference/androidplus_enterprise_do

Thanks,

This is also available as JS (depending on which agent version you are). I made a function out of it:

//0 = cache, 1 = cache & data 
CleanApp('com.android.chrome', 1); 
mobicontrol.agent.checkIn(); 

function CleanApp(BundleID, mode) {
     if (mode == 0) {
         mobicontrol.app.clearCache(BundleID);
     } else if (mode == 1) {
         mobicontrol.app.clearCache(BundleID);
         mobicontrol.app.clearData(BundleID);
     } 
}
