Does MobiControl support NFC enrollment for Android-Enterprise platform?

If so, what is the minimum server and device agent version needed?  Any limitation(s) on device brand or Android firmware version?   Is there any "admin app" to run on the administrator's device involved in the NFC bumping?  Any documentation on the enrollment procedure?  

If not,  is there any roadmap to support it?

I think what you're looking for is the SOTI Stage Programmer app which allows you to generate a QR Code or Provision via NFC bump from one AEDO device to another. Manually configured one Admin device with this tool and then use it to enroll the remaining devices.

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the updated information.  I wasn't aware that the latest MCstage app has already include NFC bump functionality on top of the QR-code provisioning.   I just finished some tests on a few brands - some were OK and some failed.   I'm now looking for the list of brands/models supported, or the minimum requirements on firmware version and/or other criteria for NFC bump to work.

I’ve copied a working full script below as an example:

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_LOCAL_TIME=1565250671868

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_TIME_ZONE=Europe/London

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_LEAVE_ALL_SYSTEM_APPS_ENABLED=true

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_WIFI_SECURITY_TYPE=WPA

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_WIFI_PASSWORD=wifipassword

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_PACKAGE_DOWNLOAD_LOCATION=http\://soti.net/apk/ae2

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_WIFI_SSID="wifiSSID"

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_LOCALE=en_GB

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_SIGNATURE_CHECKSUM=hn8mSNJMPcovWbnnWrb-uMpWZjNlNp-jyV_2A-Whumc\=

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_COMPONENT_NAME=net.soti.mobicontrol.androidwork/net.soti.mobicontrol.admin.DeviceAdminAdapter

android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_ADMIN_EXTRAS_BUNDLE=enrollmentId\=ABCDEF12

I've written our NFC enrollment script to a NTAG216 NFC tag as data, with the content type as application/com.android.managedprovisioning
