Managed Configurations

Managed configurations allow the organization's IT admin to remotely specify settings for apps. This capability is particularly useful for organization-approved apps deployed to a work profile.

The way in which the configurations are defined depends on the MDM/EMM used. Usually there is an editor where available configurations can be set and transmitted to linked devices. For example, well known providers are Airwatch, iFrame, Mobile Iron, Google Play, Miradore, Mobile Device Manager Plus, Relution Enterprise Mobility Management Suite, ...

The configuration is splitted into multible bundles to simplify the readability and creation of these managed configurations. The following table contains the available bundles. Each bundle is descriped in its separate section.
