A Managed Configuration allows IT administrators to remotely configure supported Android apps through CapaOne Mobile Manager — without user interaction. This guide walks through the steps to set one up.
Prerequisites
Before creating a Managed Configuration, ensure you have:
- Access to CapaOne Mobile Manager
- A Google Play app that supports Managed Configuration (not all apps do)
Step 1: Open the Android Applications Section
- Go to capaone.com
- Navigate to Android → Application
Step 2: Select the App You Want to Configure
- Find the Google Play app that requires a Managed Configuration
- Click the three-dot menu next to the app
- Select Edit Managed Configuration
Note: Managed Configuration is only available for apps where the developer supports it. If the option is unavailable, the application lacks Managed Configuration support.
Step 3: Create or Edit the Managed Configuration
- Modify the available configuration fields according to your requirements
- Click Save to apply the Managed Configuration
The configuration can be linked to individual endpoints or groups.
Enrollment
No enrollment-specific steps are required. The configuration automatically applies once the associated app is installed and linked to the device or group.
Maintenance and Best Practices
- Verify app Managed Configuration support before planning policies
- Review developer documentation for complex configuration schemas
- Test configurations on a single Android device before widespread deployment
- Revisit configurations following app updates for newly available options
