Android managed app settings payload

[vivekh]

Hi, we are trying to develop a custom android application in which we can set policies from the meraki mdm console.

I've read the following documentation https://documentation.meraki.com/SM/Profiles_and_Settings/Using_the_Managed_App_Settings_Payload

Wanted to know if there is a tutorial out there for integrating this into android applications.

Regards

I haven't seen tutorials like this on the Cisco Meraki side. You would probably have better luck on a developer site. The Meraki side should be generic. It is just delivering a settins payload.

Maybe @hody.crouch might have some more insight.

If I'm reading this correctly, you want to set tuples in Meraki SM and access those key/value pairs from your custom Android application.

Your application will need to use the RestrictionsManager object. Don't forget to check for changes when your app launches or resumes. You can also use intents to know when the configuration changes while your app is running.

Further discussion is really outside of the scope of this forum.
