When using external Mobile Device Management (MDM) tools, you have the possibility to set certain configuration keys and values in the MDM provider’s management console and these can be pushed to a deployed app.

Prerequisite: Distribute app via an MDM vendor that supports “Managed Configuration”

Different configuration logon profile set-up options are:

1. Pre-set a default system URL if this URL is provided by MDM tool and the field value itself is not empty.
2. Pre-set user name if the field is provided by MDM tool and field value itself is not empty.
3. Pre-set remember password option if the field is set to YES by MDM tool.

User has to navigate to new logon profile screen manually - when screen opens the default values are applied.

Default values will not be applied for consecutive openings of new logon profile screen.

Currently the ManagedAppConfig.plist has following example entries:

systemurl String https://my000000.crm.ondemand.com

username String mobilityUserAlias

rememberpassword Boolean YES
