Configure MANAGED SETTINGS for NinjaOne MDM

MANAGED SETTINGS can be set up quickly and easily through NinjaOne MDM.

Prerequisites:

  • MDM is enabled
  • Android Enterprise is bound (a connection is present)
  • A policy exists, or will be created for this guide
  • Requirements are met
  • A licence key, if desired
Avoid blocking the Settings application

You'll note in the below configuration steps, nowhere is it mentioned to import or attempt to configure the native Settings application. For the Kiosk use case, blocking Settings (com.android.settings) through the install type of Blocked will prevent MANAGED SETTINGS from working.

It is not necessary. Native Settings needs not be present in the application list at all.

Add MANAGED SETTINGS to the policy

#

Head to Applications from the left-hand policy navigation.

Open Add apps and select Play Store.

Select an appropriate Assignment type (install type). I have selected Required for Setup, however Force Installed will work also. A type that prevents uninstallation is ideal.

Switch over to Managed Configuration. Provide a configuration name, set the appropriate configs, and click Save. Click Close.
