Overview

You link the Druva Mobile App for Android devices with MaaS360 Server. The MaaS360 Server will directly add the latest Druva Mobile App for Android devices.

You can then configure the Druva Mobile App  with the required policies and push the Druva Mobile App to the Android devices of users. You can easily push updated configuration policies from MaaS360 to the Druva Mobile App on the Android device. This ensures that the Druva Mobile App is updated without user intervention.

  • You have a MaaS360 administrator account.

    To configure the policies on Druva Mobile App , you must have a mass deployment token. The mass deployment token allows you to distribute and silently activate the Druva Mobile App on multiple Android devices.

    If you have an inSync On-Premises account, for more information on how you can generate a mass deployment token, see Generate a mass deployment token.
    If you have a inSync Cloud account, for more information on how you can generate a mass deployment token, see Generate a mass deployment token.

    You must specify allowOpenIn as Yes, and then specify which apps you want the files to open in. You cannot specify allowOpenIn as Yes, and then keep this field blank; this will, in turn, show an error message. You must specify a value here.

    To allow the file to open in any app, do not enter this key. 

    If you specify allowOpenIn as No, then the file will not open in any app except in Druva Mobile App . 

    Note: The key values are case sensitive.
