Managed Configurations for PTV Navigator G2 - Android Enterprise Devices

Introduction

Managed Configurations is a feature in the Android Enterprise ecosystem that allows IT administrators to control the settings of applications installed on Android devices. This feature enables system administrators using MDM systems to remotely manage app configurations on devices, allowing customization based on the organization's needs.

What is the structure of the file?

Its a json

Supported configurations?

Starting with version 1.1.0 of PTV Navigator G2, we support license key provisioning via managed configuration.

  • license key

How can I use it?

To modify a preference value, a special configuration file known as the Managed Configurations JSON is used. This file contains the application settings that can be adjusted and distributed to the client devices. When the configuration is sent to the device, the new settings are applied automatically.

Only when the application starts, it automatically applies the key.

How to Change the preference Using Windows?

To change the any preference on an Android Enterprise device using Windows, follow these steps:

  1. Create a Managed Configurations JSON File: Prepare a JSON file that includes the desired configuration. This file should contain the every key with the new value to be used:

e.g. 

{
    "license_key": "YOUR_NEW_LICENSE_KEY"
}

  1. Use an MDM Tool: Upload the JSON file to a Mobile Device Management (MDM) tool used by your organization.

  2. Distribute the Managed Configurations: Once the JSON file is uploaded to the MDM tool, assign the configuration to the targeted devices. The new configuration will be pushed to the devices and applied automatically.

  3. Verify the Configurations Update: After distributing the Managed Configurations, ensure that the PTV Navigator G2 is using the new license key when it starts.
