The availability of different MDM related APIs changes with different versions of Android.

Separately, different device manufacturers (such as Samsung) may make alternative APIs available or may make different methods available to interact with native Android APIs. Again, this changes with different Android versions and different manufacturer API versions.

Whilst ‘Android Enterprise’ enrolment modes have received more native MDM capabilities in recent times, the ‘Device Administrator’ enrolment modes have seen capabilities somewhat reduced under different scenarios (as described on this article).

When Enrolling iPad using Enrollment Invitation wrong profile is downloaded and enrollment fails

Citrix Leave a comment

It is recommended to use the iOS URL (platform = iOS).

Safari on iPad devices, now reports itself as a macOS device.

Citrix Endpoint Management site has no option to redirect to the correct iOS site, before the browser will redirect to the right web page. As a result, the wrong profile is downloaded.

When enrolling an iPadOS device using the iOS URL (i.e. https://serverFQDN:8443/instanceName/ios/otae), the following message will be displayed. Please ignore the message and enter credentials to enroll

Note:Enrolling using OTA URL is not supported anymore for iPadOS and iOS (only for macOS)
