SOTI Hub

Use the SOTI Hub profile configuration to make your enterprise content accessible to device users via the SOTI Hub app. You do this when:

You can also manage how device users use the app.

Note:
  • It is possible to assign multiple SOTI Hub profile configurations to the same device. If there is a conflict between the settings of different configurations, the most restrictive settings apply. For example, if an Inactivity Timeout is set on one configuration but not the other, the inactivity timeout applies for the device.
  • Every time a SOTI Hub configuration is reassigned to devices, device users are logged out while the SOTI Hub app applies the changes.

Application Settings

Allow User to Save Password Allow the device user to save a password for the login screen.

If you have set a Prefill Username (but not the Prefill Password - see Content Repository Settings below), the application will also remember the username.

Note: This option controls log in behavior for both the SOTI Hub app and the enterprise repositories.
Content Refresh Interval Specify how frequently (in minutes) the SOTI Hub app contacts the content repository server and synchronizes any changes to the content on the SOTI Hub app.
Enable Login Select to force the app to display a login page for LDAP credentials.

This option requires an active link to an Enterprise Resource Gateway.
Inactivity Timeout Enable to configure application behavior if SOTI Hub has been idle for a defined length of time. If enabled, you must specify a time in minutes.
Time Specify how long (in minutes) the app can be inactive (i.e. the screen is off, or the user has not interacted with the app etc.) before the device user is logged out of the SOTI Hub app.
Cancel Transfers on Inactivity Timeout Cancel any file transfers that are in progress when the Inactivity Timeout period expires. This option is selected by default. If it is not set, the Inactivity Timeout period begins only after all file transfers are completed.

This option is not available when Inactivity Timeout is disabled.
Create New Content Allow device users to create new files (documents, spreadsheets, slideshows) and upload images within the SOTI Hub editor and upload them to the content repository. New content is saved locally and is accessible from the My Files section of the SOTI Hub app. Device users must upload the new content to the content repository separately. See Creating Content Within SOTI Hub for more information.
Enable Copy and Paste Allow device users to copy and paste content from files saved in the SOTI Hub app. These files are saved locally on the device and are accessible from the My Files section of the SOTI Hub app. Device users must upload the local content to the content repository separately.

Enable Copy and Paste is only available when Create new content is enabled.
Enable File Share Allow device users to share files stored locally in the SOTI Hub app with other applications on their device. These files are saved locally on the device and accessible from the My Files section of the SOTI Hub app. Device users must upload the local content to the content repository separately.

Enable File Share is only available when Create new content is enabled.
Enable File Print Allow device users to print files stored locally in the SOTI Hub app. These files are saved locally on the device and are accessible from the My Files section of the SOTI Hub app. Device users must upload the local content to the content repository separately.

Enable File Print is only available when Create new content is enabled.
