About this task
You can also configure the Settings Manager app using a profile configuration.
To configure the Settings Manager app using an XML configuration:
Procedure

In SOTI MobiControl there are two ways to send this XML configuration file to your devices.
- Create a File Sync Policy that pushes the XML configuration file to your devices.
- Create a package and use a profile to send the XML configuration file to your devices.
- Send the XML configuration file to this location on your devices: /data/data/net.soti.mobicontrol.<OEM>/app_exposed/ .
-
Use the following script command to apply the Settings Manager configurations to the device:
sendinfo net.soti.settingsmanager.RECEIVE_COMMAND import_config </CONFIG_FILE_NAME>
.See Using Script Commands for more information.

The Settings Manager app reads and applies the settings in the XML configuration file when the device enters lockdown mode.
