SOTI Hub

Use the SOTI Hub profile configuration to make your enterprise content available to device users using the SOTI Hub app. Do this when:

You can also manage how device users use the app.

Note:
  • It is possible to assign more than one 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 you set an Inactivity Timeout on one configuration but not the other, the inactivity timeout applies to the device.
  • Every time you reassign a SOTI Hub configuration to devices, device users become logged out while the SOTI Hub app applies the changes.
Note: This profile configuration is not supported for AMAPI-enrolled devices.

Application Settings

Allow User to Save Password Enable 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 also remembers the username.

Note: This option controls log-in behavior for the SOTI Hub app and the enterprise repositories.
Content Refresh Interval Specify how frequent (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 when SOTI Hub is idle for a duration defined in minutes.
Time Specify how long (in minutes) the app can be inactive before the SOTI Hub app logs the device user out. Inactive is when the screen is off, or the user has not interacted with the app.
Cancel Transfers on Inactivity Timeout Cancel any file transfers that are in progress when the Inactivity Timeout period expires. SOTI MobiControl selects this option by default. If it is not set, the Inactivity Timeout period begins after all file transfers are complete.

This option is not available when you disable Inactivity Timeout.

Create New Content Enable device users to create new files (documents, spreadsheets, slideshows) and upload images within the SOTI Hub editor and then upload them to the content repository. SOTI Hub saves new content locally and you can access them from the My Files section of the SOTI Hub app. Device users must manually upload new content to the content repository. See Creating Content Within SOTI Hub for more information.
Enable Copy and Paste Enable device users to copy and paste content from local files saved in the SOTI Hub app. You can access the files from the My Files section of the SOTI Hub app. Device users must manually upload the local content to the content repository.

Enable Copy and Paste is only available when you enable Create new content.
Enable File Share Enable device users to share local files in the SOTI Hub app with other device applications. You can access the files are from the My Files section of the SOTI Hub app. Device users must manually upload the local content to the content repository.

Enable File Share is only available when you enable Create new content.
Enable File Print Enable device users to print local files in the SOTI Hub app. You can access the files from the My Files section of the SOTI Hub app. Device users must manually upload the local content to the content repository.

Enable File Print is only available when you enable Create new content.
Hub Device Report Enable device users to view real-time and historical SOTI Hub device usage data. Based on the Data Sync Frequency period configured, the SOTI Hub Device Agent sends the collected data to the SOTI MobiControl Server using the communication protocol. The collected data is then stored in the SOTI MobiControl database. SOTI MobiControl administrators can generate the reports under the Global Reports section to validate all the downloaded, accessed, or read files along with the associated device, file, and repository information. See Accessing Real-Time and Historical SOTI Hub Device Usage Data for more information.
