Configuring an AppConnect container policy

This task is only required:

•If you did not select Authorize for Apps without an AppConnect container policy, in the AppConnect Global Policy.

•If you want to configure a different set of data loss prevention policies for Docs@Work.

The AppConnect container policy authorizes an AppConnect app and specifies the data loss prevention settings. The container policy overrides the corresponding settings in the AppConnect Global Policy. Separate AppConnect container policies are required for each operating system (Android or iOS).

Ensure that only one Docs@Work AppConnect container policy is applied to a device.

Procedure

  1. In the Admin Portal, go to Policy & Configs > Configurations.
  2. Click Add New > AppConnect > Container Policy.
  3. Enter a name for the policy. For example, enter Docs@Work container policy for iOS. For example, enter Docs@Work container policy for Android.
  4. Enter a description for the policy.
  5. In the Application field, select Docs@Work.Select Docs@Work only if the app is available in the app catalog as a recommended app. If not, you must enter the app bundle ID.
  6. Select the data loss prevention settings.

    Item

    Description

    Exempt from AppConnect passcode policy

    iOS only

    Select this option if you want to allow the device user to use Docs@Work without entering the AppConnect passcode or Touch ID.

    When you select this option, situations still occur when the device user must enter the AppConnect passcode or Touch ID. For example, when the user first launches Docs@Work, the user is prompted to authenticate.

    iOS Data Loss Prevention

    Allow Print

    This setting allows an AppConnect app to use print capabilities if the app supports them.

    However, Docs@Work does not allow users to print documents from within Docs@Work, even if you select this option.

    Allow Copy/Paste To

    Select Allow Copy/Paste To if you want the device user to be able to copy content from Docs@Work to other apps.

    When you select this option, then select either:

    • All apps: Select All apps if you want the device user to be able to copy content from Docs@Work and paste it into any other app.
    • AppConnect apps: Select AppConnect apps if you want the device user to be able to copy content from Docs@Work and paste it only into other AppConnect apps.

    Allow Open In

    Select Allow Open In if you want Docs@Work to be allowed to use the Open In (document interaction) feature.

    Select one of these options:

    • All apps: Select All apps if you want Docs@Work to be able to send documents to any other app.
    • AppConnect apps: Select AppConnect apps to allow Docs@Work to send documents to only other AppConnect apps.
    • Whitelist: Select Whitelist if you want Docs@Work to be able to send documents only to the apps that you specify.

    Enter the bundle ID of each app, one per line, or in a semi-colon delimited list. For example: com.myAppCo.myApp1

    com.myAppCo.myApp2;com.myAppCo.myApp3

    The bundle IDs that you enter are case sensitive.
