Web-based registration for Android devices

You can instruct users to register with MobileIron Core through the web. Users enter the URL of the server with forward slash “go” appended to the end of the URL, which takes them through a guided web-based registration process. Device users must still install Mobile@Work to complete the registration process.

Procedure 

  1. Make sure the user has a user record (local or LDAP) available in MobileIron. See “Managing Users” in Getting Started with MobileIron Core.
  2. Instruct the user on downloading the app and registering. The user will need the following information:

    • user name
    • password and/or Registration PIN
    • server (and the port number, if you did not use the default port number for TLS)
  3. Instruct the user to register with the MobileIron Core server at the following URL:

    https://<fully-qualified domain name for Core>/go

    The following pages are displayed, instructing the device user to download Mobile@Work for Android from Google Play:

     

  4. Instruct the user to tap the Google play button so as to download Mobile@Work.
  5. Instruct the user to follow the on-screen instructions in Mobile@Work, entering the user credentials and server name in the space provided.
