Adding in-house iOS AppConnect apps to the App Catalog

Applicable derived credential providers and device platforms

Derived credential providers	Any
Device platforms	iOS

Any in-house iOS AppConnect app can use certificates, and therefore certificates from a derived credential, as follows:

In app-defined key-value pairs: The app processes key-value pairs that it expects in its AppConnect custom configuration. The app developer or vendor provides you the a list of key-value pairs, which you configure in the app’s AppConnect custom configuration and certificate configuration on the Ivanti Neurons for MDM Admin Portal.

The app can authenticate to an enterprise service with a certificate, using the certificate authentication feature that the AppConnect library provides.

This use case requires no development in the iOS AppConnect app. The AppConnect library that is built into each iOS AppConnect app receives the certificate and handles sending the certificate to the appropriate enterprise service.

Ivanti Neurons for MDM does not support derived credentials with AppConnect apps it imports from the Apple App Store.
