Deprecated features
These are cumulative release deprecation feature notes. If a release does not appear in this section, then there were no associated deprecated features.
Due to deprecation of third party APIs, the following features may be discontinued or may not work as expected.
Ivanti does not control the Samsung API deprecation schedule and it is possible some deprecations can result in future issues. It is recommended to switch to Samsung Knox Service Plugin (OEMConfig) for Samsung-specific features when the control(s) is not available in the Ivanti Android feature set.
Deprecated features
The following are a list of deprecated features listed for each release:
