Manage Users
Users are the people who interact with Entgra UEM Server. Users can belong to either the administrator or user role type. The super tenant administrator and a tenant administrator belongs to the administrator role type; while, all other end-users belong to the user role type. The organization does not need to add users manually, if Entgra UEM Server is connected to a user store. UEM Server users are not allowed to edit user details once they have been added. You need to delete the current user and create a new user, if the need arises to change user details.

Default Roles and Permissions
By default, Entgra UEM Server includes a set of roles. These default roles and permissions have been explained in the following subsections.
Default User Roles
The admin role is available by default in Entgra UEM Server:
-
If you are defining the permissions for a UEM Server administrator who needs to perform operations and configure policies, make sure to select admin. The admin permission allows the user to perform operations and configure policies for devices.
-
If you wish to create a user with administrative permission other than the default administrator in Entgra UEM Server, follow the steps given below:
- Add a new a role.
- Configure role permissions by specifically selecting the admin permission.
Manage Groups
This tutorial takes you through on how to group your enrolled devices. Grouping allows you to monitor and view device data of several devices at once.
Entgra UEM lets you to create groups in a Hierarchical Manner. It involves creating top-level groups as main categories and then further divide them into more specific groups (subgroups).
This way you can view any abnormal behavior of the devices at a glance and take necessary actions to prevent it.
Example
For example, sharing the devices in your lobby with your technician. For this purpose, you can create a group named Lobby, add the devices in the lobby to the created group, and share the group with the technician. Now the technician is able to view the devices in the group, analyze the data gathered by the devices and come to a conclusion on the devices that need attention.
By default, Entgra UEM Server has following groups:
- Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)
- Corporate-Owned Personally Enabled (COPE)
Let’s get started!
Add New Groups
Start off by creating a new device group in the Entgra UEM Server:
-
Sign in to the Entgra UEM Server console.
-
Click Create + in the top right corner and select Group.
Or go to Configurations, select Groups and click More groups.
-
Select the group type.
-
Top Level Group
- A top-level group, also known as a parent group, is the highest level in the hierarchical structure.
- To create a top-level group, Click Continue after selecting this option.
-
Hierarchical Group
-
When you select this option, the new group you are creating will be placed as a sub-group under the selected top-level group in the hierarchical structure.
-
Select Hierarchical Group.
-
Click on the group you want to create a sub group.
-
Click Continue.
-
-
-
Enter the appropriate Group Name and Group Description. Click Continue.

Android For Work
General
This section covers details about the preferred communication mechanisms used by Android device for server communication, user agreements and multiple other Android specific general configurations.
Android communication protocol
Type of Communication : Configures the preferred communication mechanisms used by Android device to server communication. There are 2 methods of communication available: Local Polling and FCM.
-
Local Polling
- The device will contact the Entgra UEM server periodically.
- When Local poling is selected, a new field called polling interval is enabled. The agent will contact the server and try to fetch commands, based on the interval provided here (in seconds). Note that lowering this number will mean more network callls and high device battery usage.
Note
Due to Android restrictions, the minimum frequency here is 60 seconds.
-
Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM)
- FCM will send a notification to the device when there are pending operations available for a specific device.
- If FCM has been selected as the notifier type, a new field called API key will be enabled where the server key of the FCM configuration needs to be provided. FCM is more network and barrery usage friendly and recommended over local polling.
- Also note that we do not send any sensitive data over FCM. FCM is mearly a wake up call to the agent and the agent will poll the server when it recieves such a wakeup to fetch the real commands.
Note
From Android 4.4 (KitKat) onwards, the OS does not allow applications to trigger wake-up commands when the trigger period is set to less than a minute. Therefore, make sure to set the notifier frequency to 60 seconds or more.
End User License Agreement (EULA) - This text will be shown to a user while enrolling via the agent. This can be used to show the end user agreement or any other information that the user must agree, in order to proceed with enrolment.
Android Location Configurations
Enable Continuous Device Location Publishing - If this is ticked, the server will publish data from devices to the analytics component. Note that the analytics must be enabled and configured prior to enabling this configuration
Android Firewall Configuration
Enable UEM Server Firewall Service - If this is enabled, the agent will to look up the entgra firewall application and start the firewall service. Note this requires certain components which are only available to certain customers. Please contact Entgra for more details
Policy
The configurations below serve as prerequisites for enforcing certain policies:
Field | Description |
---|---|
Restricted Application List | Set of comma separated package names. This list should only include non-system applications and applications that are not critical for system functionalities. When the Application Restriction Settings policy calculates the applications to be allowed-listed on a device, the list given here (except those included in the allow list) is always considered restricted. The reason for this is that certain OS level applications should not be disabled while allow-listing as those apps are critical to the operation of the device. |
Force device renaming on enrollment | If this is selected, the agent will prompt the user to provide a name for the device at enrolment. The given name will be the name that appears on the endpoint management portal. If this is not selected, the device name provided by the system will be used. |
COPE/Kiosk
Fill the fields with required values and click Save to apply the changes to the device.
Field | Details |
---|---|
Provisioning Component | Package name of the Entgra Android agent’s device policy manager component. This is always the bellow value, unless the package name is customized io.entgra.iot.agent/org.wso2.iot.agent.services.AgentDeviceAdminReceiver |
Package checksum | During the enrollment, this checksum is validated by Android to determine if the downoaded apk matches the checksum. Run the following command to get the checkSum value of the agent, cat <AGENT_APK_FILE_PATH> | openssl dgst -binary -sha256 | openssl base64 | tr '+/' '-_' | tr -d '=' |
Download Location | Android agent download location. (ex: http://192.168.8.20:8080/android.apk) |
Server Address | The address of the server. This is used as the server address when enrolling the device. (ex:https://gw.entgra.net:443 |
Enable Encryption | Upon enrolment if this device must be encrypted, select this option. Not applicable to BYOD devices |
Enable All System Apps | This will indicate whether all system apps should be enabled after the device is enrolled. |
Ownership Type | Type of the ownership |
Android For Work
Android enterprise configurations
Before you start using the capabilities of Android Enterprise, there is a configuration step that enables Entgra to connect to Google Enterprise. This step will allow Entgra to manage your device uniquely for your enterprise. In more technical terms, Entgra requires a special token to talk to Google APIs (known as ESA) and a unique enterprise ID to identify your organization and its devices and apps uniquely.
The steps below will enable you to configure Android Enterprise:
-
Get an access token from Entgra - This token provided by Entgra is only valid for a period of 1 hour. Therefore, please make sure to mention the time that you are planning to perform these steps. This is a token that gives you access to start the onboarding process which will allow you to register a new enterprise ID and a token from Google known as ESA.
