Hello,

one questions to the new feature ->
iOS 7 App Configuration Support

Can you give me an example with the
Lotus Notes Companion
App? Where can I find the parameters of this APP???

E.g. to config the server URL and so on??

Thanks Andi

Hello Andi,

While we have updated our product to support the delivery of configurations to apps, it is up to the app developers to define the set of configuration options that can be delivered. In this case, you would need to contact the Lotus Notes Companion developers to see if they have updated their app to allow configuration through MDM vendors.

If configurable options are possible, you can learn more about how to send them to devices here:
