iOS - PList Configuration

PLIST Configuration via MDM

If you use an MDM system, certain configuration parameters can be automatically assigned as key-value pairs via the PLIST.
These include:

"ServerURL", "FallbackURL" and "Device number"

The server URL should be set at the profile level and the device number at the device / user level.

The PLIST configuration is created in your MDM system.

If your MDM system does not provide a GUI for creating a PLIST file, you can also use alternative applications for this. A PLIST file is an XML file with the following content (example):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
  <dict>
    <key>Geraetenummer</key>
    <string>123-456-789-0123</string>
    <key>ServerURL</key>
    <string>https://demo.dedesales.de/</string>
  </dict>
</plist>
