QR code

The QR code enrollment process is applicable to the administrators, who generate the code; and to the users who enroll their devices.

The QR code provisioning method streamlines corporate-owned Android device enrollment through a simple scan. The QR code contains enrollment settings, automatic enrollment credentials, and wifi payload. This method eliminates the need for manual data entry and reduces manual errors. You can download and share the QR code to allow users to self-enroll their devices.
Note: Supported only on Android version 7 and later devices.
