There are 2 methods of installing iOS MDM on the user's device:

• Via AppStore (iTunes Store);
• Via Manifest URL (with manual placement of the package).

How to install via AppStore

Installation via AppStore involves a special key named App ID.

This process is fully automatic and requires no actions from the KSC administrator. In KSC, you need to specify the application name (this name will be used in KSC event log) and the application ID.

The application ID can be learned from its URL.

To install an app on a device after the application's description has been published on the server, perform the corresponding command (Install application to device).

How to install via Manifest URL

Manual installation requires more actions from the company (in particular, from the KSC administrator).

To perform an installation, you need:

1. An application signed with a developer certificate. Depending on what certificate is used, you may need a provisioning profile with the corresponding UDID installed on the device.
2. Manifest for the application. Manifest is an XML file that contains information about the application, including its name, version, and the location of its installation package

Workflow:

1. The user fills out the manifest with the application details (icon, metadata, .ipa package location).
2. Next, the user needs to upload the manifest to the web server and create a new application in the iOS MDM server properties with a link to the created manifest. ATTENTION! The link must lead to the manifest, not the ipa file.
