Hi
I have the problem that when using the syntax from the sample configuration of the app found here:

http://seanashton.net/webdav/mdm/

the app is pushed correctly but the Status of the Command "Managed App Configuration" for the app just stays pending forever:

https://www.evernote.com/shard/s1/sh/1f30ab4b-bf57-4dbe-b9d9-456ff37af316/e66e90df56c7a4c5f43a3294e4...

and the config never shows up on the device.

did anyone have success? Thanks for your input.

All we send is the connection information below. Had some issues at first as well but were just missing the last </dict>

<dict>
    <key>config</key>
     <dict>
        <key>static_connections</key>
    <array>
        <dict>
            <key>password</key>
            <string>yourpassword</string>
            <key>username</key>
            <string>yourusername</string>
            <key>url</key>
 <string>https://url</string>
            <key>name</key>
            <string>nameofconnection</string>
        </dict>
        </array>
</dict>
</dict>

Hiya,

Would like to check do you guys still have issue using the syntax? I had try using that on app config but it doesn't seem to push the config to the ipad.

Hi Dan86

I wasn't successfull and so I went for a similar product that looks way nicer and is way better documented:

http://www.stratospherix.com/products/filebrowserforbusiness/

In this pdf-File the syntax for Casper Suite is described:

http://www.stratospherix.com/products/filebrowserforbusiness/FileBrowserRemoteConfiguration.pdf

That's the syntax I'm using for our ownCloud instance (the only part you have to change is the string of the "1machinename" entry:

<key>mdm-enforce</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>lockdown</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>disableSaveCreds</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>disableMyFiles</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>disableiTunesSync</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>disableSaveCreds</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>cacheCredentials</key>
<integer>0</integer>
<key>clearCacheOnExit</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>1displayname</key>
<string>eWolke</string>
<key>1domain</key>
<string></string>
<key>1flags</key>
<integer>3584</integer>
<key>1machine1sharename</key>
<string>remote.php/webdav</string>
<key>1machinename</key>
<string>https://ewolke.ch/remote.php/webdav</string>

With best regards

Hi Tobias,

I have finally found the code thanks to the jamf support - John Szaszvari who helped me contact the app developer to test. This the code just change the string info will do..

<dict>
<key>config</key>
<dict>
<key>static_connections</key>
<array> <dict> <key>password</key> <string>yourpassword</string> <key>username</key> <string>yourusername</string> <key>url</key>
<string>yoururl</string> <key>name</key> <string>yourdescription</string>

</dict>
</array>

</dict>
</dict>

Not sure when I try used yours and do it doesn't work...
think the issue is with the url.
might be http and https...depend how we set the WebDAV.
