Data flow: Sending documents between 
BlackBerry Work
 and 
Microsoft Intune
 managed apps using the 
BlackBerry BRIDGE
 app

This data flow shows how to share documents that are received as email attachments in 
BlackBerry Work
 or saved to the Local 
Docs
 folder or an Enterprise remote 
Docs
 location to 
Intune
 managed apps on 
Android
 and 
iOS
 devices when the 
BRIDGE
 app is installed. In this example, a user opens a 
Microsoft Word
 document that has been received as an email attachment and that requires feedback.
Data flow: Using the BRIDGE app
  1. The user downloads and previews a file received as an email attachment in 
    BlackBerry Work
    . 
  2. If the 
    Microsoft Intune
     app protection policy profile allows it, the device sends a copy of the file using the AppKinetics Transfer File service through secured channels to the 
    BRIDGE
     app. 
  3. The 
    BRIDGE
     app securely sends a copy of the file over an 
    Intune
     protected channel to the 
    Intune
     managed app (for example, 
    Microsoft Word
    ). The 
    BRIDGE
     app deletes the copy of the file within the 
    BRIDGE
     app after the file transfer is complete. 
  4. The user perfoms the following actions:
    1. Saves a copy of the file in an 
      Intune
       protected area of the 
      Intune
       managed app.
    2. Modifies the file as required and saves the updated file.
  5. The device sends a copy of the file back to the 
    BRIDGE
     app over the 
    Intune
     protected channel. 
  6. The 
    BRIDGE
     app sends the copy of the file to 
    BlackBerry Work
     using the AppKinetics Transfer File service through secured channels to attach to the original or a new email or to save to the Local 
    Docs
     folder or an Enterprise remote 
    Docs
     location. The 
    BRIDGE
     app deletes the copy of the file within the 
    BRIDGE
     app after the file transfer is complete.
