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 preforms 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.
