Add an Apple VPP account

  1. In the management console, on the menu bar, click Apps > iOS app licenses.
  2. Click Add an Apple VPP account.
  3. Type a name and the account holder information for the VPP account.
  4. In the VPP service token field, copy and paste the 64-bit code from the .vpp token file. This is the file that the VPP account holder downloaded from the VPP store.
  5. Click Next.
  6. Select the apps that you want to add to the app list.
  7. If you want iOS and macOS VPP apps to be updated automatically when an updated version is available, select the Automatically update the app when a new version is available check box. This setting applies to all VPP apps for this VPP account.
  8. Configure the following options for iOS VPP apps:
    1. If you want VPP apps to be removed from devices when the apps are deleted from BlackBerry UEM, select the Remove the app from the device when the device is removed from the system check box.
    2. To turn off the automatic backup of VPP apps to the iCloud online service, select the Disable iCloud backup for the app check box. This option applies only to apps with a required disposition (you set the disposition when you assign the app to a user or group).
    3. In the Default installation method drop-down list, select whether you want users to receive one prompt to install VPP apps or no prompt. Users can install the VPP app from the Work Apps list in the BlackBerry UEM Client or from the Work Apps icon on the device.
  9. Click Add.
