Importing IT policy and device metadata updates

BlackBerry
regularly sends IT policy and device metadata updates to
BlackBerry UEM
installations to provide information about updates from device and OS vendors.
For example, after device vendor releases a new device model,
BlackBerry
may send updated device metadata to
BlackBerry UEM
installations so that activation and compliance profiles include the new device model and it can be allowed or restricted by the profile. After
Apple
,
Google
, or
Microsoft
release OS updates, a new IT policy pack may be sent to
BlackBerry UEM
UEM installations to allow you to control the new features in the OS update.
By default,
BlackBerry UEM
installs these updates automatically. If your organization's security policy does not allow automatic updates, you can turn off the automatic updates and import updates into
BlackBerry UEM
manually.
You can also set up event notifications to inform administrators when IT policy and device metadata updates have been installed.
