, you must enable
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
 in an enterprise connectivity profile and assign the profile to users and groups.
When the enterprise connectivity profile is applied to the device after activation,
BlackBerry UEM
 installs the
BlackBerry Connectivity
 app on the device (for
Android Enterprise
 devices, the app is installed automatically from
Google Play
; for
iOS
 and
iPadOS
 devices, the app is installed automatically from the
App Store
).

    Policies and Profiles > Networks and connections > Enterprise connectivity
    .
  2. Edit an existing enterprise connectivity profile or create a new one.

    , in the
    BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus server group
     drop-down list, click the appropriate server group.

  • On
    Android Enterprise
     and
    Samsung Knox Workspace
     devices, the
    BlackBerry Connectivity
     app prompts users to allow it to run as a VPN and to allow access to private keys on the device. Instruct users to accept the requests. Device users can open the app to view the status of the connection. No further action is required from users.
  • If you created more than one enterprise connectivity profile, rank the profiles. Select a profile and click The Rank icon to move the profile up or down the ranking. Click
    Save
    .
  • If you are troubleshooting a connection issue with an
    iOS
    ,
    iPadOS
    ,
    Android Enterprise
     or
    Knox Workspace
     device, the app allows the user to send the device logs to an administrator's email address (the user enters an email address that you must provide). Note that the logs are not viewable with Winzip. It is recommended to use another utility such as 7-Zip.
