Managing

iOS

features with custom payload profiles

You can use custom payload profiles to control features on

iOS

devices that aren’t controlled by existing

BlackBerry UEM

policies or profiles. If a feature is controlled by an existing

UEM

policy or profile, a custom payload profile may not work as expected. You should use existing policies or profiles whenever possible.

You can create

Apple

configuration profiles using the

Apple Configurator

and add them to

UEM

custom payload profiles. You can assign custom payload profiles to users, user groups, and device groups.

For example, you want to control a new feature that will be available to devices when they upgrade to a new

iOS

update, but

UEM

won’t have an IT policy rule for that new feature until a future

UEM

software release. To solve this, you can create a custom payload profile that controls the feature until it is officially supported by

UEM

.
