Enrol Android devices

Once Android MDM is connected, you enrol devices by generating a QR code and scanning it during a device's first-time setup.

You'll need the mdm.enrol permission.

Generate an enrolment code

  1. Go to Settings → MDM → Devices (or Manage devices from the MDM settings page).
  2. Click Enrol device. OpsMerge generates a QR code and a short manual code.
  3. Keep this dialog open while you set up the device — the code expires after an hour.

Enrol the device

The device must be factory reset (or new out of the box).

  1. On the welcome screen, tap the same spot six times to open the QR scanner.
  2. Connect to Wi-Fi if prompted.
  3. Scan the QR code from OpsMerge. The device downloads Android Device Policy and provisions itself.

Can't scan? Enter the manual code instead when the device asks for it.

After enrolment

The device appears in the Devices list within a few minutes, with its model, OS version, and compliance state. From there you can assign it a policy and issue commands (lock, reboot, lost mode on, lost mode off, reset passcode, wipe) from the device's detail page.

Billing

Each enrolled device counts as a billable mobile device asset, so it appears automatically on the client's recurring invoice once you assign the device to a site. Releasing or wiping a device stops its meter.
