You can now provide these selections via a configuration file or launch intent extras.

Settings format
The settings are provided in a JSON format.
The supported parameters are:
Parameter | Description | Supported since client version |
|---|---|---|
| Settings name. This may be shown to the user in the confirmation dialog. It should be a very short description of what the settings are for, so that the user can quickly determine if they are correct. | 5.2.0 |
| The installation code. | 5.2.0 |
| The service URL. This is usually in the format "https://{domain}/rest/api" | 5.2.0 |
| If true, user is not asked to confirm the activation of these settings. Otherwise, user will be shown a dialog where they must confirm the activation. | 5.2.0 |
Installation code and service URL are required values to start activation.
Example
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
{
'name': 'Name for settings',
'installationCode': '12345',
'serviceUrl': 'https://mysync.example.com/rest/api',
'skipConfirmation': false
} |
...
If the app has somehow been granted the permission to access device storage, it is able to read configuration files from the following locations:
Location | Supported since client version |
|---|---|
/sdcard/mysync.json (same directory as returned by | 5.2.0 |
/enterprise/usr/mysync.json | 5.2.0 |
Via launch intent
The JSON can be provided via an Intent. The intent should target the MainActivity class, and the extra activation_settings should contain the JSON as string value. For example:
Intent example
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setClassName("eu.mysync.android.dm", "eu.mysync.android.dm.activity.MainActivity");
intent.putExtra("activation_settings", "{'name':'Example settings','installationCode':'12345','serviceUrl':'https://mysync.example.com/rest/api', 'skipConfirmation':false}");
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent); |
If you are using Zebra Technologies' StageNow, you can create an Intent and enter the values like this:

Action name can be anything (StageNow requires a value), value does not matter. JSON can be written on a single line.
