This article will help you to install the G DATA client application on an iOS device.
The G DATA Business client for iOS makes use of the Apple push notifications.
In order to enable this function, you will first have to create an account in our ActionCenter.
Access the ActionCenter via the following link, then create your account:
Click here to access the ActionCenter
Now open G DATA Administrator and click on ManagementServers in the vertical menu on the left side, then go to the panel ActionCenter.
Enter the credentials for the account you have previously created, then click Apply.
Back to the Clients panel of the Administrator, you will now see a new category called iOS Mobile Device Management, visible in the menu on the left hand side of the screen.
If you don’t see it yet, refresh the view by clicking on the small rotating arrow on the top-left.
In addition to this, you will have to configure an email account which will be used by the ManagementServer to send out the installation link to the clients.
This account is the same one used to send out email reports.
