Workows12
The Workows feature allows you to schedule repeated tasks and assign actions to occur when the tasks are
carried out. The scheduled tasks run like scripts. Detailed reports are generated for the scheduled tasks.
There are two main types of workows:
●
Scheduled tasks—These tasks act on the apps published to the devices or change the state of the
devices. The devices must be online at the scheduled time for the task. Scheduled tasks are based on
your selected dashboard time zone.
● Compliance tasks—These tasks are based on device data and metrics. For example, an email alert can be
sent to a device user to act when a certain metric, such as battery usage, is reached.
