MDM Integration: Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile (MobileIron Core)

This document covers Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile (formerly MobileIron Core). For Ivanti Neurons (MobileIron Cloud), see MDM Integration: Ivanti Neurons.

Enrollment Only

Imprivata Mobile Access Management can enroll devices touch-free. Devices are assigned to anonymous users, but may then be re-assigned to Active Directory users.

To export the MDM profile that connects Mobile Access Management to Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile:

1. In the Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile console, click Policies & Configs > Configurations >
2. Locate and click on System – iOS MDM under the Name column of the Configurations tab you’re in.
   NOTE: It may be on the second page.
3. Click Export MDM Profile.
   If you are on a Mac, your Mac will try to install the downloaded profile. Don’t do it. Click Cancel.
4. Locate the downloaded file. It may be called shared_mdm_profile.mobileconfig. This is the file to upload to MAM.
   You may rename this file, but keep the “.mobileconfig” extension.
5. In the MAM console, create a new Workflow or edit an existing one.
6. Choose Add an Item, then Add Configuration Profile. Upload the configuration profile from the steps above.
7. Make sure the Workflow includes a Wi-Fi network. Your iOS device must be on Wi-Fi to accept the MDM enrollment profile. If you include both in your Workflow, Mobile Access Management will always install Wi-Fi first.

Devices enrolled in Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile this way will be assigned to anonymous users. Use Ivanti’s “System – Multi-User Secure Sign-In” policy to easily reassign devices to their proper users.

Integrate with Ivanti’s API

You may also choose to integrate with Ivanti’s API. To do this, you’ll need to fill in some additional data. You will need an Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile admin user assigned to be the API role.
