Abstract
Examples described here include systems and methods for configuring device settings for a number of user devices across an enterprise. A management server can provide a user interface at an administrator console for creating a profile and identifying an associated device type. The management server can then retrieve a schema file associated with the device type. Based on information in the schema file, the management server can populate the user interface at the administrator console with available configuration options pertaining to the device type. An administrator can configure the options and send instructions to the management server to deploy the profile across the number of user devices. The management server can instruct each user device to download a device configuration application from an application repository and transmit the settings information to an agent application of the user device that has permission to configure the device configuration application.
