Apple Email Example Template

You can manage email configuration on Apple devices through a policy. You can set up the enrolled devices to use a dedicated email client app (such as Outlook) or a web based solution (such as Google Workspace). Read this section to learn how to create a custom Apple Email policy using a template from WebUI.

About this task

To create a custom policy from the Apple Email template, complete the following steps:
  1. From the WebUI select Apps > MCM
  2. The WebUI MCM dashboard appears. Click Create Policy.
  3. From the list of available policy options, select Custom from Template.
  4. On the General Settings page, do the following:
    1. Enter Policy Name and Description.
    2. For Operating System, select macOS or iOS / iPadOS.
    3. From the Assign Policy to Site drop-down, select a site to assign the policy.
    4. In the Templated Policy section, under Select a Policy from Template drop-down, select Apple Email Example Template and edit the necessary parameters.
      Note: Fill in all the placeholder information with either a specific value or a choice from those listed.
      • The %% in the template indicates placeholder for data that you must fill in.
      • The | (Vertical Bar) indicates the choices available for a parameter that you can choose from.
      For information on the necessary settings, refer to Mail MDM payload settings for Apple devices.
      .
    5. Click Save to save the custom Email policy.

What to do next

Add the saved policy to a policy group for macOS or iOS / iPadOS and deploy. When you deploy this policy on an MDM enrolled Apple device, the system fetches the primary user's name and Email address provided at the time of enrollment to log in to the Email app.
