How to Find SharePoint iOS App Configuration Policy Keys
Question details
Administrators need to locate the XML key-value configuration options for the SharePoint iOS/iPadOS mobile app.
- Product
- SharePoint Online, Microsoft Intune
- Device & OS
- iOS, iPadOS
- Scenario
- An IT administrator is attempting to configure the SharePoint mobile app for enterprise users on managed Apple devices.
- Observed behavior
- The user is looking for documentation or the console location for configuring SharePoint app keys but cannot find them in the SharePoint admin center.
Ensure you have administrative access to your organization's Microsoft Endpoint Manager (Intune) admin center, as these policies are not managed within SharePoint itself.
Configure App Policies via Microsoft Intune
SharePoint app configuration policies are implemented through Microsoft Intune, not through SharePoint Online directly.
Microsoft manages app configuration policies for its mobile applications through Endpoint Manager (Intune). To apply XML key-value configurations for the SharePoint iOS/iPadOS app, administrators must use the App Configuration Policies section within the Intune portal.
Sign in to the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center using your administrator credentials.
Select 'Apps' from the left-hand navigation menu, then click on 'App configuration policies'.
Click 'Add' to create a new policy for 'Managed devices' and select iOS/iPadOS as the platform, or edit an existing policy targeting the SharePoint app.
In the settings section, choose to enter XML data or use the configuration designer to input the supported key-value pairs for your organization.
Looking for a Lightweight Office Suite for Your Team?
While enterprise app configurations require specialized admin tools like Intune, empowering your team with a reliable productivity suite shouldn't be complicated. WPS Office offers a free, lightweight, and highly compatible alternative to Microsoft Office for everyday document tasks.
- 1. Download the App: Visit the official WPS Office website or your device's app store to download the installation file.
- 2. Install the Software: Run the installer and follow the simple on-screen instructions to set up the suite on your device.
- 3. Open and Edit: Launch WPS Office to instantly open, edit, and save your existing Microsoft Office documents without format loss.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I manage SharePoint iOS app configuration directly in SharePoint Online?
No, SharePoint mobile app configuration policies for managed devices are strictly handled through Microsoft Intune, not via the SharePoint Online admin center.
Where can I find the official list of supported XML configuration keys?
The supported configuration keys are detailed in the official Microsoft Intune documentation for iOS/iPadOS app configuration policies.
What should I do if a Microsoft support link directs me to the wrong Intune menu?
The Microsoft Endpoint Manager interface is occasionally updated. If a specific link is outdated, manually navigate to 'Apps' > 'App configuration policies' in the Intune admin center, or seek updated guidance on the Microsoft Q&A platform.
