The App attributes device policy lets you specify attributes for apps on iOS devices. By configuring this type of policy, you can accomplish the following:

Assign per app VPNs to apps.
Prevent users from uninstalling mission-critical apps. Applies to iOS 14 and later.
If the Associated Domains feature is enabled, specify associated domains to add to apps. Applies to iOS 13 and later.

For more information, see About Associated Domains.

To add or configure this policy, go to Configure > Device Policies. For more information, see Device policies.

About Associated Domains

Associated Domains let you establish a secure association between domains and your app so you can share credentials or provide features in your app from your websites. For example, with this feature enabled, you can share data and sign-in credentials between apps and websites in your organization.

For more information about how to enable this feature, see Supporting Associated Domains on Apple’s website.

Device Policies configuration screen

Managed app bundle ID: Specify an app in the following ways:
- Select the app bundle ID. Options are available only after you enable the App Inventory device policy, which collects an inventory of apps on managed devices.
- Select Add new, and then type the app bundle ID. To find an app bundle ID, see Find the bundle ID for an app in the App Store.
Per-app VPN identifier: (Optional) Select a per app VPN for this app. Options include the per app VPN connections that you configured on the Device Policies > VPN Policy page. For more information, see Configure a per app VPN.
Removable app: (Optional) Specify whether this app is removable by users when it’s a managed app. To prevent users from uninstalling this app, set this option to Off. The default is On.
Enable associated domain direct download: (Optional) The default is On, indicating this app does claimed site association verification directly at the domain instead of on Apple’s servers. Set this option to On only for domains that can’t access the Internet.
Associated Domains: (Optional) To add an Associated Domain for this app, click Add, and then type its fully qualified domain name (FQDN).

Find the bundle ID for an app in the App Store

Locate the app in the App Store and copy the number at the end of the URL. For example, 363501921 is the app ID for Citrix Workspace app.
Go to https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id= and paste the number after that URL. A TXT file is downloaded to your computer automatically.
In the TXT file, search for bundleId and get the bundle ID of the app. Example: the bundle ID for Citrix Workspace app is com.citrix.ReceiveriPad.
