Files device policy

You can add script files to Endpoint Management that perform certain functions for users, or you can add document files that you want Android users to access on their devices. When you add the file, you can also specify the directory in which you want the file to be stored on the device. For example, if you want Android users to receive a company document or .pdf file, you can deploy the file to the device and let users know where the file is located.

You can add the following file types with this policy:

• Text-based files (.xml, .html, .py, and so on)
• Other files, such as documents, pictures, spreadsheets, or presentations

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