Abstract:
Disclosed are various examples of device and management service integration using a device connector service that acts as a proxy. The device connector service can receive a device identifier for a device, and an enterprise identifier, and generate a management unique device identifier (UDID) using these values. The management UDID can be used in an enrollment request that enrolls the device with the management service. Device data including a device configuration can be received from the management service, and the device configuration can be relayed to a device connector client to apply the device configuration to the device.
