  7. Assign a name Share
  8. Click on Save in the upper right corner.

Weblinks cannot be deployed as a Required App in the App Compliance policy configuration. However, it is possible to automatically deploy weblinks to specific users or user groups via Auto Deployments.

  1. Open the corresponding user account or group.
  2. Click the Add button at the bottom of the Auto Deployments section.
  3. Select the created web links and click Add.
  4. Click Save at the top.

The added web links will be immediately displayed on the devices where the corresponding user or a member of the corresponding user group has logged in.

The policy configuration Homescreen Layout can be used to place apps and web links specifically on the homescreen of iOS devices.

  1. Navigate to the menu item Devices > Policies in the Relution portal and click on `Add``.
  2. Create an iOS policy and assign a name. Click on Save.
  3. After clicking Add, select Homescreen Layout option and proceed to Add Details.
  4. If you have previously assigned existing web links to a category, they can be automatically placed in created folders on the homescreen. If you want to arrange them manually, uncheck the option Group icons by category.
  5. Then place the relevant apps and web links in the desired order using drag & drop. share
  6. Click Save and publish the current version of the policy.
  7. To apply the policy to iOS devices, add the desired devices using the Devices with this policy tab. The selected settings will then be automatically applied to the devices.

To display and use web links on Relution shared devices, the devices must be assigned an app compliance policy. This policy needs to be configured as follows:

  • Set List Type to Allowed
  • Set Web Links to Allow all web links (Safari will be automatically allowed)
