Entering AirWatch Settings
Note:After you have launched App Portal for the first time and uploaded the license file, you are then prompted to specify the connection settings for your deployment technology. However, you are not required to enter your deployment technology settings at this time. You could skip this step and launch App Portal, and then specify the deployment settings on the Site Management > Settings > Deployment view. For more information, see “Getting Started” in the App Portal / App Broker Administration Guide.
To connect App Portal to an AirWatch instance, you need to open the Settings > Deployment view under Site Management on the Admin tab, and then select the AirWatch tab.
To enter AirWatch connection settings, perform the following steps:
To enter AirWatch connection settings:
| 1. | On the Admin tab, open the Site Management > Settings > Deployment view. |
| 2. | Open the AirWatch tab. |
| 3. | In the AirWatch URL field, enter the URL to your instance of AirWatch. |
| 4. | Enter the User Name and Password to your AirWatch instance. |
| 5. | Enter the API Key that was provided to you by AirWatch. |

AirWatch Server settings are valid.
Note:AirWatch users (which are based upon an email address) and devices are synced to App Portal at the same time that the System Center Configuration Manager / Altiris users and devices are synced. App Portal users are matched with System Center Configuration Manager / Altiris users by having the same email address.
Note:When App Portal publishes a request to AirWatch, AirWatch returns a status message to indicate success or failure of the deployment. By default, these values are Installed or Managed for success or NotInstalled for failure. If, at some future time, AirWatch changes their status messages to something different, you can update these values by performing the steps in “Entering AirWatch Status Mapping Settings” in the App Portal / App Broker Administration Guide.
