Managed app configurations for macOS devices

You can use your device management solution (MDM) to deploy managed app configurations to domains. The configurations enable Okta Verify functionality.

Always deploy managed app configurations to both of these preference domains:

  • Preference domain 1: com.okta.mobile
  • Preference domain 2: com.okta.mobile.auth-service-extension

Use the following keys and values to configure Okta Verify:

OktaVerify.DeviceHealthOptions

Hide the Device Health page, or hide specific health checks in Okta Verify on user devices. If you select multiple values, separate them by a semicolon. For example, HideOSUpdate;HideDiskEncryption hides the OS update and disk encryption checks. All other device checks are shown.

If the value contains Disabled, the Device Health page isn't displayed in Okta Verify.

By default (when no values are set), all device health checks are displayed in Okta Verify on user devices.

Values (strings):

Disabled: Hides the device health page and badge.

HideOSUpdate: Hides the OS version check.

HideDiskEncryption: Hides the disk encryption check.

HideBiometrics: Hides the biometrics check.

HidePassword: Hides the password check.
