There's no difference between the usage of Android MicroStrategy Mobile app and Android MicroStrategy Library app to enable the AppConfig. The only difference is in Part II upload apps. Please upload the app you want to use: MicroStrategy Mobile app or MicroStrategy Library app.

4.Set application information such as Name and version. Click "SAVE AND ASSIGN".

Part III  Assign App

2.  Click "ASSIGN" button to open assign page then Click "ADD ASSIGNMENT"

3. Choose the "SMART GROUP" you want to assign.

4. Fill the other information for assignment. I enable "App Tunneling" and "Application Configuration" here.

Part IV  Download App

Open "Catalog" you will see the app you have assigned to you and download it.

Part V  Configure AppConfig

Since I have enabled App Tunneling and choose a Per-App VPN Profile there will be a profile auto downloaded to my device and you will see it in the Intelligent Hub -> This Device -> Profiles

In Airwatch console, value with percent-encoding characters from application configuration will be automatically decoded:

%3A → :

%2F → / 

%3F → ?

%3D → =

%26 → &

Therefore, we should firstly replace the "%" character with "%25" before applying the URL, for example:

Original URL:

mstr://?url=http%3A%2F%2F10.197.32.253%3A80%2FMicroStrategyMobile%2Fasp%2FTaskProc.aspx%3FtaskId%3DgetMobileConfiguration%26taskEnv%3Dxhr%26taskContentType%3Djson%26configurationID%3D68f36dc0-da1d-4fde-ab54-5ead5ffd5226%26blockTransform%3Dflatten%26blockVersion%3D1&authMode=1&dt=3

Converted URL:

mstr://?url=http%253A%252F%252F10.197.32.253%253A80%252FMicroStrategyMobile%252Fasp%252FTaskProc.aspx%253FtaskId%253DgetMobileConfiguration%2526taskEnv%253Dxhr%2526taskContentType%253Djson%2526configurationID%253D68f36dc0-da1d-4fde-ab54-5ead5ffd5226%2526blockTransform%253Dflatten%2526blockVersion%253D1&authMode=1&dt=3

If you need the application be initialized with a configuration URL, in the Application Configuration section, please input the converted URL as a String value. To distinguish configuration URLs between Android phone and tablet, we have the following keys for the URL:

• ConfigurationURLP: for phone.
• ConfigurationURLT: for tablet.

Part VI  Change AppConfig

3. Choose the assignment you want to modify and click "EDIT".

4. Modify the configuration in your assignment. I disable App Tunneling and change the DisableEmail to false which means I don't disable email in my app.
