After the configuration has been completed you will be redirected back to the Support Portal. Here you need to download the JSON Enrollments file.

Don't forget to add the label to this configuration in order to distribute it to the test devices.
 

Create a User and a Single Device

In order to get the server info for device enrollment a new user and a single device entry need to be created inside the admin.
This is done through the Devices and Users tab. There are no special configuration that marks a device as Android enterprise when creating the user and device.

Enroll the Device

On the device go to Google Play and install the "Mobile@Work" app. Open it and follow the on screen instructions. Enter the user's email and password created here and proceed through the setup. There will be native Android screens near the last steps of the setup where you will be able to verify that the device is being enrolled through Android Enterprise. The android enterprise apps will be marked with a special icon. By default a separate Enterprise Google Play app should be created.
