Configure emails for certificate and token expirations in your tenant

Knox Manage can notify your admins by email when your tenant's certificates and tokens expire. Emails are sent 30 days before the token or certificate expires. Tenant-wide tokens include those for the Apple Push Notification service (APNs), Apple Volume Purchasing Program (VPP), Apple Device Enrollment Program, and others. Through this feature, your enterprise can stay on top of certificate and token changes and renewals, reducing downtime due to outdated validation documents and keys.
