Manage limited enrollment

You can set the devices that are registered with their IMEI/MEID, serial, OS version, or model name to be enrolled in KM.

IMEI/MEIDs can be registered individually or collectively using an XLS file. You can also register Wi-Fi-only devices with their serial numbers instead of their IMEI/MEIDs. Currently, you cannot register multiple devices using OS version or model name.

NOTE — An employee-owned device with a Work Profile running Android 12 and higher does not share its IMEI/MEID hardware identifier with KM. Instead, KM associates it with a unique enrollment identifier, which persists across re-deployments. For the purposes of this page, the terms IMEI/MEID and enrollment identifier are interchangeable.

Now you can activate limited enrollment for KME devices through the Settings > Android > Limited Enrollment page. When you turn on the KME Devices option, only devices registered through KME can be enrolled. KME devices cannot be enrolled through manual registration or Zero-touch.

NOTE — Android Legacy devices running Android 10 or later only can be controlled by OS version and model name. With IMEI/MEID, the devices can be enrolled even if you don't register their IMEI/MEIDs with Limited Enrollment.

Enroll non-KME devices

For non-KME devices in KM v21.2, when you select the OR condition, only devices that match one or the other criteria are enrolled. When you select the AND condition, only the devices that satisfy all the selected criteria are enrolled.
