- The managed Google Play iframe , or
- the Google Play Developer Publishing API .
3.13। Self-hosted private app management
IT admins can set up and publish self-hosted private apps. Unlike Google-hosted private apps, Google Play does not host the APKs. Instead, the EMM helps IT admins host APKs themselves, and helps protect self-hosted apps by ensuring they can only be installed when authorized by managed Google Play.
3.13.1। The EMM's console must help IT admins host the app APK, by offering both of the following options:
- Hosting the APK on the EMM's server. The server can be on-premise or cloud-based.
- Hosting the APK outside of the EMM's server, at the discretion of the enterprise. The IT admin must specify in the EMM console where the APK is hosted.
3.13.2। The EMM's console must generate an appropriate APK definition file using the provided APK and must guide IT admins through the publishing process.
3.13.3। IT admins can update self-hosted private apps, and the EMM's console can silently publish updated APK definition files using the Google Play Developer Publishing API .
3.13.4। The EMM's server serves download requests for the self-hosted APK that contains a valid JWT within the request's cookie, as verified by the private app's public key.
- To facilitate this process, the EMM's server must guide IT admins to download the self-hosted app's license public key from the Play Google Play Console, and upload this key to the EMM console.
3.14। EMM pull notifications
This feature is not applicable to the Android Management API. Set up Pub/Sub notifications instead.
3.15। API usage requirements
The EMM implements Android Management APIs at scale, avoiding traffic patterns that could negatively impact enterprises' ability to manage apps in production environments.
3.15.1। The EMM must adhere to the Android Management API usage limits. Not correcting behavior that exceeds these guidelines may result in suspension of API use, at Google's discretion.
3.15.2। The EMM should distribute traffic from different enterprises throughout the day, rather than consolidating enterprise traffic at specific or similar times. Behavior that fits this traffic pattern, such as scheduled batch operations for each device enrolled, may result in suspending API use, at Google's discretion.
3.15.3। The EMM shouldn't make consistent, incomplete, or deliberately incorrect requests that make no attempt to retrieve or manage actual enterprise data. Behavior that fits this traffic pattern may result in suspended API use, at Google's discretion.
3.16। Advanced managed configuration management
The EMM supports the following advanced managed configuration management features:
3.16.1. The EMM's console must be able to retrieve and display the up to four levels of nested managed configuration settings of any Play app, using:

4.8.2। IT admins can install certificate authorities (see caCerts ) in the managed keystore. However, this subfeature is unsupported .
4.9। Advanced certificate management
Allows IT admins to silently select the certificates that specific managed apps should use. This feature also grants IT admins the ability to remove CAs and identity certs from active devices, and prevent users from modifying credentials stored in the managed keystore.
4.9.1। For any app distributed to devices, IT admins can specify a certificate the app will be silently granted access during runtime. (This subfeature is not supported)
- Certificate selection must be generic enough to allow a single configuration that applies to all users, each of which may have a user-specific identity certificate.
4.9.2। IT admins can silently remove certificates from the managed keystore.
4.9.3। IT admins can silently uninstall a CA certificate. (This subfeature is not supported)

4.11.2। IT admins can use managed configurations to specify the VPN settings for an app.
4.12। IME management
IT admins can manage what input methods (IMEs) can be set up for devices. Since the IME is shared across both work and personal profiles, blocking use of IMEs will prevent users from allowing those IMEs for personal use as well. IT admins may not, however, block use of system IMEs on work profiles (go to advanced IME management for more details).
4.12.1। IT admins can set up an IME allowlist (Go to permitted_input_methods ) of arbitrary length (including an empty list, which blocks non-system IMEs), which may contain any arbitrary IME packages.
- The EMM's console may optionally suggest known or recommended IMEs to include in the allowlist, but must allow IT admins to choose from the list of apps available for install, for applicable users.
4.12.2। The EMM must inform IT admins that system IMEs are excluded from management on devices with work profiles.
4.13। Advanced IME management
