IMEI / Serial Number based Enrollment

Scalefusion provides option of bulk enrollment of devices. IMEI / Serial # Based Enrollment is a quick and easy way for bulk enrollment of Android Enterprise devices. All you need to do is upload a CSV file containing IMEIs or Serial Numbers along with the group or profile and device names for each of them.

The document describes in detail how to enroll your device with this method.

Before You Begin

1. Have a valid Scalefusion account
2. The Android Device must be running Android 6.0 and higher and is Android Enterprise Ready
3. On Devices, the standard Android OOB experience, that allows you to enter GMail account during device setup, should be followed.

Enrolling Steps

On Dashboard

2. Click on Upload CSV

   

3. A dialog box will open. Click on Sample on the top right to download Sample CSV
   

   

4. Open the downloaded sample CSV. It contains some sample data.

   The custom property information can be uploaded for all platforms. When the device enrolls the properties are auto-assigned to the device.

1. Remove the sample data and put the Serial no. of device(s) in the Serial_no and / or IMEI number of device(s) in the IMEI number.
   Important Points to Note:

   2. The Enrollment method can contain 0 or 1 where 0 indicates Regular Enrollment and 1 indicates User Authenticated Enrollment. It is mandatory to enter relevant values under Enrollment method.
