Enrolling the Files Advanced client app in BlackBerry Dynamics

The Files Advanced for BlackBerry client app available on the Apple App Store is purpose built as a BlackBerry Dynamics integrated application. When first installed on a device, the Files Advanced app starts and requires the user to activate it in your BlackBerry Dynamics system.

To enroll a Files Advanced client app in BlackBerry Dynamics:

Note: Easy Activation requires at least one BlackBerry application (BlackBerry Work, BlackBerry Access, or BlackBerry Agent) to be installed for activation to succeed. Applications that have been upgraded from a prior version of Files Advanced that was activated using a third-party application should continue to function as expected

1. Launch Files Advanced for BlackBerry Dynamics on your device.
2. Enter your Email Address and the Access Key that was emailed to you by your IT administrator.
3. Progress will be displayed as your app is enrolled with BlackBerry Dynamics.
4. If required by your BlackBerry Dynamics policy, you will be asked to set an application lock password. If you are also using BlackBerry for Enterprise, Files Advanced may require that you log into BlackBerry for Enterprise in order to gain access to the Files Advanced app. Once this process is completed, you will be taken to the Files Advanced application's home screen.

From this point on, when you start the Files Advanced app, you may be required to enter the Files Advanced for BlackBerry Dynamics application password that you configured earlier, or you may be required to authenticate with your BlackBerry for Enterprise app before Files Advanced opens.

Aside from that requirement, Files Advanced for BlackBerry Dynamics functions the same way that the standard Files Advanced app does. Some features in the app may be restricted based on your BlackBerry Dynamics policy set. This includes features such as opening Files Advanced files into other 3rd party applications, emailing and printing files, copying and pasting text from Files Advanced files, etc.

Note: Once the Files Advanced for BlackBerry Dynamics app has been activated in BlackBerry Dynamics, it is not possible to deactivate. If you need to switch to a standard version of Files Advanced, you will need to delete the Files Advanced for BlackBerry Dynamics app and reinstall the standard Files Advanced app
