Location Tracking (Windows)

The Location Tracking Job allows administrators to remotely activate location tracking on enrolled devices while also providing the capability to set tracking intervals. With this functionality, administrators can precisely customize how often a device's location is updated and reported.

*Note: This feature will only function if the Location permission is enabled on the device. *

To create a Location Tracking job and deploy it to the enrolled device(s) or group(s) remotely, follow these steps:

  2. On the Location Tracking prompt, enter a Job Name and select Enable Location Tracking.

  3. Choose a value from the spin box (in minutes) in Tracking Periodicity and click OK.

The newly created job will be listed in the Jobs List section. 

  1. Go back to the Home tab and select the Windows device(s) or group(s).

  2. Click Apply to launch the Apply Job/Profile To Device prompt.

  3. Select the job under All Jobs/Profiles.

  4. Click Apply in the Apply/Profile To Device prompt.
