Can't clearly understand use case of Intune SDK
- May 13, 2020
Hi yashjoshi,
The Microsoft Intune App SDK for Android lets you incorporate Intune app protection policies (also known as APP or MAM policies) into your native Android app. An Intune-managed application is one that is integrated with the Intune App SDK. Intune administrators can easily deploy app protection policies to your Intune-managed app when Intune actively manages the app.
Additionally see here:
Microsoft Intune App SDK overview
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/developer/app-sdkSo, if you are not a developer you normally won't touch the SDK. Your are using functionality provided by apps which have the SDK integrated like "enforce encryption on saved data" or "configure clipboard restriction".
best,
Oliver

Hello Oliver Kieselbach,
Thanks a lot for the quick response and detailed explanation.
I want to further clarify if JUST integrating the SDK to my native android app will allow the app to be managed from the portal without further programmatic manipulations, i.e. should there still be need of adding Intune specific code to the application?
