Exchange

Template

In iOS, the Exchange payload is designated by specifying com.apple.eas.account as the PayloadType value. This payload configures an Exchange Active Sync account on the device.

In macOS, the Exchange payload is designated by specifying com.apple.ews.account as the PayloadType value. This payload will configure an Exchange Web Services account for Contacts, Mail, Notes, Reminders, and Calendar.

Note

As with VPN and Wi-Fi configurations, it is possible to associate an SCEP credential with an Exchange configuration via the PayloadCertificateUUID key.
