Kotlin |Java

public class DevicePolicyManager
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager

---

Manages device policy and restrictions applied to the user of the device or apps running on the device.

This class contains three types of methods:

1. Those aimed at managing apps
2. Those aimed at the Device Policy Management Role Holder
3. Those aimed at apps which wish to respect device policy

The intended caller for each API is indicated in its Javadoc.

Managing Apps

Apps can be made capable of setting device policy ("Managing Apps") either by being set as a Device Administrator, being set as a Device Policy Controller, or by holding the appropriate Permissions.

A Device Administrator is an app which is able to enforce device policies that it has declared in its device admin XML file. An app can prompt the user to give it device administator privileges using the ACTION_ADD_DEVICE_ADMIN action.

For more information about Device Administration, read the Device Administration developer guide.

Through Managed Provisioning, Device Administrator apps can also be recognised as Device Policy Controllers. Device Policy Controllers can be one of two types:

• A Device Owner, which only ever exists on the System User or ERROR(Main User/android.os.UserManager#isMainUser Main User), is the most powerful type of Device Policy Controller and can affect policy across the device.
• A Profile Owner, which can exist on any user, can affect policy on the user it is on, and when it is running on a profile has limited ability to affect policy on its ERROR(parent/android.os.UserManager#getProfileParent parent).

Additional capabilities can be provided to Device Policy Controllers in the following circumstances:

• A Profile Owner on an organization owned device has access to additional abilities, both affecting policy on the profile's ERROR(parent/android.os.UserManager#getProfileParent parent) and also the profile itself.
• A Profile Owner running on the System User has access to additional capabilities which affect the System User and also the whole device.
• A Profile Owner running on an affiliated user has capabilities similar to that of a Device Owner

For more information, see Building a Device Policy Controller.

Permissions are generally only given to apps fulfilling particular key roles on the device (such as managing ERROR(device locks/DeviceLockManager device locks)).

Device Policy Management Role Holder

One app on the device fulfills the ERROR(Device Policy Management Role/RoleManager#ROLE_DEVICE_POLICY_MANAGEMENT Device Policy Management Role) and is trusted with managing the overall state of Device Policy. This has access to much more powerful methods than managing apps.

Querying Device Policy

In most cases, regular apps do not need to concern themselves with device policy, and restrictions will be enforced automatically. There are some cases where an app may wish to query device policy to provide a better user experience. Only a small number of policies allow apps to query them directly. These APIs will typically have no special required permissions.

Managed Provisioning

Managed Provisioning is the process of recognising an app as a Device Owner or Profile Owner. It involves presenting education and consent screens to the user to ensure they are aware of the capabilities this grants the Device Policy Controller

For more information on provisioning, see Building a Device Policy Controller.

A Managed Profile enables data separation. For example to use a device both for personal and corporate usage. The managed profile and its ERROR(parent/android.os.UserManager#getProfileParent parent) share a launcher.

Affiliation

Using the setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set) method, a Device Owner can set a list of affiliation ids for the System User. Any Profile Owner on the same device can also call setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set) to set affiliation ids for the user it is on. When there is the same ID present in both lists, the user is said to be "affiliated" and we can refer to the Profile Owner as a "profile owner on an affiliated user" or an "affiliated profile owner". Becoming affiliated grants the Profile Owner capabilities similar to that of the Device Owner. It also allows use of the bindDeviceAdminServiceAsUser(ComponentName, Intent, ServiceConnection, BindServiceFlags, UserHandle) APIs for direct communication between the Device Owner and affiliated Profile Owners.

Organization Owned

An organization owned device is one which is not owned by the person making use of the device and is instead owned by an organization such as their employer or education provider. These devices are recognised as being organization owned either by the presence of a device owner or of a profile which has a profile owner is marked as organization owned.

Profile owners running on an organization owned device can exercise additional capabilities using the getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) API which apply to the parent user. Each API will indicate if it is usable in this way.

Android Automotive

On "Android Automotive builds", some methods can throw "an exception" if an action is unsafe (for example, if the vehicle is moving). Callers running on "Android Automotive builds" should always check for this exception.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_DEVICE_ADMIN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

void	setPasswordMinimumUpperCase(ComponentName admin, int length) This method was deprecated in API level 31. see setPasswordQuality(android.content.ComponentName, int) for details.
void	setPasswordQuality(ComponentName admin, int quality) This method was deprecated in API level 31. Prefer using setRequiredPasswordComplexity(int), to require a password that satisfies a complexity level defined by the platform, rather than specifying custom password requirement. Setting custom, overly-complicated password requirements leads to passwords that are hard for users to remember and may not provide any security benefits given as Android uses hardware-backed throttling to thwart online and offline brute-forcing of the device's screen lock. Company-owned devices (fully-managed and organization-owned managed profile devices) are able to continue using this method, though it is recommended that setRequiredPasswordComplexity(int) should be used instead.
boolean	setPermissionGrantState(ComponentName admin, String packageName, String permission, int grantState) Sets the grant state of a runtime permission for a specific application.
void	setPermissionPolicy(ComponentName admin, int policy) Set the default response for future runtime permission requests by applications.

boolean	setStatusBarDisabled(ComponentName admin, boolean disabled) Called by device owner or profile owner of secondary users that is affiliated with the device to disable the status bar.
int	setStorageEncryption(ComponentName admin, boolean encrypt) This method was deprecated in API level 30. This method does not actually modify the storage encryption of the device. It has never affected the encryption status of a device. Called by an application that is administering the device to request that the storage system be encrypted. Does nothing if the caller is on a secondary user or a managed profile. When multiple device administrators attempt to control device encryption, the most secure, supported setting will always be used. If any device administrator requests device encryption, it will be enabled; Conversely, if a device administrator attempts to disable device encryption while another device administrator has enabled it, the call to disable will fail (most commonly returning ENCRYPTION_STATUS_ACTIVE). This policy controls encryption of the secure (application data) storage area. Data written to other storage areas may or may not be encrypted, and this policy does not require or control the encryption of any other storage areas. There is one exception: If Environment.isExternalStorageEmulated() is true, then the directory returned by Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() must be written to disk within the encrypted storage area. Important Note: On some devices, it is possible to encrypt storage without requiring the user to create a device PIN or Password. In this case, the storage is encrypted, but the encryption key may not be fully secured. For maximum security, the administrator should also require (and check for) a pattern, PIN, or password.
void	setSystemSetting(ComponentName admin, String setting, String value) Called by a device or profile owner to update Settings.System settings.
void	setSystemUpdatePolicy(ComponentName admin, SystemUpdatePolicy policy) Called by device owners or profile owners of an organization-owned managed profile to set a local system update policy.

Constants

ACTION_ADD_DEVICE_ADMIN

Added in API level 8

public static final String ACTION_ADD_DEVICE_ADMIN

Activity action: ask the user to add a new device administrator to the system. The desired policy is the ComponentName of the policy in the EXTRA_DEVICE_ADMIN extra field. This will invoke a UI to bring the user through adding the device administrator to the system (or allowing them to reject it).

You can optionally include the EXTRA_ADD_EXPLANATION field to provide the user with additional explanation (in addition to your component's description) about what is being added.

If your administrator is already active, this will ordinarily return immediately (without user intervention). However, if your administrator has been updated and is requesting additional uses-policy flags, the user will be presented with the new list. New policies will not be available to the updated administrator until the user has accepted the new list.

Constant Value: "android.app.action.ADD_DEVICE_ADMIN"

ACTION_ADMIN_POLICY_COMPLIANCE

Added in API level 29

public static final String ACTION_ADMIN_POLICY_COMPLIANCE

Activity action: Starts the administrator to show policy compliance for the provisioning. This action is used any time that the administrator has an opportunity to show policy compliance before the end of setup wizard. This could happen as part of the admin-integrated provisioning flow (in which case this gets sent after ACTION_GET_PROVISIONING_MODE), or it could happen during provisioning finalization if the administrator supports finalization during setup wizard.

See also:

• ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE
• ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_DEVICE

Constant Value: "android.app.action.PROVISIONING_SUCCESSFUL"

ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_DEVICE

Added in API level 23
Deprecated in API level 31

public static final String ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_DEVICE

This constant was deprecated in API level 31.
to support Build.VERSION_CODES.S and later, admin apps must implement activities with intent filters for the ACTION_GET_PROVISIONING_MODE and ACTION_ADMIN_POLICY_COMPLIANCE intent actions; using ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_DEVICE to start provisioning will cause the provisioning to fail; to additionally support pre-Build.VERSION_CODES.S, admin apps must also continue to use this constant.

Activity action: Starts the provisioning flow which sets up a managed device. Must be started with Activity.startActivityForResult(Intent, int).

During device owner provisioning a device admin app is set as the owner of the device. A device owner has full control over the device. The device owner can not be modified by the user.

A typical use case would be a device that is owned by a company, but used by either an employee or client.

An intent with this action can be sent only on an unprovisioned device. It is possible to check if provisioning is allowed or not by querying the method isProvisioningAllowed(java.lang.String).

The intent contains the following extras:

• EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_COMPONENT_NAME
• EXTRA_PROVISIONING_SKIP_ENCRYPTION, optional
• EXTRA_PROVISIONING_LEAVE_ALL_SYSTEM_APPS_ENABLED, optional
• EXTRA_PROVISIONING_ADMIN_EXTRAS_BUNDLE, optional
• EXTRA_PROVISIONING_LOGO_URI, optional
• EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DISCLAIMERS, optional
• EXTRA_PROVISIONING_SKIP_EDUCATION_SCREENS, optional

When device owner provisioning has completed, an intent of the type DeviceAdminReceiver#ACTION_PROFILE_PROVISIONING_COMPLETE is broadcast to the device owner.

From version Build.VERSION_CODES.O, when device owner provisioning has completed, along with the above broadcast, activity intent ACTION_PROVISIONING_SUCCESSFUL will also be sent to the device owner.

If provisioning fails, the device is factory reset.

A result code of Activity.RESULT_OK implies that the synchronous part of the provisioning flow was successful, although this doesn't guarantee the full flow will succeed. Conversely a result code of Activity.RESULT_CANCELED implies that the user backed-out of provisioning, or some precondition for provisioning wasn't met.

Constant Value: "android.app.action.PROVISION_MANAGED_DEVICE"

ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE

Added in API level 21

public static final String ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE

Activity action: Starts the provisioning flow which sets up a managed profile.

It is possible to check if provisioning is allowed or not by querying the method isProvisioningAllowed(java.lang.String).

The intent may contain the following extras:

Extra		Supported Versions
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_ACCOUNT_TO_MIGRATE
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_SKIP_ENCRYPTION		Build.VERSION_CODES.N+
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_ADMIN_EXTRAS_BUNDLE
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_LOGO_URI
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_SKIP_USER_CONSENT	Can only be used by an existing device owner trying to create a managed profile
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_KEEP_ACCOUNT_ON_MIGRATION
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DISCLAIMERS
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_PACKAGE_NAME	Required if EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_COMPONENT_NAME is not specified. Must match the package name of the calling application.	Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP+
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_COMPONENT_NAME	Required if EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_PACKAGE_NAME is not specified. Package name must match the package name of the calling application.	Build.VERSION_CODES.M+
EXTRA_PROVISIONING_ALLOW_OFFLINE	On Build.VERSION_CODES.TIRAMISU+, when set to true this will force offline provisioning instead of allowing it

When managed provisioning has completed, broadcasts are sent to the application specified in the provisioning intent. The DeviceAdminReceiver#ACTION_PROFILE_PROVISIONING_COMPLETE broadcast is sent in the managed profile and the ACTION_MANAGED_PROFILE_PROVISIONED broadcast is sent in the primary profile.

From version Build.VERSION_CODES.O, when managed provisioning has completed, along with the above broadcast, activity intent ACTION_PROVISIONING_SUCCESSFUL will also be sent to the profile owner.

If provisioning fails, the managed profile is removed so the device returns to its previous state.

If launched with Activity.startActivityForResult(Intent, int) a result code of Activity.RESULT_OK indicates that the synchronous part of the provisioning flow was successful, although this doesn't guarantee the full flow will succeed. Conversely a result code of Activity.RESULT_CANCELED indicates that the user backed-out of provisioning or some precondition for provisioning wasn't met.

If a device policy management role holder updater is present on the device, an internet connection attempt must be made prior to launching this intent. If an internet connection can not be established, provisioning will fail unless EXTRA_PROVISIONING_ALLOW_OFFLINE is explicitly set to true, in which case provisioning will continue without using the device policy management role holder. If an internet connection has been established, the device policy management role holder updater will be launched, which may update the device policy management role holder before continuing provisioning.

Constant Value: "android.app.action.PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE"

ACTION_SET_NEW_PARENT_PROFILE_PASSWORD

Added in API level 24

public static final String ACTION_SET_NEW_PARENT_PROFILE_PASSWORD

Activity action: have the user enter a new password for the parent profile. If the intent is launched from within a managed profile, this will trigger entering a new password for the parent of the profile. The caller can optionally set EXTRA_DEVICE_PASSWORD_REQUIREMENT_ONLY to only enforce device-wide password requirement. In all other cases the behaviour is identical to ACTION_SET_NEW_PASSWORD.

Constant Value: "android.app.action.SET_NEW_PARENT_PROFILE_PASSWORD"

ACTION_SET_NEW_PASSWORD

Added in API level 8

public static final String ACTION_SET_NEW_PASSWORD

Activity action: have the user enter a new password.

For admin apps, this activity should be launched after using setPasswordQuality(android.content.ComponentName, int), or setPasswordMinimumLength(android.content.ComponentName, int) to have the user enter a new password that meets the current requirements. You can use isActivePasswordSufficient() to determine whether you need to have the user select a new password in order to meet the current constraints. Upon being resumed from this activity, you can check the new password characteristics to see if they are sufficient.

Non-admin apps can use getPasswordComplexity() to check the current screen lock complexity, and use this activity with extra EXTRA_PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY to suggest to users how complex the app wants the new screen lock to be. Note that both getPasswordComplexity() and the extra EXTRA_PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY require the calling app to have the permission permission#REQUEST_PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY.

If the intent is launched from within a managed profile with a profile owner built against Build.VERSION_CODES.M or before, this will trigger entering a new password for the parent of the profile. For all other cases it will trigger entering a new password for the user or profile it is launched from.

See also:

• ACTION_SET_NEW_PARENT_PROFILE_PASSWORD

Constant Value: "android.app.action.SET_NEW_PASSWORD"

ACTION_START_ENCRYPTION

Added in API level 11

public static final String ACTION_START_ENCRYPTION

Activity action: begin the process of encrypting data on the device. This activity should be launched after using setStorageEncryption(ComponentName, boolean) to request encryption be activated. After resuming from this activity, use getStorageEncryption(ComponentName) to check encryption status. However, on some devices this activity may never return, as it may trigger a reboot and in some cases a complete data wipe of the device.

Constant Value: "android.app.action.START_ENCRYPTION"

ACTION_SYSTEM_UPDATE_POLICY_CHANGED

Added in API level 23

public static final String ACTION_SYSTEM_UPDATE_POLICY_CHANGED

Public methods

acknowledgeDeviceCompliant

Added in API level 31

public void acknowledgeDeviceCompliant ()

Called by a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to acknowledge that the device is compliant and the user can turn the profile off if needed according to the maximum time off policy. This method should be called when the device is deemed compliant after getting DeviceAdminReceiver#onComplianceAcknowledgementRequired(Context, Intent) callback in case it is overridden. Before this method is called the user is still free to turn the profile off, but the timer won't be reset, so personal apps will be suspended sooner. DPCs only need acknowledging device compliance if they override DeviceAdminReceiver#onComplianceAcknowledgementRequired(Context, Intent), otherwise compliance is acknowledged automatically.

Throws
IllegalStateException	if the user isn't unlocked

See also:

• isComplianceAcknowledgementRequired()
• setManagedProfileMaximumTimeOff(ComponentName, long)
• DeviceAdminReceiver.onComplianceAcknowledgementRequired(Context, Intent)

                String packageName)

Called by the profile owner of a managed profile or a holder of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_PROFILE_INTERACTION to enable widget providers from a given package to be available in the parent profile. As a result the user will be able to add widgets from the allowlisted package running under the profile to a widget host which runs under the parent profile, for example the home screen. Note that a package may have zero or more provider components, where each component provides a different widget type.

Note: By default no widget provider package is allowlisted.

Parameters

Added in API level 28

public int addOverrideApn (ComponentName admin, 
                ApnSetting apnSetting)

Called by device owner or managed profile owner to add an override APN.

This method may returns -1 if apnSetting conflicts with an existing override APN. Update the existing conflicted APN with updateOverrideApn(android.content.ComponentName, int, android.telephony.data.ApnSetting) instead of adding a new entry.

Two override APNs are considered to conflict when all the following APIs return the same values on both override APNs:

• ApnSetting#getOperatorNumeric()
• ApnSetting#getApnName()
• ApnSetting#getProxyAddressAsString()
• ApnSetting#getProxyPort()
• ApnSetting#getMmsProxyAddressAsString()
• ApnSetting#getMmsProxyPort()
• ApnSetting#getMmsc()
• ApnSetting#isEnabled()
• ApnSetting#getMvnoType()
• ApnSetting#getProtocol()
• ApnSetting#getRoamingProtocol()

Before Android version Build.VERSION_CODES.TIRAMISU: Only device owners can add APNs.

Starting from Android version Build.VERSION_CODES.TIRAMISU: Both device owners and managed profile owners can add enterprise APNs (ApnSetting#TYPE_ENTERPRISE), while only device owners can add other type of APNs. Enterprise APNs are specific to the managed profile and do not override any user-configured VPNs. They are prerequisites for enabling preferential network service on the managed profile on 4G networks (setPreferentialNetworkServiceConfigs(List)).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with This value cannot be null.
apnSetting	ApnSetting: the override APN to insert This value cannot be null.

Returns
int	The id of inserted override APN. Or -1 when failed to insert into the database.

Throws
SecurityException	If request is for enterprise APN admin is either device owner or profile owner and in all other types of APN if admin is not a device owner.

addPersistentPreferredActivity

Added in API level 21

public void addPersistentPreferredActivity (ComponentName admin, 
                IntentFilter filter, 
                ComponentName activity)

Called by a profile owner or device owner or holder of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_LOCK_TASK. to set a default activity that the system selects to handle intents that match the given IntentFilter instead of showing the default disambiguation mechanism. This activity will remain the default intent handler even if the set of potential event handlers for the intent filter changes and if the intent preferences are reset.

Note that the target application should still declare the activity in the manifest, the API just sets the activity to be the default one to handle the given intent filter.

The default disambiguation mechanism takes over if the activity is not installed (anymore). When the activity is (re)installed, it is automatically reset as default intent handler for the filter.

Note that calling this API to set a default intent handler, only allow to avoid the default disambiguation mechanism. Implicit intents that do not trigger this mechanism (like invoking the browser) cannot be configured as they are controlled by other configurations.

The calling device admin must be a profile owner or device owner. If it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the persistent preferred activity policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#PERSISTENT_PREFERRED_ACTIVITY_POLICY
• The additional policy params bundle, which contains PolicyUpdateReceiver#EXTRA_INTENT_FILTER the intent filter the policy applies to
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

NOTE: Performs disk I/O and shouldn't be called on the main thread.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
filter	IntentFilter: The IntentFilter for which a default handler is added.
activity	ComponentName: The Activity that is added as default intent handler. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner or holder of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_LOCK_TASK.

addUserRestriction

Added in API level 21

public void addUserRestriction (ComponentName admin, 
                String key)

Called by a profile owner, device owner or a holder of any permission that is associated with a user restriction to set a user restriction specified by the key.

The calling device admin must be a profile owner, device owner or holder of any permission that is associated with a user restriction; if it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

The profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile may invoke this method on the DevicePolicyManager instance it obtained from getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), for enforcing device-wide restrictions.

See the constants in UserManager for the list of restrictions that can be enforced device-wide. These constants will also state in their documentation which permission is required to manage the restriction using this API.

For callers targeting Android Build.VERSION_CODES.UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE or above, calling this API will result in applying the restriction locally on the calling user, or locally on the parent profile if called from the DevicePolicyManager instance obtained from getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName). To set a restriction globally, call addUserRestrictionGlobally(String) instead.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the user restriction policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier returned from DevicePolicyIdentifiers#getIdentifierForUserRestriction(String)
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

                Intent serviceIntent, 
                ServiceConnection conn, 
                int flags, 
                UserHandle targetUser)

Called by a device owner to bind to a service from a secondary managed user or vice versa. See getBindDeviceAdminTargetUsers(ComponentName) for the pre-requirements of a device owner to bind to services of another managed user.

The service must be protected by Manifest.permission.BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN. Note that the Context used to obtain this DevicePolicyManager instance via Context#getSystemService(Class) will be used to bind to the Service.

Note: This method used to be available for communication between device owner and profile owner. However, since Android 11, this combination is not possible. This method is now only useful for communication between device owner and managed secondary users.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
serviceIntent	Intent: Identifies the service to connect to. The Intent must specify either an explicit component name or a package name to match an IntentFilter published by a service. This value cannot be null.
conn	ServiceConnection: Receives information as the service is started and stopped in main thread. This must be a valid ServiceConnection object; it must not be null.
flags	int: Operation options for the binding operation. See Context#bindService(Intent, ServiceConnection, int). Value is either 0 or a combination of Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE, Context.BIND_DEBUG_UNBIND, Context.BIND_NOT_FOREGROUND, Context.BIND_ABOVE_CLIENT, Context.BIND_ALLOW_OOM_MANAGEMENT, Context.BIND_WAIVE_PRIORITY, Context.BIND_IMPORTANT, Context.BIND_ADJUST_WITH_ACTIVITY, Context.BIND_NOT_PERCEPTIBLE, Context.BIND_ALLOW_ACTIVITY_STARTS, Context.BIND_INCLUDE_CAPABILITIES, Context.BIND_SHARED_ISOLATED_PROCESS, Context.BIND_PACKAGE_ISOLATED_PROCESS, and Context.BIND_EXTERNAL_SERVICE
targetUser	UserHandle: Which user to bind to. Must be one of the users returned by getBindDeviceAdminTargetUsers(ComponentName), otherwise a SecurityException will be thrown. This value cannot be null.

Returns
boolean	If you have successfully bound to the service, true is returned; false is returned if the connection is not made and you will not receive the service object.

canAdminGrantSensorsPermissions

Added in API level 31

public boolean canAdminGrantSensorsPermissions ()

Returns true if the caller is running on a device where an admin can grant permissions related to device sensors. This is a signal that the device is a fully-managed device where personal usage is discouraged. The list of permissions is listed in setPermissionGrantState(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, int). May be called by any app.

Returns
boolean	true if an admin can grant device sensors-related permissions, false otherwise.

canUsbDataSignalingBeDisabled

Added in API level 31

clearApplicationUserData

Added in API level 28

public void clearApplicationUserData (ComponentName admin, 
                String packageName, 
                Executor executor, 
                DevicePolicyManager.OnClearApplicationUserDataListener listener)

Called by the device owner or profile owner to clear application user data of a given package. The behaviour of this is equivalent to the target application calling ActivityManager.clearApplicationUserData().

Note: an application can store data outside of its application data, e.g. external storage or user dictionary. This data will not be wiped by calling this API.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
packageName	String: The name of the package which will have its user data wiped. This value cannot be null.
executor	Executor: The executor through which the listener should be invoked. This value cannot be null. Callback and listener events are dispatched through this Executor, providing an easy way to control which thread is used. To dispatch events through the main thread of your application, you can use Context.getMainExecutor(). Otherwise, provide an Executor that dispatches to an appropriate thread.
listener	DevicePolicyManager.OnClearApplicationUserDataListener: A callback object that will inform the caller when the clearing is done. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not the device owner/profile owner.

clearCrossProfileIntentFilters

Added in API level 21

public void clearCrossProfileIntentFilters (ComponentName admin)

Called by a profile owner of a managed profile to remove the cross-profile intent filters that go from the managed profile to the parent, or from the parent to the managed profile. Only removes those that have been set by the profile owner.

Note: A list of default cross profile intent filters are set up by the system when the profile is created, some of them ensure the proper functioning of the profile, while others enable sharing of data from the parent to the managed profile for user convenience. These default intent filters are not cleared when this API is called. If the default cross profile data sharing is not desired, they can be disabled with UserManager#DISALLOW_SHARE_INTO_MANAGED_PROFILE.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value may be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a profile owner.

clearDeviceOwnerApp

Added in API level 21
Deprecated in API level 26

public void clearDeviceOwnerApp (String packageName)

This method was deprecated in API level 26.
This method is expected to be used for testing purposes only. The device owner will lose control of the device and its data after calling it. In order to protect any sensitive data that remains on the device, it is advised that the device owner factory resets the device instead of calling this method. See wipeData(int).

Clears the current device owner. The caller must be the device owner. This function should be used cautiously as once it is called it cannot be undone. The device owner can only be set as a part of device setup, before it completes.

While some policies previously set by the device owner will be cleared by this method, it is a best-effort process and some other policies will still remain in place after the device owner is cleared.

Parameters
packageName	String: The package name of the device owner.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not in packageName or packageName does not own the current device owner component.

clearPackagePersistentPreferredActivities

Added in API level 21

public void clearPackagePersistentPreferredActivities (ComponentName admin, 
                String packageName)

Called by a profile owner or device owner or holder of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_LOCK_TASK to remove all persistent intent handler preferences associated with the given package that were set by addPersistentPreferredActivity(ComponentName, IntentFilter, ComponentName).

The calling device admin must be a profile owner. If it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the persistent preferred activity policy has been cleared, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully cleared or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#PERSISTENT_PREFERRED_ACTIVITY_POLICY
• The additional policy params bundle, which contains PolicyUpdateReceiver#EXTRA_INTENT_FILTER the intent filter the policy applies to
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully cleared or the reason the policy failed to be cleared (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
packageName	String: The name of the package for which preferences are removed.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner or holder of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_LOCK_TASK.

clearProfileOwner

Added in API level 24
Deprecated in API level 26

public void clearProfileOwner (ComponentName admin)

This method was deprecated in API level 26.
This method is expected to be used for testing purposes only. The profile owner will lose control of the user and its data after calling it. In order to protect any sensitive data that remains on this user, it is advised that the profile owner deletes it instead of calling this method. See wipeData(int).

Clears the active profile owner. The caller must be the profile owner of this user, otherwise a SecurityException will be thrown. This method is not available to managed profile owners.

While some policies previously set by the profile owner will be cleared by this method, it is a best-effort process and some other policies will still remain in place after the profile owner is cleared.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: The component to remove as the profile owner. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active profile owner, or the method is being called from a managed profile.

clearResetPasswordToken

Added in API level 26

public boolean clearResetPasswordToken (ComponentName admin)

Called by a profile, device owner or holder of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_RESET_PASSWORD to revoke the current password reset token.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, this method has no effect - the reset token should not have been set in the first place - and false is returned.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.

Returns
boolean	true if the operation is successful, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner and if the caller does not the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_RESET_PASSWORD.

clearUserRestriction

Added in API level 21

public void clearUserRestriction (ComponentName admin, 
                String key)

Called by a profile owner, device owner or a holder of any permission that is associated with a user restriction to clear a user restriction specified by the key.

The calling device admin must be a profile or device owner; if it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

The profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile may invoke this method on the DevicePolicyManager instance it obtained from getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), for clearing device-wide restrictions.

See the constants in UserManager for the list of restrictions. These constants state in their documentation which permission is required to manage the restriction using this API.

For callers targeting Android Build.VERSION_CODES.UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE or above, calling this API will result in clearing any local and global restriction with the specified key that was previously set by the caller.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the user restriction policy has been cleared, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully cleared or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier returned from DevicePolicyIdentifiers#getIdentifierForUserRestriction(String)
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully cleared or the reason the policy failed to be cleared (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
key	String: The key of the restriction.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner and if the caller has not been granted the permission to set the given user restriction.

createAdminSupportIntent

Added in API level 26

public Intent createAdminSupportIntent (String restriction)

Called by any app to display a support dialog when a feature was disabled by an admin. This returns an intent that can be used with Context#startActivity(Intent) to display the dialog. It will tell the user that the feature indicated by restriction was disabled by an admin, and include a link for more information. The default content of the dialog can be changed by the restricting admin via setShortSupportMessage(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.CharSequence). If the restriction is not set (i.e. the feature is available), then the return value will be null.

Parameters
restriction	String: Indicates for which feature the dialog should be displayed. Can be a user restriction from UserManager, e.g. UserManager#DISALLOW_ADJUST_VOLUME, or one of the constants POLICY_DISABLE_CAMERA or POLICY_DISABLE_SCREEN_CAPTURE. This value cannot be null.

Returns
Intent	Intent An intent to be used to start the dialog-activity if the restriction is set by an admin, or null if the restriction does not exist or no admin set it.

createAndManageUser

Added in API level 24

public UserHandle createAndManageUser (ComponentName admin, 
                String name, 
                ComponentName profileOwner, 
                PersistableBundle adminExtras, 
                int flags)

Called by a device owner to create a user with the specified name and a given component of the calling package as profile owner. The UserHandle returned by this method should not be persisted as user handles are recycled as users are removed and created. If you need to persist an identifier for this user, use UserManager#getSerialNumberForUser. The new user will not be started in the background.

admin is the DeviceAdminReceiver which is the device owner. profileOwner is also a DeviceAdminReceiver in the same package as admin, and will become the profile owner and will be registered as an active admin on the new user. The profile owner package will be installed on the new user.

If the adminExtras are not null, they will be stored on the device until the user is started for the first time. Then the extras will be passed to the admin when onEnable is called.

From Build.VERSION_CODES.P onwards, if targeting Build.VERSION_CODES.P, throws UserOperationException instead of returning null on failure.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
name	String: The user's name. This value cannot be null.
profileOwner	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver will be profile owner. Has to be in the same package as admin, otherwise no user is created and an IllegalArgumentException is thrown. This value cannot be null.
adminExtras	PersistableBundle: Extras that will be passed to onEnable of the admin receiver on the new user. This value may be null.
flags	int: SKIP_SETUP_WIZARD, MAKE_USER_EPHEMERAL and LEAVE_ALL_SYSTEM_APPS_ENABLED are supported. Value is either 0 or a combination of SKIP_SETUP_WIZARD, MAKE_USER_EPHEMERAL, android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager.MAKE_USER_DEMO, and LEAVE_ALL_SYSTEM_APPS_ENABLED

Returns
UserHandle	the UserHandle object for the created user, or null if the user could not be created.

Throws
SecurityException	if headless device is in DeviceAdminInfo#HEADLESS_DEVICE_OWNER_MODE_SINGLE_USER mode.
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner
UserManager.UserOperationException	if the user could not be created and the calling app is targeting Build.VERSION_CODES.P and running on Build.VERSION_CODES.P.

enableSystemApp

Added in API level 21

public int enableSystemApp (ComponentName admin, 
                Intent intent)

Re-enable system apps by intent that were disabled by default when the user was initialized. This function can be called by a device owner, profile owner, or by a delegate given the DELEGATION_ENABLE_SYSTEM_APP scope via setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if the caller is an enable system app delegate.
intent	Intent: An intent matching the app(s) to be installed. All apps that resolve for this intent will be re-enabled in the calling profile.

Returns
int	int The number of activities that matched the intent and were installed.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

• setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List)
• DELEGATION_PACKAGE_ACCESS

enableSystemApp

Added in API level 21

public void enableSystemApp (ComponentName admin, 
                String packageName)

Re-enable a system app that was disabled by default when the user was initialized. This function can be called by a device owner, profile owner, or by a delegate given the DELEGATION_ENABLE_SYSTEM_APP scope via setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if the caller is an enable system app delegate.
packageName	String: The package to be re-enabled in the calling profile.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

generateKeyPair

Added in API level 28

public AttestedKeyPair generateKeyPair (ComponentName admin, 
                String algorithm, 
                KeyGenParameterSpec keySpec, 
                int idAttestationFlags)

This API can be called by the following to generate a new private/public key pair:

• Device owner
• Profile owner
• Delegated certificate installer
• Credential management app
• An app that holds the Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_CERTIFICATES permission

If the device supports key generation via secure hardware, this method is useful for creating a key in KeyChain that never left the secure hardware. Access to the key is controlled the same way as in installKeyPair(ComponentName, PrivateKey, Certificate, String).

From Android Build.VERSION_CODES.S, the credential management app can call this API. If called by the credential management app, the componentName must be null. Note, there can only be a credential management app on an unmanaged device.

Because this method might take several seconds to complete, it should only be called from a worker thread. This method returns null when called from the main thread.

This method is not thread-safe, calling it from multiple threads at the same time will result in undefined behavior. If the calling thread is interrupted while the invocation is in-flight, it will eventually terminate and return null.

Note: If the provided alias is of an existing alias, all former grants that apps have been given to access the key and certificates associated with this alias will be revoked.

Attestation: to enable attestation, set an attestation challenge in keySpec via KeyGenParameterSpec.Builder#setAttestationChallenge. By specifying flags to the idAttestationFlags parameter, it is possible to request the device's unique identity to be included in the attestation record.

Specific identifiers can be included in the attestation record, and an individual attestation certificate can be used to sign the attestation record. To find out if the device supports these features, refer to isDeviceIdAttestationSupported() and isUniqueDeviceAttestationSupported().

Device owner, profile owner, their delegated certificate installer and the credential management app can use ID_TYPE_BASE_INFO to request inclusion of the general device information including manufacturer, model, brand, device and product in the attestation record. Only device owner, profile owner on an organization-owned device or affiliated user, and their delegated certificate installers can use ID_TYPE_SERIAL, ID_TYPE_IMEI and ID_TYPE_MEID to request unique device identifiers to be attested (the serial number, IMEI and MEID correspondingly), if supported by the device (see isDeviceIdAttestationSupported()). Additionally, device owner, profile owner on an organization-owned device and their delegated certificate installers can also request the attestation record to be signed using an individual attestation certificate by specifying the ID_TYPE_INDIVIDUAL_ATTESTATION flag (if supported by the device, see isUniqueDeviceAttestationSupported()).

If any of ID_TYPE_SERIAL, ID_TYPE_IMEI and ID_TYPE_MEID is set, it is implicitly assumed that ID_TYPE_BASE_INFO is also set.

Attestation using ID_TYPE_INDIVIDUAL_ATTESTATION can only be requested if key generation is done in StrongBox.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if the caller is not a device admin.
algorithm	String: The key generation algorithm, see KeyPairGenerator. This value cannot be null.
keySpec	KeyGenParameterSpec: Specification of the key to generate, see KeyPairGenerator. This value cannot be null.
idAttestationFlags	int: A bitmask of the identifiers that should be included in the attestation record (ID_TYPE_BASE_INFO, ID_TYPE_SERIAL, ID_TYPE_IMEI and ID_TYPE_MEID), and ID_TYPE_INDIVIDUAL_ATTESTATION if the attestation record should be signed using an individual attestation certificate. 0 should be passed in if no device identification is required in the attestation record and the batch attestation certificate should be used. If any flag is specified, then an attestation challenge must be included in the keySpec. Value is either 0 or a combination of ID_TYPE_BASE_INFO, ID_TYPE_SERIAL, ID_TYPE_IMEI, ID_TYPE_MEID, and ID_TYPE_INDIVIDUAL_ATTESTATION

Returns
AttestedKeyPair	A non-null AttestedKeyPair if the key generation succeeded, null otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not null and not a device or profile owner, or admin is null but the calling application is not a delegated certificate installer or credential management app. If Device ID attestation is requested (using ID_TYPE_SERIAL, ID_TYPE_IMEI or ID_TYPE_MEID), the caller must be the Device Owner or the Certificate Installer delegate.
IllegalArgumentException	in the following cases: The alias in keySpec is empty. The algorithm specification in keySpec is not RSAKeyGenParameterSpec or ECGenParameterSpec. Device ID attestation was requested but the keySpec does not contain an attestation challenge.
UnsupportedOperationException	if Device ID attestation or individual attestation was requested but the underlying hardware does not support it.
StrongBoxUnavailableException	if the use of StrongBox for key generation was specified in keySpec but the device does not have one.

• KeyGenParameterSpec.Builder.setAttestationChallenge(byte[])

getAccountTypesWithManagementDisabled

Added in API level 21

public String[] getAccountTypesWithManagementDisabled ()

installCaCert

Added in API level 21

public boolean installCaCert (ComponentName admin, 
                byte[] certBuffer)

Installs the given certificate as a user CA.

Inserted user CAs aren't automatically trusted by apps in Android 7.0 (API level 24) and higher. App developers can change the default behavior for an app by adding a Security Configuration File to the app manifest file. The caller must be a profile or device owner on that user, or a delegate package given the DELEGATION_CERT_INSTALL scope via setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List); otherwise a security exception will be thrown.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if calling from a delegated certificate installer.
certBuffer	byte: encoded form of the certificate to install.

Returns
boolean	false if the certBuffer cannot be parsed or installation is interrupted, true otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not null and not a device or profile owner.

installKeyPair

Added in API level 28

public boolean installKeyPair (ComponentName admin, 
                PrivateKey privKey, 
                Certificate[] certs, 
                String alias, 
                int flags)

This API can be called by the following to install a certificate chain and corresponding private key for the leaf certificate:

• Device owner
• Profile owner
• Delegated certificate installer
• Credential management app
• An app that holds the Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_CERTIFICATES permission

All apps within the profile will be able to access the certificate chain and use the private key, given direct user approval (if the user is allowed to select the private key).

From Android Build.VERSION_CODES.S, the credential management app can call this API. If called by the credential management app:

• The componentName must be nullr
• The alias must exist in the credential management app's AppUriAuthenticationPolicy
• The key pair must not be user selectable

Note, there can only be a credential management app on an unmanaged device.

The caller of this API may grant itself access to the certificate and private key immediately, without user approval. It is a best practice not to request this unless strictly necessary since it opens up additional security vulnerabilities.

Include INSTALLKEY_SET_USER_SELECTABLE in the flags argument to allow the user to select the key from a dialog.

Note: If the provided alias is of an existing alias, all former grants that apps have been given to access the key and certificates associated with this alias will be revoked.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if the caller is not a device admin.
privKey	PrivateKey: The private key to install. This value cannot be null.
certs	Certificate: The certificate chain to install. The chain should start with the leaf certificate and include the chain of trust in order. This will be returned by KeyChain.getCertificateChain(Context, String). This value cannot be null.
alias	String: The private key alias under which to install the certificate. If a certificate with that alias already exists, it will be overwritten. This value cannot be null.
flags	int: Flags to request that the calling app be granted access to the credentials and set the key to be user-selectable. See INSTALLKEY_SET_USER_SELECTABLE and INSTALLKEY_REQUEST_CREDENTIALS_ACCESS.

Returns
boolean	true if the keys were installed, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not null and not a device or profile owner, or admin is null but the calling application is not a delegated certificate installer, credential management app and does not have the Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_CERTIFICATES permission.

installKeyPair

Added in API level 24

public boolean installKeyPair (ComponentName admin, 
                PrivateKey privKey, 
                Certificate[] certs, 
                String alias, 
                boolean requestAccess)

This API can be called by the following to install a certificate chain and corresponding private key for the leaf certificate:

• Device owner
• Profile owner
• Delegated certificate installer
• Credential management app
• An app that holds the Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_CERTIFICATES permission

All apps within the profile will be able to access the certificate chain and use the private key, given direct user approval.

From Android Build.VERSION_CODES.S, the credential management app can call this API. However, this API sets the key pair as user selectable by default, which is not permitted when called by the credential management app. Instead, installKeyPair(android.content.ComponentName, java.security.PrivateKey, java.security.cert.Certificate[], java.lang.String, int) should be called with INSTALLKEY_SET_USER_SELECTABLE not set as a flag. Note, there can only be a credential management app on an unmanaged device.

The caller of this API may grant itself access to the certificate and private key immediately, without user approval. It is a best practice not to request this unless strictly necessary since it opens up additional security vulnerabilities.

Note: If the provided alias is of an existing alias, all former grants that apps have been given to access the key and certificates associated with this alias will be revoked.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if the caller is not a device admin.
privKey	PrivateKey: The private key to install. This value cannot be null.
certs	Certificate: The certificate chain to install. The chain should start with the leaf certificate and include the chain of trust in order. This will be returned by KeyChain.getCertificateChain(Context, String). This value cannot be null.
alias	String: The private key alias under which to install the certificate. If a certificate with that alias already exists, it will be overwritten. This value cannot be null.
requestAccess	boolean: true to request that the calling app be granted access to the credentials immediately. Otherwise, access to the credentials will be gated by user approval.

Returns
boolean	true if the keys were installed, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not null and not a device or profile owner, or admin is null and the calling application does not have the Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_CERTIFICATES permission.

installKeyPair

Added in API level 21

public boolean installKeyPair (ComponentName admin, 
                PrivateKey privKey, 
                Certificate cert, 
                String alias)

This API can be called by the following to install a certificate and corresponding private key:

• Device owner
• Profile owner
• Delegated certificate installer
• Credential management app
• An app that holds the Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_CERTIFICATES permission

All apps within the profile will be able to access the certificate and use the private key, given direct user approval.

From Android Build.VERSION_CODES.S, the credential management app can call this API. However, this API sets the key pair as user selectable by default, which is not permitted when called by the credential management app. Instead, installKeyPair(android.content.ComponentName, java.security.PrivateKey, java.security.cert.Certificate[], java.lang.String, int) should be called with INSTALLKEY_SET_USER_SELECTABLE not set as a flag.

Access to the installed credentials will not be granted to the caller of this API without direct user approval. This is for security - should a certificate installer become compromised, certificates it had already installed will be protected.

If the installer must have access to the credentials, call installKeyPair(android.content.ComponentName, java.security.PrivateKey, java.security.cert.Certificate[], java.lang.String, boolean) instead.

Note: If the provided alias is of an existing alias, all former grants that apps have been given to access the key and certificates associated with this alias will be revoked.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if the caller is not a device admin.
privKey	PrivateKey: The private key to install. This value cannot be null.
cert	Certificate: The certificate to install. This value cannot be null.
alias	String: The private key alias under which to install the certificate. If a certificate with that alias already exists, it will be overwritten. This value cannot be null.

Returns
boolean	true if the keys were installed, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not null and not a device or profile owner, or admin is null and the calling application does not have the Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_CERTIFICATES permission.

installSystemUpdate

Added in API level 29

public void installSystemUpdate (ComponentName admin, 
                Uri updateFilePath, 
                Executor executor, 
                DevicePolicyManager.InstallSystemUpdateCallback callback)

Called by device owner or profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to install a system update from the given file. The device will be rebooted in order to finish installing the update. Note that if the device is rebooted, this doesn't necessarily mean that the update has been applied successfully. The caller should additionally check the system version with Build.FINGERPRINT or Build.VERSION. If an error occurs during processing the OTA before the reboot, the caller will be notified by InstallSystemUpdateCallback. If device does not have sufficient battery level, the installation will fail with error DevicePolicyManager.InstallSystemUpdateCallback.UPDATE_ERROR_BATTERY_LOW.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: The DeviceAdminReceiver that this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin This value may be null.
updateFilePath	Uri: A Uri of the file that contains the update. The file should be readable by the calling app. This value cannot be null.
executor	Executor: The executor through which the callback should be invoked. This value cannot be null. Callback and listener events are dispatched through this Executor, providing an easy way to control which thread is used. To dispatch events through the main thread of your application, you can use Context.getMainExecutor(). Otherwise, provide an Executor that dispatches to an appropriate thread.
callback	DevicePolicyManager.InstallSystemUpdateCallback: A callback object that will inform the caller when installing an update fails. This value cannot be null.

isActivePasswordSufficient

Added in API level 8

public boolean isActivePasswordSufficient ()

Determines whether the calling user's current password meets policy requirements (e.g. quality, minimum length). The user must be unlocked to perform this check.

Policy requirements which affect this check can be set by admins of the user, but also by the admin of a managed profile associated with the calling user (when the managed profile doesn't have a separate work challenge). When a managed profile has a separate work challenge, its policy requirements only affect the managed profile.

Depending on the user, this method checks the policy requirement against one of the following passwords:

• For the primary user or secondary users: the personal keyguard password.
• For managed profiles: a work challenge if set, otherwise the parent user's personal keyguard password.
  In other words, it's always checking the requirement against the password that is protecting the calling user.

  Note that this method considers all policy requirements targeting the password in question. For example a profile owner might set a requirement on the parent profile i.e. personal keyguard but not on the profile itself. When the device has a weak personal keyguard password and no separate work challenge, calling this method will return false despite the profile owner not setting a policy on the profile itself. This is because the profile's current password is the personal keyguard password, and it does not meet all policy requirements.

  Device admins must request DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_LIMIT_PASSWORD before calling this method. Note, this policy type is deprecated for device admins in Android 9.0 (API level 28) or higher.

  This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to determine if the password set on the parent profile is sufficient.

  On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, the password is always treated as empty - i.e. this method will always return false on such devices, provided any password requirements were set.

  Returns
  boolean	true if the password meets the policy requirements, false otherwise

  Throws
  SecurityException	if the calling application isn't an active admin that uses DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_LIMIT_PASSWORD
  IllegalStateException	if the user isn't unlocked

isActivePasswordSufficientForDeviceRequirement

Added in API level 31

public boolean isActivePasswordSufficientForDeviceRequirement ()

Called by profile owner of a managed profile to determine whether the current device password meets policy requirements set explicitly device-wide.

This API is similar to isActivePasswordSufficient(), with two notable differences:

• this API always targets the device password. As a result it should always be called on the getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) instance.
• password policy requirement set on the managed profile is not taken into consideration by this API, even if the device currently does not have a separate work challenge set.

This API is designed to facilite progressive password enrollment flows when the DPC imposes both device and profile password policies. DPC applies profile password policy by calling setPasswordQuality(android.content.ComponentName, int) or setRequiredPasswordComplexity(int) on the regular DevicePolicyManager instance, while it applies device-wide policy by calling setRequiredPasswordComplexity(int) on the getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) instance. The DPC can utilize this check to guide the user to set a device password first taking into consideration the device-wide policy only, and then prompt the user to either upgrade it to be fully compliant, or enroll a separate work challenge to satisfy the profile password policy only.

The device user must be unlocked (@link UserManager#isUserUnlocked(UserHandle)) to perform this check.

Returns
boolean	true if the device password meets explicit requirement set on it, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if the calling application is not a profile owner of a managed profile, or if this API is not called on the parent DevicePolicyManager instance.
IllegalStateException	if the user isn't unlocked

Returns
boolean	true if admin is currently enabled in the system, false otherwise

isAffiliatedUser

Added in API level 28

public boolean isAffiliatedUser ()

Returns whether this user is affiliated with the device.

By definition, the user that the device owner runs on is always affiliated with the device. Any other user is considered affiliated with the device if the set specified by its profile owner via setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set) intersects with the device owner's.

Returns
boolean

See also:

• setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set)

isAlwaysOnVpnLockdownEnabled

Added in API level 29

public boolean isAlwaysOnVpnLockdownEnabled (ComponentName admin)

Returns
boolean

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or a profile owner.

See also:

• setAlwaysOnVpnPackage(ComponentName, String, boolean)

isApplicationHidden

Added in API level 21

public boolean isApplicationHidden (ComponentName admin, 
                String packageName)

Determine if a package is hidden. This function can be called by a device owner, profile owner, or by a delegate given the DELEGATION_PACKAGE_ACCESS scope via setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List).

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance, returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), where the caller must be the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile and the package must be a system package. If called on the parent instance, this will determine whether the package is hidden or unhidden in the personal profile.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, the returned policy will be the current resolved policy rather than the policy set by the calling admin.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if the caller is not a device admin.
packageName	String: The name of the package to retrieve the hidden status of.

Returns
boolean	boolean true if the package is hidden, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner or if called on the parent profile and the admin is not a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile.
IllegalArgumentException	if called on the parent profile and the package provided is not a system package.

isBackupServiceEnabled

Added in API level 26

public boolean isBackupServiceEnabled (ComponentName admin)

Return whether the backup service is enabled by the device owner or profile owner for the current user, as previously set by setBackupServiceEnabled(android.content.ComponentName, boolean).

Backup service manages all backup and restore mechanisms on the device.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: This value cannot be null.

Returns
boolean	true if backup service is enabled, false otherwise.

Returns
boolean

isCommonCriteriaModeEnabled

Added in API level 30

public boolean isCommonCriteriaModeEnabled (ComponentName admin)

Returns whether Common Criteria mode is currently enabled.

Any caller can obtain the aggregated device-wide Common Criteria mode state by passing null as the admin argument.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.

Returns
boolean	true if Common Criteria mode is enabled, false otherwise.

isComplianceAcknowledgementRequired

Added in API level 31

public boolean isComplianceAcknowledgementRequired ()

Called by a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to query whether it needs to acknowledge device compliance to allow the user to turn the profile off if needed according to the maximum profile time off policy. Normally when acknowledgement is needed the DPC gets a DeviceAdminReceiver#onComplianceAcknowledgementRequired(Context, Intent) callback. But if the callback was not delivered or handled for some reason, this method can be used to verify if acknowledgement is needed.

Returns
boolean

Throws
IllegalStateException	if the user isn't unlocked

See also:

• acknowledgeDeviceCompliant()
• setManagedProfileMaximumTimeOff(ComponentName, long)
• DeviceAdminReceiver.onComplianceAcknowledgementRequired(Context, Intent)

isDeviceFinanced

Added in API level 34

public boolean isDeviceFinanced ()

Returns true if this device is marked as a financed device.

A financed device can be entered into lock task mode (see setLockTaskPackages(ComponentName, String)) by the holder of the role android.app.role.RoleManager#ROLE_FINANCED_DEVICE_KIOSK. If this occurs, Device Owners and Profile Owners that have set lock task packages or features, or that attempt to set lock task packages or features, will receive a callback indicating that it could not be set. See PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged and PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult.

To be informed of changes to this status you can subscribe to the broadcast ACTION_DEVICE_FINANCING_STATE_CHANGED.

Returns
boolean

boolean	true if the token is active, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner and not a holder of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_RESET_PASSWORD
IllegalStateException	if no token has been set.

isSafeOperation

Added in API level 31

public boolean isSafeOperation (int reason)

Checks if it's safe to run operations that can be affected by the given reason.

Note: notice that the operation safety state might change between the time this method returns and the operation's method is called, so calls to the latter could still throw a UnsafeStateException even when this method returns true.

Parameters
reason	int: currently, only supported reason is OPERATION_SAFETY_REASON_DRIVING_DISTRACTION. Value is android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager.OPERATION_SAFETY_REASON_NONE, or OPERATION_SAFETY_REASON_DRIVING_DISTRACTION

Returns
boolean	whether it's safe to run operations that can be affected by the given reason.

isSecurityLoggingEnabled

Added in API level 24

public boolean isSecurityLoggingEnabled (ComponentName admin)

Return whether security logging is enabled or not by the admin.

Can only be called by the device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile, otherwise a SecurityException will be thrown.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which device admin this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin This value may be null.

Returns
boolean	true if security logging is enabled, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not allowed to control security logging.

isStatusBarDisabled

Added in API level 34

public boolean isStatusBarDisabled ()

Returns whether the status bar is disabled/enabled, see setStatusBarDisabled(ComponentName, boolean).

Callable by device owner or profile owner of secondary users that is affiliated with the device owner.

This policy has no effect in LockTask mode. The behavior of the status bar in LockTask mode can be configured with setLockTaskFeatures(android.content.ComponentName, int).

This policy also does not have any effect while on the lock screen, where the status bar will not be disabled.

Returns
boolean

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not the device owner, or a profile owner of secondary user that is affiliated with the device.

isUninstallBlocked

Added in API level 21

public boolean isUninstallBlocked (ComponentName admin, 
                String packageName)

Check whether the user has been blocked by device policy from uninstalling a package. Requires the caller to be the profile owner if checking a specific admin's policy.

Note: Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP_MR1, the behavior of this API is changed such that passing null as the admin parameter will return if any admin has blocked the uninstallation. Before L MR1, passing null will cause a NullPointerException to be raised.

Note: If your app targets Android 11 (API level 30) or higher, this method returns a filtered result. Learn more about how to manage package visibility.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, the returned policy will be the current resolved policy rather than the policy set by the calling admin.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: The name of the admin component whose blocking policy will be checked, or null to check whether any admin has blocked the uninstallation. Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES.UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE admin will be ignored and assumed null.
packageName	String: package to check.

Returns
boolean	true if uninstallation is blocked and the given package is visible to you, false otherwise if uninstallation isn't blocked or the given package isn't visible to you.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

isUniqueDeviceAttestationSupported

Added in API level 30

public boolean isUniqueDeviceAttestationSupported ()

Returns true if the StrongBox Keymaster implementation on the device was provisioned with an individual attestation certificate and can sign attestation records using it (as attestation using an individual attestation certificate is a feature only Keymaster implementations with StrongBox security level can implement). For use prior to calling generateKeyPair(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, android.security.keystore.KeyGenParameterSpec, int).

Returns
boolean	true if individual attestation is supported.

isUsbDataSignalingEnabled

Added in API level 31

public boolean isUsbDataSignalingEnabled ()

Returns whether USB data signaling is currently enabled.

When called by a device owner or profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile, this API returns whether USB data signaling is currently enabled by that admin. When called by any other app, returns whether USB data signaling is currently enabled on the device.

Returns
boolean	true if USB data signaling is enabled, false otherwise.

isUsingUnifiedPassword

Added in API level 28

public boolean isUsingUnifiedPassword (ComponentName admin)

When called by a profile owner of a managed profile returns true if the profile uses unified challenge with its parent user. Note: This method is not concerned with password quality and will return false if the profile has empty password as a separate challenge.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.

Returns
boolean

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a profile owner of a managed profile.

See also:

• UserManager.DISALLOW_UNIFIED_PASSWORD

listForegroundAffiliatedUsers

Added in API level 31

public List<UserHandle> listForegroundAffiliatedUsers ()

Gets the list of affiliated users running on foreground.

Returns
List<UserHandle>	list of affiliated users running on foreground. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if the calling application is not a device owner

lockNow

Added in API level 8

public void lockNow ()

Make the device lock immediately, as if the lock screen timeout has expired at the point of this call.

This method secures the device in response to an urgent situation, such as a lost or stolen device. After this method is called, the device must be unlocked using strong authentication (PIN, pattern, or password). This API is intended for use only by device admins.

From version Build.VERSION_CODES.R onwards, the caller must either have the LOCK_DEVICE permission or the device must have the device admin feature; if neither is true, then the method will return without completing any action. Before version Build.VERSION_CODES.R, the device needed the device admin feature, regardless of the caller's permissions.

The calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_FORCE_LOCK to be able to call this method; if it has not, a security exception will be thrown.

If there's no lock type set, this method forces the device to go to sleep but doesn't lock the device. Device admins who find the device in this state can lock an otherwise-insecure device by first calling resetPassword(String, int) to set the password and then lock the device.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to lock the parent profile.

NOTE: on automotive builds, this method doesn't turn off the screen as it would be a driving safety distraction.

Equivalent to calling lockNow(int) with no flags.

Throws
SecurityException	if the calling application does not own an active administrator that uses DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_FORCE_LOCK

lockNow

Added in API level 26

public void lockNow (int flags)

Make the device lock immediately, as if the lock screen timeout has expired at the point of this call.

This method secures the device in response to an urgent situation, such as a lost or stolen device. After this method is called, the device must be unlocked using strong authentication (PIN, pattern, or password). This API is intended for use only by device admins.

From version Build.VERSION_CODES.R onwards, the caller must either have the LOCK_DEVICE permission or the device must have the device admin feature; if neither is true, then the method will return without completing any action. Before version Build.VERSION_CODES.R, the device needed the device admin feature, regardless of the caller's permissions.

A calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_FORCE_LOCK to be able to call this method; if it has not, a security exception will be thrown.

If there's no lock type set, this method forces the device to go to sleep but doesn't lock the device. Device admins who find the device in this state can lock an otherwise-insecure device by first calling resetPassword(String, int) to set the password and then lock the device.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to lock the parent profile as well as the managed profile.

NOTE: In order to lock the parent profile and evict the encryption key of the managed profile, lockNow() must be called twice: First, lockNow() should be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), then lockNow(int) should be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance associated with the managed profile, with the FLAG_EVICT_CREDENTIAL_ENCRYPTION_KEY flag. Calling the method twice in this order ensures that all users are locked and does not stop the device admin on the managed profile from issuing a second call to lock its own profile.

NOTE: on automotive builds, this method doesn't turn off the screen as it would be a driving safety distraction.

Parameters
flags	int: May be 0 or FLAG_EVICT_CREDENTIAL_ENCRYPTION_KEY. Value is either 0 or FLAG_EVICT_CREDENTIAL_ENCRYPTION_KEY

Throws
SecurityException	if the calling application does not own an active administrator that uses DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_FORCE_LOCK and the does not hold the ERROR(/android.Manifest.permission#LOCK_DEVICE) permission, or the FLAG_EVICT_CREDENTIAL_ENCRYPTION_KEY flag is passed by an application that is not a profile owner of a managed profile.
IllegalArgumentException	if the FLAG_EVICT_CREDENTIAL_ENCRYPTION_KEY flag is passed when locking the parent profile.
UnsupportedOperationException	if the FLAG_EVICT_CREDENTIAL_ENCRYPTION_KEY flag is passed when getStorageEncryptionStatus() does not return ENCRYPTION_STATUS_ACTIVE_PER_USER.

logoutUser

Added in API level 28

public int logoutUser (ComponentName admin)

Called by a profile owner of secondary user that is affiliated with the device to stop the calling user and switch back to primary user (when the user was switchUser(android.content.ComponentName, android.os.UserHandle) switched to) or stop the user (when it was started in background.

Notice that on devices running with headless system user mode, there is no primary user, so it switches back to the user that was in the foreground before the first call to switchUser(android.content.ComponentName, android.os.UserHandle) (or fails with UserManager#USER_OPERATION_ERROR_UNKNOWN if that method was not called prior to this call).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.

• isAffiliatedUser()

resetPassword

Added in API level 8
Deprecated in API level 30

public boolean resetPassword (String password, 
                int flags)

This method was deprecated in API level 30.
Please use resetPasswordWithToken(ComponentName, String, byte, int) instead.

Force a new password for device unlock (the password needed to access the entire device) or the work profile challenge on the current user. This takes effect immediately.

Before Build.VERSION_CODES.N, this API is available to device admin, profile owner and device owner. Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES.N, legacy device admin (who is not also profile owner or device owner) can only call this API to set a new password if there is currently no password set. Profile owner and device owner can continue to force change an existing password as long as the target user is unlocked, although device owner will not be able to call this API at all if there is also a managed profile on the device.

Between Build.VERSION_CODES.O, Build.VERSION_CODES.P and Build.VERSION_CODES.Q, profile owner and devices owner targeting SDK level Build.VERSION_CODES.O or above who attempt to call this API will receive SecurityException; they are encouraged to migrate to the new resetPasswordWithToken(ComponentName, String, byte, int) API instead. Profile owner and device owner targeting older SDK levels are not affected: they continue to experience the existing behaviour described in the previous paragraph.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES.R, this API is no longer supported in most cases. Device owner and profile owner calling this API will receive SecurityException if they target SDK level Build.VERSION_CODES.O or above, or they will receive a silent failure (API returning false) if they target lower SDK level. For legacy device admins, this API throws SecurityException if they target SDK level Build.VERSION_CODES.N or above, and returns false otherwise. Only privileged apps holding RESET_PASSWORD permission which are part of the system factory image can still call this API to set a new password if there is currently no password set. In this case, if the device already has a password, this API will throw SecurityException.

The given password must be sufficient for the current password quality and length constraints as returned by getPasswordQuality(android.content.ComponentName) and getPasswordMinimumLength(android.content.ComponentName); if it does not meet these constraints, then it will be rejected and false returned. Note that the password may be a stronger quality (containing alphanumeric characters when the requested quality is only numeric), in which case the currently active quality will be increased to match.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, this methods does nothing.

The calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_RESET_PASSWORD to be able to call this method; if it has not, a security exception will be thrown.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

Parameters
password	String: The new password for the user. Null or empty clears the password.
flags	int: May be 0 or combination of RESET_PASSWORD_REQUIRE_ENTRY and RESET_PASSWORD_DO_NOT_ASK_CREDENTIALS_ON_BOOT.

Returns
boolean	Returns true if the password was applied, or false if it is not acceptable for the current constraints.

Throws
SecurityException	if the calling application does not own an active administrator that uses DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_RESET_PASSWORD
IllegalStateException	if the calling user is locked or has a managed profile.

resetPasswordWithToken

Added in API level 26

public boolean resetPasswordWithToken (ComponentName admin, 
                String password, 
                byte[] token, 
                int flags)

Called by device or profile owner to force set a new device unlock password or a managed profile challenge on current user. This takes effect immediately.

Unlike resetPassword(String, int), this API can change the password even before the user or device is unlocked or decrypted. The supplied token must have been previously provisioned via setResetPasswordToken(ComponentName, byte), and in active state isResetPasswordTokenActive(ComponentName).

The given password must be sufficient for the current password quality and length constraints as returned by getPasswordQuality(android.content.ComponentName) and getPasswordMinimumLength(android.content.ComponentName); if it does not meet these constraints, then it will be rejected and false returned. Note that the password may be a stronger quality, for example, a password containing alphanumeric characters when the requested quality is only numeric.

Calling with a null or empty password will clear any existing PIN, pattern or password if the current password constraints allow it.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, calling this methods has no effect - the password is always empty - and false is returned.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
password	String: The new password for the user. null or empty clears the password.
token	byte: the password reset token previously provisioned by setResetPasswordToken(ComponentName, byte).
flags	int: May be 0 or combination of RESET_PASSWORD_REQUIRE_ENTRY and RESET_PASSWORD_DO_NOT_ASK_CREDENTIALS_ON_BOOT.

Returns
boolean	Returns true if the password was applied, or false if it is not acceptable for the current constraints.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.
IllegalStateException	if the provided token is not valid.

retrieveNetworkLogs

Added in API level 26

public List<NetworkEvent> retrieveNetworkLogs (ComponentName admin, 
                long batchToken)

Called by device owner, profile owner of a managed profile or delegated app with DELEGATION_NETWORK_LOGGING to retrieve the most recent batch of network logging events.

When network logging is enabled by a profile owner, the network logs will only include work profile network activity, not activity on the personal profile. A device owner or profile owner has to provide a batchToken provided as part of DeviceAdminReceiver#onNetworkLogsAvailable callback. If the token doesn't match the token of the most recent available batch of logs, null will be returned.

NetworkEvent can be one of DnsEvent or ConnectEvent.

The list of network events is sorted chronologically, and contains at most 1200 events.

Access to the logs is rate limited and this method will only return a new batch of logs after the device device owner has been notified via DeviceAdminReceiver#onNetworkLogsAvailable.

If the caller is not a profile owner and a secondary user or profile is created, calling this method will throw a SecurityException until all users become affiliated again. It will also no longer be possible to retrieve the network logs batch with the most recent batchToken provided by DeviceAdminReceiver#onNetworkLogsAvailable. See DevicePolicyManager#setAffiliationIds.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if called by a delegated app.
batchToken	long: A token of the batch to retrieve

Returns
List<NetworkEvent>	A new batch of network logs which is a list of NetworkEvent. Returns null if the batch represented by batchToken is no longer available or if logging is disabled.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner, profile owner or if the admin is not a profile owner and there is at least one profile or secondary user that is not affiliated with the device.

• setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set)
• DeviceAdminReceiver.onNetworkLogsAvailable(Context, Intent, long, int)

retrievePreRebootSecurityLogs

Added in API level 24

public List<SecurityLog.SecurityEvent> retrievePreRebootSecurityLogs (ComponentName admin)

Called by device owner or profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to retrieve device logs from before the device's last reboot.

This API is not supported on all devices. Calling this API on unsupported devices will result in null being returned. The device logs are retrieved from a RAM region which is not guaranteed to be corruption-free during power cycles, as a result be cautious about data corruption when parsing.

When called by a device owner, if there is any other user or profile on the device, it must be affiliated with the device. Otherwise a SecurityException will be thrown. See isAffiliatedUser().

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which device admin this request is associated with, or null if called by a delegated app.

Returns
List<SecurityLog.SecurityEvent>	Device logs from before the latest reboot of the system, or null if this API is not supported on the device.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not allowed to access security logging, or there is at least one profile or secondary user that is not affiliated with the device.

See also:

• isAffiliatedUser()
• retrieveSecurityLogs(ComponentName)

retrieveSecurityLogs

Added in API level 24

public List<SecurityLog.SecurityEvent> retrieveSecurityLogs (ComponentName admin)

Called by device owner or profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to retrieve all new security logging entries since the last call to this API after device boots.

Access to the logs is rate limited and it will only return new logs after the admin has been notified via DeviceAdminReceiver#onSecurityLogsAvailable.

When called by a device owner, if there is any other user or profile on the device, it must be affiliated with the device. Otherwise a SecurityException will be thrown. See isAffiliatedUser().

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which device admin this request is associated with, or null if called by a delegated app.

Returns
List<SecurityLog.SecurityEvent>	the new batch of security logs which is a list of SecurityEvent, or null if rate limitation is exceeded or if logging is currently disabled.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not allowed to access security logging, or there is at least one profile or secondary user that is not affiliated with the device.

• isAffiliatedUser()
• DeviceAdminReceiver.onSecurityLogsAvailable(Context, Intent)

revokeKeyPairFromApp

Added in API level 30

public boolean revokeKeyPairFromApp (ComponentName admin, 
                String alias, 
                String packageName)

Called by a device or profile owner, or delegated certificate chooser (an app that has been delegated the DELEGATION_CERT_SELECTION privilege), to revoke an application's grant to a KeyChain key pair. Calls by the application to KeyChain.getPrivateKey(Context, String) will fail after the grant is revoked. The grantee app will receive the KeyChain.ACTION_KEY_ACCESS_CHANGED broadcast when access to a key is revoked. Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES.UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE throws an IllegalArgumentException if alias doesn't correspond to an existing key.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if calling from a delegated certificate chooser.
alias	String: The alias of the key to revoke access from. This value cannot be null.
packageName	String: The name of the (already installed) package to revoke access from. This value cannot be null.

Returns
boolean	true if the grant was revoked successfully, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not a device owner, a profile owner or delegated certificate chooser.
IllegalArgumentException	if packageName or alias are empty, or if packageName is not a name of an installed package.

See also:

• grantKeyPairToApp(ComponentName, String, String)

revokeKeyPairFromWifiAuth

Added in API level 31

public boolean revokeKeyPairFromWifiAuth (String alias)

Called by a device or profile owner, or delegated certificate chooser (an app that has been delegated the DELEGATION_CERT_SELECTION privilege), to deny using a KeyChain key pair for authentication to Wifi networks. Configured networks using this key won't be able to authenticate. Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES.UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE throws an IllegalArgumentException if alias doesn't correspond to an existing key.

Parameters
alias	String: The alias of the key pair. This value cannot be null.

Returns
boolean	true if the operation was set successfully, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not a device owner, a profile owner or delegated certificate chooser.

See also:

• grantKeyPairToWifiAuth(String)

setAccountManagementDisabled

Added in API level 21

public void setAccountManagementDisabled (ComponentName admin, 
                String accountType, 
                boolean disabled)

Called by a device owner or profile owner to disable account management for a specific type of account.

The calling device admin must be a device owner or profile owner. If it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

When account management is disabled for an account type, adding or removing an account of that type will not be possible.

From Build.VERSION_CODES.N the profile or device owner can still use AccountManager APIs to add or remove accounts when account management for a specific type is disabled.

This method may be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned from getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) by the profile owner on an organization-owned device, to restrict accounts that may not be managed on the primary profile.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the account management disabled policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#ACCOUNT_MANAGEMENT_DISABLED_POLICY
• The additional policy params bundle, which contains PolicyUpdateReceiver#EXTRA_ACCOUNT_TYPE the account type the policy applies to
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
accountType	String: For which account management is disabled or enabled.
disabled	boolean: The boolean indicating that account management will be disabled (true) or enabled (false).

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setAffiliationIds

Added in API level 26

public void setAffiliationIds (ComponentName admin, 
                Set<String> ids)

Indicates the entity that controls the device. Two users are affiliated if the set of ids set by the device owner and the admin of the secondary user.

A user that is affiliated with the device owner user is considered to be affiliated with the device.

Note: Features that depend on user affiliation (such as security logging or bindDeviceAdminServiceAsUser(ComponentName, Intent, ServiceConnection, BindServiceFlags, UserHandle)) won't be available when a secondary user is created, until it becomes affiliated. Therefore it is recommended that the appropriate affiliation ids are set by its owner as soon as possible after the user is created.

Note: This method used to be available for affiliating device owner and profile owner. However, since Android 11, this combination is not possible. This method is now only useful for affiliating the primary user with managed secondary users.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which device owner, or owner of secondary user, this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
ids	Set: A set of opaque non-empty affiliation ids. This value cannot be null.

Throws
IllegalArgumentException	if ids is null or contains an empty string.

setAlwaysOnVpnPackage

Added in API level 24

public void setAlwaysOnVpnPackage (ComponentName admin, 
                String vpnPackage, 
                boolean lockdownEnabled)

Called by a device or profile owner to configure an always-on VPN connection through a specific application for the current user. This connection is automatically granted and persisted after a reboot.

To support the always-on feature, an app must

• declare a VpnService in its manifest, guarded by Manifest.permission.BIND_VPN_SERVICE;
• target API 24 or above; and
• not explicitly opt out of the feature through VpnService.SERVICE_META_DATA_SUPPORTS_ALWAYS_ON.

The call will fail if called with the package name of an unsupported VPN app.

Enabling lockdown via lockdownEnabled argument carries the risk that any failure of the VPN provider could break networking for all apps. This method clears any lockdown allowlist set by setAlwaysOnVpnPackage(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, boolean, java.util.Set).

Starting from API 31 calling this method with vpnPackage set to null only removes the existing configuration if it was previously created by this admin. To remove VPN configuration created by the user use UserManager#DISALLOW_CONFIG_VPN.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: This value cannot be null.
vpnPackage	String: The package name for an installed VPN app on the device, or null to remove an existing always-on VPN configuration.
lockdownEnabled	boolean: true to disallow networking when the VPN is not connected or false otherwise. This has no effect when clearing.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or a profile owner.
PackageManager.NameNotFoundException	if vpnPackage is not installed.
UnsupportedOperationException	if vpnPackage exists but does not support being set as always-on, or if always-on VPN is not available.

setAlwaysOnVpnPackage

Added in API level 29

public void setAlwaysOnVpnPackage (ComponentName admin, 
                String vpnPackage, 
                boolean lockdownEnabled, 
                Set<String> lockdownAllowlist)

A version of setAlwaysOnVpnPackage(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, boolean) that allows the admin to specify a set of apps that should be able to access the network directly when VPN is not connected. When VPN connects these apps switch over to VPN if allowed to use that VPN. System apps can always bypass VPN.

Note that the system doesn't update the allowlist when packages are installed or uninstalled, the admin app must call this method to keep the list up to date.

When lockdownEnabled is false lockdownAllowlist is ignored . When lockdownEnabled is true and lockdownAllowlist is null or empty, only system apps can bypass VPN.

Setting always-on VPN package to null or using setAlwaysOnVpnPackage(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, boolean) clears lockdown allowlist.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: This value cannot be null.
vpnPackage	String: package name for an installed VPN app on the device, or null to remove an existing always-on VPN configuration
lockdownEnabled	boolean: true to disallow networking when the VPN is not connected or false otherwise. This has no effect when clearing.
lockdownAllowlist	Set: Packages that will be able to access the network directly when VPN is in lockdown mode but not connected. Has no effect when clearing. This value may be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or a profile owner.
PackageManager.NameNotFoundException	if vpnPackage or one of lockdownAllowlist is not installed.
UnsupportedOperationException	if vpnPackage exists but does not support being set as always-on, or if always-on VPN is not available.

setApplicationHidden

Added in API level 21

public boolean setApplicationHidden (ComponentName admin, 
                String packageName, 
                boolean hidden)

Hide or unhide packages. When a package is hidden it is unavailable for use, but the data and actual package file remain. This function can be called by a device owner, profile owner, or by a delegate given the DELEGATION_PACKAGE_ACCESS scope via setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List).

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance, returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), where the caller must be the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile and the package must be a system package. If called on the parent instance, then the package is hidden or unhidden in the personal profile.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the application hidden policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#APPLICATION_HIDDEN_POLICY
• The additional policy params bundle, which contains PolicyUpdateReceiver#EXTRA_PACKAGE_NAME the package name the policy applies to
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if the caller is not a device admin.
packageName	String: The name of the package to hide or unhide.
hidden	boolean: true if the package should be hidden, false if it should be unhidden.

Returns
boolean	boolean Whether the hidden setting of the package was successfully updated.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner or if called on the parent profile and the admin is not a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile.
IllegalArgumentException	if called on the parent profile and the package provided is not a system package.

setApplicationRestrictions

Added in API level 21

public void setApplicationRestrictions (ComponentName admin, 
                String packageName, 
                Bundle settings)

Sets the application restrictions for a given target application running in the calling user.

The caller must be a profile or device owner on that user, or the package allowed to manage application restrictions via setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List) with the DELEGATION_APP_RESTRICTIONS scope; otherwise a security exception will be thrown.

The provided Bundle consists of key-value pairs, where the types of values may be:

• boolean
• int
• String or String[]
• From Build.VERSION_CODES.M, Bundle or Bundle[]

If the restrictions are not available yet, but may be applied in the near future, the caller can notify the target application of that by adding UserManager#KEY_RESTRICTIONS_PENDING to the settings parameter.

The application restrictions are only made visible to the target application via UserManager#getApplicationRestrictions(String), in addition to the profile or device owner, and the application restrictions managing package via getApplicationRestrictions(ComponentName, String).

Starting from Android Version Build.VERSION_CODES.UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, multiple admins can set app restrictions for the same application, the target application can get the list of app restrictions set by each admin via RestrictionsManager.getApplicationRestrictionsPerAdmin().

Starting from Android Version Build.VERSION_CODES.VANILLA_ICE_CREAM, the device policy management role holder can also set app restrictions on any applications in the calling user, as well as the parent user of an organization-owned managed profile via the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName). App restrictions set by the device policy management role holder are not returned by UserManager#getApplicationRestrictions(String). The target application should use RestrictionsManager.getApplicationRestrictionsPerAdmin() to retrieve them, alongside any app restrictions the profile or device owner might have set.

NOTE: The method performs disk I/O and shouldn't be called on the main thread
This method may take several seconds to complete, so it should only be called from a worker thread.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if called by the application restrictions managing package.
packageName	String: The name of the package to update restricted settings for.
settings	Bundle: A Bundle to be parsed by the receiving application, conveying a new set of active restrictions.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setAutoTimeEnabled

Added in API level 30

public void setAutoTimeEnabled (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean enabled)

Called by a device owner, a profile owner for the primary user or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to turn auto time on and off. Callers are recommended to use UserManager#DISALLOW_CONFIG_DATE_TIME to prevent the user from changing this setting.

If user restriction UserManager#DISALLOW_CONFIG_DATE_TIME is used, no user will be able set the date and time. Instead, the network date and time will be used.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
enabled	boolean: Whether time should be obtained automatically from the network or not.

Throws

setAutoTimeRequired

Added in API level 21
Deprecated in API level 30

public void setAutoTimeRequired (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean required)

This method was deprecated in API level 30.
From Build.VERSION_CODES.R. Use setAutoTimeEnabled(ComponentName, boolean) to turn auto time on or off and use UserManager#DISALLOW_CONFIG_DATE_TIME to prevent the user from changing this setting.

Called by a device owner, or alternatively a profile owner from Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher, to set whether auto time is required. If auto time is required, no user will be able set the date and time and network date and time will be used.

Note: If auto time is required the user can still manually set the time zone. Staring from Android 11, if auto time is required, the user cannot manually set the time zone.

The calling device admin must be a device owner, or alternatively a profile owner from Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher. If it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

Staring from Android 11, this API switches to use UserManager#DISALLOW_CONFIG_DATE_TIME to enforce the auto time settings. Calling this API to enforce auto time will result in UserManager#DISALLOW_CONFIG_DATE_TIME being set, while calling this API to lift the requirement will result in UserManager#DISALLOW_CONFIG_DATE_TIME being cleared. From Android 11, this API can also no longer be called on a managed profile.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
required	boolean: Whether auto time is set required or not.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner, not a profile owner or if this API is called on a managed profile.

setBackupServiceEnabled

Added in API level 26

public void setBackupServiceEnabled (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean enabled)

Allows the device owner or profile owner to enable or disable the backup service.

Each user has its own backup service which manages the backup and restore mechanisms in that user. Disabling the backup service will prevent data from being backed up or restored.

Device owner calls this API to control backup services across all users on the device. Profile owner can use this API to enable or disable the profile's backup service. However, for a managed profile its backup functionality is only enabled if both the device owner and the profile owner have enabled the backup service.

By default, backup service is disabled on a device with device owner, and within a managed profile.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
enabled	boolean: true to enable the backup service, false to disable it.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner or a profile owner.

setBluetoothContactSharingDisabled

Added in API level 23

public void setBluetoothContactSharingDisabled (ComponentName admin,

Called by a profile owner of a managed profile to set whether bluetooth devices can access enterprise contacts.

The calling device admin must be a profile owner. If it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

This API works on managed profile only.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
disabled	boolean: If true, bluetooth devices cannot access enterprise contacts.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a profile owner.

setCameraDisabled

Added in API level 14

public void setCameraDisabled (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean disabled)

Called by an application that is administering the device to disable all cameras on the device, for this user. After setting this, no applications running as this user will be able to access any cameras on the device.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance, returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), where the caller must be the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile.

If the caller is device owner, then the restriction will be applied to all users. If called on the parent instance, then the restriction will be applied on the personal profile.

The calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_DISABLE_CAMERA to be able to call this method; if it has not, a security exception will be thrown.

Note, this policy type is deprecated for legacy device admins since Build.VERSION_CODES.Q. On Android Build.VERSION_CODES.Q devices, legacy device admins targeting SDK version Build.VERSION_CODES.P or below can still call this API to disable camera, while legacy device admins targeting SDK version Build.VERSION_CODES.Q will receive a SecurityException. Starting from Android Build.VERSION_CODES.R, requests to disable camera from legacy device admins targeting SDK version Build.VERSION_CODES.P or below will be silently ignored.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the camera disabled policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier: userRestriction_no_camera
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with or null if the caller is not a device admin
disabled	boolean: Whether or not the camera should be disabled.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active administrator or does not use DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_DISABLE_CAMERA.

setCertInstallerPackage

Added in API level 23
Deprecated in API level 26

public void setCertInstallerPackage (ComponentName admin, 
                String installerPackage)

This method was deprecated in API level 26.
From Build.VERSION_CODES.O. Use setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List) with the DELEGATION_CERT_INSTALL scope instead.

Called by a profile owner or device owner to grant access to privileged certificate manipulation APIs to a third-party certificate installer app. Granted APIs include getInstalledCaCerts(ComponentName), hasCaCertInstalled(ComponentName, byte), installCaCert(ComponentName, byte), uninstallCaCert(ComponentName, byte), uninstallAllUserCaCerts(ComponentName) and installKeyPair(ComponentName, PrivateKey, Certificate, String).

Delegated certificate installer is a per-user state. The delegated access is persistent until it is later cleared by calling this method with a null value or uninstallling the certificate installer.

Note:Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES.N, if the caller application's target SDK version is Build.VERSION_CODES.N or newer, the supplied certificate installer package must be installed when calling this API, otherwise an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
installerPackage	String: The package name of the certificate installer which will be given access. If null is given the current package will be cleared.

enabled	boolean: whether Common Criteria mode should be enabled or not.

setConfiguredNetworksLockdownState

Added in API level 30

public void setConfiguredNetworksLockdownState (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean lockdown)

Called by a device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to control whether the user can change networks configured by the admin. When this lockdown is enabled, the user can still configure and connect to other Wi-Fi networks, or use other Wi-Fi capabilities such as tethering.

WiFi network configuration lockdown is controlled by a global settings Settings.Global.WIFI_DEVICE_OWNER_CONFIGS_LOCKDOWN and calling this API effectively modifies the global settings. Previously device owners can also control this directly via setGlobalSetting(ComponentName, String, String) but they are recommended to switch to this API.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: admin Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
lockdown	boolean: Whether the admin configured networks should be unmodifiable by the user.

This function can only be called by the device owner, a profile owner of an affiliated user or profile, or the profile owner when no device owner is set or holders of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_CONTENT_PROTECTION. See isAffiliatedUser(). Any policy set via this method will be cleared if the user becomes unaffiliated.

After the content protection policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#CONTENT_PROTECTION_POLICY
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
policy	int: The content protection policy to set. One of CONTENT_PROTECTION_NOT_CONTROLLED_BY_POLICY, CONTENT_PROTECTION_DISABLED or CONTENT_PROTECTION_ENABLED. Value is CONTENT_PROTECTION_NOT_CONTROLLED_BY_POLICY, CONTENT_PROTECTION_DISABLED, or CONTENT_PROTECTION_ENABLED

A PackagePolicy#PACKAGE_POLICY_BLOCKLIST policy type will block the credential providers listed in the policy from being used by the user.

Parameters
policy	PackagePolicy: the policy to set, setting this value to null will allow all packages

Throws
SecurityException	if caller is not a device owner or profile owner of a managed profile

setCrossProfileCalendarPackages

Added in API level 29
Deprecated in API level 34

public void setCrossProfileCalendarPackages (ComponentName admin, 
                Set<String> packageNames)

This method was deprecated in API level 34.
Use setCrossProfilePackages(android.content.ComponentName, java.util.Set).

Allows a set of packages to access cross-profile calendar APIs.

Called by a profile owner of a managed profile.

Calling with a null value for the set disables the restriction so that all packages are allowed to access cross-profile calendar APIs. Calling with an empty set disallows all packages from accessing cross-profile calendar APIs. If this method isn't called, no package is allowed to access cross-profile calendar APIs by default.

Parameters

packageNames	Set: the new cross-profile package names This value cannot be null.

setDefaultDialerApplication

Added in API level 34

public void setDefaultDialerApplication (String packageName)

Must be called by a device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to set the default dialer application for the calling user.

When the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile calls this method, it sets the default dialer application in the work profile. This is only meaningful when work profile telephony is enabled by setManagedSubscriptionsPolicy(ManagedSubscriptionsPolicy).

If the device does not support telephony (PackageManager#FEATURE_TELEPHONY), calling this method will do nothing.

Parameters
packageName	String: The name of the package to set as the default dialer application. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile.
IllegalArgumentException	if the package cannot be set as the default dialer, for example if the package is not installed or does not expose the expected activities or services that a dialer app is required to have.

setDefaultSmsApplication

Added in API level 29

public void setDefaultSmsApplication (ComponentName admin, 
                String packageName)

Must be called by a device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to set the default SMS application.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance, returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), where the caller must be the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile and the package must be a pre-installed system package. If called on the parent instance, then the default SMS application is set on the personal profile.

Starting from Android Build.VERSION_CODES.UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile can also call this method directly (not on the parent profile instance) to set the default SMS application in the work profile. This is only meaningful when work profile telephony is enabled by setManagedSubscriptionsPolicy(ManagedSubscriptionsPolicy).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
packageName	String: The name of the package to set as the default SMS application. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner or if called on the parent profile and the admin is not a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile.
IllegalArgumentException	if called on the parent profile and the package provided is not a pre-installed system package.
IllegalStateException	while trying to set default sms app on the profile and ManagedSubscriptionsPolicy#TYPE_ALL_MANAGED_SUBSCRIPTIONS policy is not set.

setDelegatedScopes

Added in API level 26

public void setDelegatedScopes (ComponentName admin, 
                String delegatePackage, 
                List<String> scopes)

Called by a profile owner or device owner to grant access to privileged APIs to another app. Granted APIs are determined by scopes, which is a list of the DELEGATION_* constants.

A broadcast with the ACTION_APPLICATION_DELEGATION_SCOPES_CHANGED action will be sent to the delegatePackage with its new scopes in an ArrayList<String> extra under the EXTRA_DELEGATION_SCOPES key. The broadcast is sent with the Intent#FLAG_RECEIVER_REGISTERED_ONLY flag.

Delegated scopes are a per-user state. The delegated access is persistent until it is later cleared by calling this method with an empty scopes list or uninstalling the delegatePackage.

Parameters

setDeviceOwnerLockScreenInfo

Added in API level 24

public void setDeviceOwnerLockScreenInfo (ComponentName admin, 
                CharSequence info)

Sets the device owner information to be shown on the lock screen.

Device owner information set using this method overrides any owner information manually set by the user and prevents the user from further changing it.

If the device owner information is null or empty then the device owner info is cleared and the user owner info is shown on the lock screen if it is set.

If the device owner information contains only whitespaces then the message on the lock screen will be blank and the user will not be allowed to change it.

If the device owner information needs to be localized, it is the responsibility of the DeviceAdminReceiver to listen to the Intent#ACTION_LOCALE_CHANGED broadcast and set a new version of this string accordingly.

May be called by the device owner or the profile owner of an organization-owned device.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: The name of the admin component to check. This value cannot be null.
info	CharSequence: Device owner information which will be displayed instead of the user owner info.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner.

Added in API level 28

public void setEndUserSessionMessage (ComponentName admin, 
                CharSequence endUserSessionMessage)

Called by a device owner to specify the user session end message. This may be displayed during a user switch.

The message should be limited to a short statement or it may be truncated.

If the message needs to be localized, it is the responsibility of the DeviceAdminReceiver to listen to the Intent#ACTION_LOCALE_CHANGED broadcast and set a new version of this message accordingly.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
endUserSessionMessage	CharSequence: message for ending user session, or null to use system default message.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner.

setFactoryResetProtectionPolicy

Added in API level 30

public void setFactoryResetProtectionPolicy (ComponentName admin, 
                FactoryResetProtectionPolicy policy)

Callable by device owner or profile owner of an organization-owned device, to set a factory reset protection (FRP) policy. When a new policy is set, the system notifies the FRP management agent of a policy change by broadcasting ACTION_RESET_PROTECTION_POLICY_CHANGED.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin This value may be null.
policy	FactoryResetProtectionPolicy: the new FRP policy, or null to clear the current policy.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned device.
UnsupportedOperationException	if factory reset protection is not supported on the device.

setGlobalPrivateDnsModeOpportunistic

Added in API level 29

public int setGlobalPrivateDnsModeOpportunistic (ComponentName admin)

Sets the global Private DNS mode to opportunistic. May only be called by the device owner.

In this mode, the DNS subsystem will attempt a TLS handshake to the network-supplied resolver prior to attempting name resolution in cleartext.

Note: The device owner won't be able to set the global private DNS mode if there are unaffiliated secondary users or profiles on the device. It's recommended that affiliation ids are set for new users as soon as possible after provisioning via setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.

Returns
int	PRIVATE_DNS_SET_NO_ERROR if the mode was set successfully, or PRIVATE_DNS_SET_ERROR_FAILURE_SETTING if it could not be set. Value is PRIVATE_DNS_SET_NO_ERROR, PRIVATE_DNS_SET_ERROR_HOST_NOT_SERVING, or PRIVATE_DNS_SET_ERROR_FAILURE_SETTING

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not the device owner.

setGlobalPrivateDnsModeSpecifiedHost

Added in API level 29

public int setGlobalPrivateDnsModeSpecifiedHost (ComponentName admin, 
                String privateDnsHost)

Sets the global Private DNS host to be used. May only be called by the device owner.

Note that the method is blocking as it will perform a connectivity check to the resolver, to ensure it is valid. Because of that, the method should not be called on any thread that relates to user interaction, such as the UI thread.

In case a VPN is used in conjunction with Private DNS resolver, the Private DNS resolver must be reachable both from within and outside the VPN. Otherwise, the device may lose the ability to resolve hostnames as system traffic to the resolver may not go through the VPN.

Note: The device owner won't be able to set the global private DNS mode if there are unaffiliated secondary users or profiles on the device. It's recommended that affiliation ids are set for new users as soon as possible after provisioning via setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set).
This method may take several seconds to complete, so it should only be called from a worker thread.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
privateDnsHost	String: The hostname of a server that implements DNS over TLS (RFC7858). This value cannot be null.

Returns
int	PRIVATE_DNS_SET_NO_ERROR if the mode was set successfully, PRIVATE_DNS_SET_ERROR_FAILURE_SETTING if it could not be set or PRIVATE_DNS_SET_ERROR_HOST_NOT_SERVING if the specified host does not implement RFC7858. Value is PRIVATE_DNS_SET_NO_ERROR, PRIVATE_DNS_SET_ERROR_HOST_NOT_SERVING, or PRIVATE_DNS_SET_ERROR_FAILURE_SETTING

Throws
IllegalArgumentException	if the privateDnsHost is not a valid hostname.
SecurityException	if the caller is not the device owner.

setGlobalSetting

Added in API level 21

public void setGlobalSetting (ComponentName admin, 
                String setting, 
                String value)

This method is mostly deprecated. Most of the settings that still have an effect have dedicated setter methods or user restrictions. See individual settings for details.

Called by device owner to update Settings.Global settings. Validation that the value of the setting is in the correct form for the setting type should be performed by the caller.

The settings that can be updated with this method are:

                List<Certificate> certs, 
                boolean isUserSelectable)

This API can be called by the following to associate certificates with a key pair that was generated using generateKeyPair(ComponentName, String, KeyGenParameterSpec, int), and set whether the key is available for the user to choose in the certificate selection prompt:

• Device owner
• Profile owner
• Delegated certificate installer
• Credential management app

From Android Build.VERSION_CODES.S, the credential management app can call this API. If called by the credential management app, the componentName must be null. Note, there can only be a credential management app on an unmanaged device.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if the caller is not a device admin.
alias	String: The private key alias under which to install the certificate. The alias should denote an existing private key. If a certificate with that alias already exists, it will be overwritten. This value cannot be null.
certs	List: The certificate chain to install. The chain should start with the leaf certificate and include the chain of trust in order. This will be returned by KeyChain.getCertificateChain(Context, String). This value cannot be null.
isUserSelectable	boolean: true to indicate that a user can select this key via the certificate selection prompt, false to indicate that this key can only be granted access by implementing DeviceAdminReceiver.onChoosePrivateKeyAlias(Context, Intent, int, Uri, String).

Returns
boolean	true if the provided alias exists and the certificates has been successfully associated with it, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not null and not a device or profile owner, or admin is null but the calling application is not a delegated certificate installer or credential management app.

setKeyguardDisabled

Added in API level 23

public boolean setKeyguardDisabled (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean disabled)

Called by a device owner or profile owner of secondary users that is affiliated with the device to disable the keyguard altogether.

Setting the keyguard to disabled has the same effect as choosing "None" as the screen lock type. However, this call has no effect if a password, pin or pattern is currently set. If a password, pin or pattern is set after the keyguard was disabled, the keyguard stops being disabled.

As of Build.VERSION_CODES.P, this call also dismisses the keyguard if it is currently shown.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
disabled	boolean: true disables the keyguard, false reenables it.

Returns
boolean	false if attempting to disable the keyguard while a lock password was in place. true otherwise.

setKeyguardDisabledFeatures

Added in API level 17

public void setKeyguardDisabledFeatures (ComponentName admin, 
                int which)

Called by an application that is administering the device to disable keyguard customizations, such as widgets. After setting this, keyguard features will be disabled according to the provided feature list.

A calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_DISABLE_KEYGUARD_FEATURES to be able to call this method; if it has not, a security exception will be thrown.

Calling this from a managed profile before version Build.VERSION_CODES.M will throw a security exception. From version Build.VERSION_CODES.M the profile owner of a managed profile can set:

• KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS, which affects the parent user, but only if there is no separate challenge set on the managed profile.
• KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FACE or KEYGUARD_DISABLE_IRIS which affects the managed profile challenge if there is one, or the parent user otherwise.
• KEYGUARD_DISABLE_UNREDACTED_NOTIFICATIONS which affects notifications generated by applications in the managed profile.

From version Build.VERSION_CODES.VANILLA_ICE_CREAM, the profile owner of a managed profile can also set KEYGUARD_DISABLE_WIDGETS_ALL which disables keyguard widgets for the managed profile.

From version Build.VERSION_CODES.R the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile can set:

• KEYGUARD_DISABLE_SECURE_CAMERA which affects the parent user when called on the parent profile.
• KEYGUARD_DISABLE_SECURE_NOTIFICATIONS which affects the parent user when called on the parent profile.

Starting from version Build.VERSION_CODES.VANILLA_ICE_CREAM the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile can set:

• KEYGUARD_DISABLE_WIDGETS_ALL which affects the parent user when called on the parent profile.

KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FACE, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_IRIS, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_SECURE_CAMERA and KEYGUARD_DISABLE_SECURE_NOTIFICATIONS can also be set on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to set restrictions on the parent profile. KEYGUARD_DISABLE_SECURE_CAMERA can only be set on the parent profile instance if the calling device admin is the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile.

Requests to disable other features on a managed profile will be ignored.

The admin can check which features have been disabled by calling getKeyguardDisabledFeatures(android.content.ComponentName)

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin This value may be null.
which	int: The disabled features flag which can be either KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FEATURES_NONE (default), KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FEATURES_ALL, or a combination of KEYGUARD_DISABLE_WIDGETS_ALL, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_SECURE_CAMERA, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_SECURE_NOTIFICATIONS, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_UNREDACTED_NOTIFICATIONS, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FACE, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_IRIS, KEYGUARD_DISABLE_SHORTCUTS_ALL.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active administrator or does not use DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_DISABLE_KEYGUARD_FEATURES

setLocationEnabled

Added in API level 30

public void setLocationEnabled (ComponentName admin,

setLockTaskFeatures

Added in API level 28

public void setLockTaskFeatures (ComponentName admin, 
                int flags)

Sets which system features are enabled when the device runs in lock task mode. This method doesn't affect the features when lock task mode is inactive. Any system features not included in flags are implicitly disabled when calling this method. By default, only LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_GLOBAL_ACTIONS is enabled; all the other features are disabled. To disable the global actions dialog, call this method omitting LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_GLOBAL_ACTIONS.

This method can only be called by the device owner, a profile owner of an affiliated user or profile, or the profile owner when no device owner is set or holders of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_LOCK_TASK. See isAffiliatedUser(). Any features set using this method are cleared if the user becomes unaffiliated.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the lock task features policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#LOCK_TASK_POLICY
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, lock task features and lock task packages are bundled as one policy. A failure to apply one will result in a failure to apply the other.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
flags	int: The system features enabled during lock task mode. Value is either 0 or a combination of LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_NONE, LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_SYSTEM_INFO, LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_NOTIFICATIONS, LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_HOME, LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_OVERVIEW, LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_GLOBAL_ACTIONS, LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_KEYGUARD, and LOCK_TASK_FEATURE_BLOCK_ACTIVITY_START_IN_TASK

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not the device owner, the profile owner of an affiliated user or profile, or the profile owner when no device owner is set or holder of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_LOCK_TASK.

public void setLockTaskPackages (ComponentName admin, 
                String[] packages)

Sets which packages may enter lock task mode.

Any packages that share uid with an allowed package will also be allowed to activate lock task. From Build.VERSION_CODES.M removing packages from the lock task package list results in locked tasks belonging to those packages to be finished.

This function can only be called by the device owner, a profile owner of an affiliated user or profile, or the profile owner when no device owner is set or holders of the permission Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_LOCK_TASK. See isAffiliatedUser(). Any package set via this method will be cleared if the user becomes unaffiliated.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the lock task policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#LOCK_TASK_POLICY
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, lock task features and lock task packages are bundled as one policy. A failure to apply one will result in a failure to apply the other.

setManagedProfileCallerIdAccessPolicy

Added in API level 34

public void setManagedProfileCallerIdAccessPolicy (PackagePolicy policy)

Called by a profile owner of a managed profile to set the packages that are allowed to lookup contacts in the managed profile based on caller id information.

For example, the policy determines if a dialer app in the parent profile resolving an incoming call can search the caller id data, such as phone number, of managed contacts and return managed contacts that match.

The calling device admin must be a profile owner of a managed profile. If it is not, a SecurityException will be thrown.

A PackagePolicy#PACKAGE_POLICY_ALLOWLIST_AND_SYSTEM policy type allows access from the OEM default packages for the Sms, Dialer and Contact roles, in addition to the packages specified in PackagePolicy#getPackageNames()

Parameters
policy	PackagePolicy: the policy to set, setting this value to null will allow all packages

Throws
SecurityException	if caller is not a profile owner of a managed profile

setManagedProfileContactsAccessPolicy

Added in API level 34

public void setManagedProfileContactsAccessPolicy (PackagePolicy policy)

Called by a profile owner of a managed profile to set the packages that are allowed access to the managed profile contacts from the parent user.

For example, the system will enforce the provided policy and determine if contacts in the managed profile are shown when queried by an application in the parent user.

The calling device admin must be a profile owner of a managed profile. If it is not, a SecurityException will be thrown.

A PackagePolicy#PACKAGE_POLICY_ALLOWLIST_AND_SYSTEM policy type allows access from the OEM default packages for the Sms, Dialer and Contact roles, in addition to the packages specified in PackagePolicy#getPackageNames()

Parameters
policy	PackagePolicy: the policy to set, setting this value to null will allow all packages

Throws
SecurityException	if caller is not a profile owner of a managed profile

setManagedProfileMaximumTimeOff

Added in API level 30

public void setManagedProfileMaximumTimeOff (ComponentName admin, 
                long timeoutMillis)

Called by a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to set maximum time the profile is allowed to be turned off. If the profile is turned off for longer, personal apps are suspended on the device.

When personal apps are suspended, an ongoing notification about that is shown to the user. When the user taps the notification, system invokes ACTION_CHECK_POLICY_COMPLIANCE in the profile owner package. Profile owner implementation that uses personal apps suspension must handle this intent.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with This value cannot be null.
timeoutMillis	long: Maximum time the profile is allowed to be off in milliseconds or 0 if not limited. The minimum non-zero value corresponds to 72 hours. If an admin sets a smaller non-zero vaulue, 72 hours will be set instead.

Throws
IllegalStateException	if the profile owner doesn't have an activity that handles ACTION_CHECK_POLICY_COMPLIANCE

See also:

• setPersonalAppsSuspended(ComponentName, boolean)

setManagedSubscriptionsPolicy

Added in API level 34

public void setManagedSubscriptionsPolicy (ManagedSubscriptionsPolicy policy)

Called by a profile owner of an organization-owned device to specify ManagedSubscriptionsPolicy

Managed subscriptions policy controls how SIMs would be associated with the managed profile. For example a policy of type ManagedSubscriptionsPolicy#TYPE_ALL_MANAGED_SUBSCRIPTIONS assigns all SIM-based subscriptions to the managed profile. In this case OEM default dialer and messages app are automatically installed in the managed profile and all incoming and outgoing calls and text messages are handled by them.

This API can only be called during device setup.

Parameters
policy	ManagedSubscriptionsPolicy: ManagedSubscriptionsPolicy policy, passing null for this resets the policy to be the default.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not a profile owner on an organization-owned managed profile.
IllegalStateException	if called after the device setup has been completed.
UnsupportedOperationException	if managed subscriptions policy is not explicitly enabled by the device policy management role holder during device setup.

• ManagedSubscriptionsPolicy

setMasterVolumeMuted

Added in API level 21

public void setMasterVolumeMuted (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean on)

Called by profile or device owners to set the global volume mute on or off. This has no effect when set on a managed profile.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
on	boolean: true to mute global volume, false to turn mute off.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setMaximumFailedPasswordsForWipe

Added in API level 8

public void setMaximumFailedPasswordsForWipe (ComponentName admin, 
                int num)

Setting this to a value greater than zero enables a policy that will perform a device or profile wipe after too many incorrect device-unlock passwords have been entered. This policy combines watching for failed passwords and wiping the device, and requires that calling Device Admins request both DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_WATCH_LOGIN and DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_WIPE_DATA}.

When this policy is set on the system or the main user, the device will be factory reset after too many incorrect password attempts. When set on any other user, only the corresponding user or profile will be wiped.

To implement any other policy (e.g. wiping data for a particular application only, erasing or revoking credentials, or reporting the failure to a server), you should implement DeviceAdminReceiver#onPasswordFailed(Context, android.content.Intent) instead. Do not use this API, because if the maximum count is reached, the device or profile will be wiped immediately, and your callback will not be invoked.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to set a value on the parent profile. This allows a profile wipe after too many incorrect device-unlock password have been entered on the parent profile even if each profile has a separate challenge.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, the password is always empty and this method has no effect - i.e. the policy is not set.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
num	int: The number of failed password attempts at which point the device or profile will be wiped.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not null, and admin is not an active administrator or does not use both DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_WATCH_LOGIN and DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_WIPE_DATA, or if admin is null and the caller does not have permission to wipe the device.

setMaximumTimeToLock

Added in API level 8

public void setMaximumTimeToLock (ComponentName admin, 
                long timeMs)

Called by an application that is administering the device to set the maximum time for user activity until the device will lock. This limits the length that the user can set. It takes effect immediately.

A calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_FORCE_LOCK to be able to call this method; if it has not, a security exception will be thrown.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to set restrictions on the parent profile.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin This value may be null.
timeMs	long: The new desired maximum time to lock in milliseconds. A value of 0 means there is no restriction.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active administrator or it does not use DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_FORCE_LOCK

public void setMinimumRequiredWifiSecurityLevel (int level)

Called by device owner or profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to specify the minimum security level required for Wi-Fi networks. The device may not connect to networks that do not meet the minimum security level. If the current network does not meet the minimum security level set, it will be disconnected. The following shows the Wi-Fi security levels from the lowest to the highest security level: WIFI_SECURITY_OPEN WIFI_SECURITY_PERSONAL WIFI_SECURITY_ENTERPRISE_EAP WIFI_SECURITY_ENTERPRISE_192

Parameters
level	int: minimum security level Value is WIFI_SECURITY_OPEN, WIFI_SECURITY_PERSONAL, WIFI_SECURITY_ENTERPRISE_EAP, or WIFI_SECURITY_ENTERPRISE_192

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not permitted to set this policy

setMtePolicy

Added in API level 34

public void setMtePolicy (int policy)

Called by a device owner, profile owner of an organization-owned device, to set the Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) policy. MTE is a CPU extension that allows to protect against certain classes of security problems at a small runtime performance cost overhead.

The MTE policy can only be set to MTE_DISABLED if called by a device owner. Otherwise a SecurityException will be thrown.

The device needs to be rebooted to apply changes to the MTE policy.

policy	int: the MTE policy to be set Value is MTE_ENABLED, MTE_DISABLED, or MTE_NOT_CONTROLLED_BY_POLICY

Throws
SecurityException	if caller is not permitted to set Mte policy
UnsupportedOperationException	if the device does not support MTE

setNearbyAppStreamingPolicy

Added in API level 31

public void setNearbyAppStreamingPolicy (int policy)

Called by a device/profile owner to set nearby app streaming policy. App streaming is when the device starts an app on a virtual display and sends a video stream of the app to nearby devices.

Parameters
policy	int: One of the NearbyStreamingPolicy constants. Value is NEARBY_STREAMING_NOT_CONTROLLED_BY_POLICY, NEARBY_STREAMING_DISABLED, NEARBY_STREAMING_ENABLED, or NEARBY_STREAMING_SAME_MANAGED_ACCOUNT_ONLY

Throws
SecurityException	if caller is not a device or profile owner.

setNearbyNotificationStreamingPolicy

Added in API level 31

public void setNearbyNotificationStreamingPolicy (int policy)

Called by a device/profile owner to set nearby notification streaming policy. Notification streaming is sending notification data from pre-installed apps to nearby devices.

Parameters
policy	int: One of the NearbyStreamingPolicy constants. Value is NEARBY_STREAMING_NOT_CONTROLLED_BY_POLICY, NEARBY_STREAMING_DISABLED, NEARBY_STREAMING_ENABLED, or NEARBY_STREAMING_SAME_MANAGED_ACCOUNT_ONLY

Throws
SecurityException	if caller is not a device or profile owner

setNetworkLoggingEnabled

Added in API level 26

public void setNetworkLoggingEnabled (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean enabled)

Called by a device owner, profile owner of a managed profile or delegated app with DELEGATION_NETWORK_LOGGING to control the network logging feature.

Supported for a device owner from Android 8 and a delegated app granted by a device owner from Android 10. Supported for a profile owner of a managed profile and a delegated app granted by a profile owner from Android 12. When network logging is enabled by a profile owner, the network logs will only include work profile network activity, not activity on the personal profile.

Network logs contain DNS lookup and connect() library call events. The following library functions are recorded while network logging is active:

• getaddrinfo()
• gethostbyname()
• connect()

Network logging is a low-overhead tool for forensics but it is not guaranteed to use full system call logging; event reporting is enabled by default for all processes but not strongly enforced. Events from applications using alternative implementations of libc, making direct kernel calls, or deliberately obfuscating traffic may not be recorded.

Some common network events may not be reported. For example:

• Applications may hardcode IP addresses to reduce the number of DNS lookups, or use an alternative system for name resolution, and so avoid calling getaddrinfo() or gethostbyname.
• Applications may use datagram sockets for performance reasons, for example for a game client. Calling connect() is unnecessary for this kind of socket, so it will not trigger a network event.

It is possible to directly intercept layer 3 traffic leaving the device using an always-on VPN service. See setAlwaysOnVpnPackage(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, boolean) and VpnService for details.

Note: The device owner won't be able to retrieve network logs if there are unaffiliated secondary users or profiles on the device, regardless of whether the feature is enabled. Logs will be discarded if the internal buffer fills up while waiting for all users to become affiliated. Therefore it's recommended that affiliation ids are set for new users as soon as possible after provisioning via setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with, or null if called by a delegated app.
enabled	boolean: whether network logging should be enabled or not.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner or profile owner.

Starting from Android R, the organization color will no longer be used as the background color of the confirm credentials screen.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
color	int: The 24bit (0xRRGGBB) representation of the color to be used.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a profile owner.

setOrganizationId

Added in API level 31

public void setOrganizationId (String enterpriseId)

Sets the Enterprise ID for the work profile or managed device. This is a requirement for generating an enrollment-specific ID for the device, see getEnrollmentSpecificId(). It is recommended that the Enterprise ID is at least 6 characters long, and no more than 64 characters.

Parameters
enterpriseId	String: An identifier of the organization this work profile or device is enrolled into. This value cannot be null.

setOrganizationName

Added in API level 24

public void setOrganizationName (ComponentName admin, 
                CharSequence title)

Called by the device owner (since API 26) or profile owner (since API 24) to set the name of the organization under management.

If the organization name needs to be localized, it is the responsibility of the caller to listen to the Intent#ACTION_LOCALE_CHANGED broadcast and set a new version of this string accordingly.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
title	CharSequence: The organization name or null to clear a previously set name.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

Added in API level 28

public void setOverrideApnsEnabled (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean enabled)

Called by device owner to set if override APNs should be enabled.

Override APNs are separated from other APNs on the device, and can only be inserted or modified by the device owner. When enabled, only override APNs are in use, any other APNs are ignored.

Note: Enterprise APNs added by managed profile owners do not need to be enabled by this API. They are part of the preferential network service config and is controlled by setPreferentialNetworkServiceConfigs(List).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with This value cannot be null.
enabled	boolean: true if override APNs should be enabled, false otherwise

Throws

                String[] packageNames, 
                boolean suspended)

Called by device or profile owners to suspend packages for this user. This function can be called by a device owner, profile owner, or by a delegate given the DELEGATION_PACKAGE_ACCESS scope via setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List).

A suspended package will not be able to start activities. Its notifications will be hidden, it will not show up in recents, will not be able to show toasts or dialogs or ring the device.

The package must already be installed. If the package is uninstalled while suspended the package will no longer be suspended. The admin can block this by using setUninstallBlocked(ComponentName, String, boolean).

Some apps cannot be suspended, such as device admins, the active launcher, the required package installer, the required package uninstaller, the required package verifier, the default dialer, and the permission controller.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
packageNames	String: The package names to suspend or unsuspend. This value cannot be null.
suspended	boolean: If set to true than the packages will be suspended, if set to false the packages will be unsuspended.

Returns
String[]	an array of package names for which the suspended status is not set as requested in this method. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setPasswordExpirationTimeout

Added in API level 11

public void setPasswordExpirationTimeout (ComponentName admin, 
                long timeout)

Called by a device admin to set the password expiration timeout. Calling this method will restart the countdown for password expiration for the given admin, as will changing the device password (for all admins).

The provided timeout is the time delta in ms and will be added to the current time. For example, to have the password expire 5 days from now, timeout would be 5 * 86400 * 1000 = 432000000 ms for timeout.

To disable password expiration, a value of 0 may be used for timeout.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, the password expiration is always disabled.

A calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_EXPIRE_PASSWORD to be able to call this method; if it has not, a security exception will be thrown.

Note that setting the password will automatically reset the expiration time for all active admins. Active admins do not need to explicitly call this method in that case.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to set restrictions on the parent profile.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin This value may be null.
timeout	long: The limit (in ms) that a password can remain in effect. A value of 0 means there is no restriction (unlimited).

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active administrator or admin does not use DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_EXPIRE_PASSWORD

setPasswordHistoryLength

Added in API level 11

public void setPasswordHistoryLength (ComponentName admin, 
                int length)

Called by an application that is administering the device to set the length of the password history. After setting this, the user will not be able to enter a new password that is the same as any password in the history. Note that the current password will remain until the user has set a new one, so the change does not take place immediately. To prompt the user for a new password, use ACTION_SET_NEW_PASSWORD or ACTION_SET_NEW_PARENT_PROFILE_PASSWORD after setting this value.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, the password history length is always 0.

The calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_LIMIT_PASSWORD to be able to call this method; if it has not, a security exception will be thrown.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to set restrictions on the parent profile.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
length	int: The new desired length of password history. A value of 0 means there is no restriction.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active administrator or admin does not use DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_LIMIT_PASSWORD

IllegalStateException	if the calling app is targeting SDK level Build.VERSION_CODES.R and above and didn't set a sufficient password quality requirement prior to calling this method.

setPasswordQuality

Added in API level 8
Deprecated in API level 31

public void setPasswordQuality (ComponentName admin, 
                int quality)

This method was deprecated in API level 31.
Prefer using setRequiredPasswordComplexity(int), to require a password that satisfies a complexity level defined by the platform, rather than specifying custom password requirement. Setting custom, overly-complicated password requirements leads to passwords that are hard for users to remember and may not provide any security benefits given as Android uses hardware-backed throttling to thwart online and offline brute-forcing of the device's screen lock. Company-owned devices (fully-managed and organization-owned managed profile devices) are able to continue using this method, though it is recommended that setRequiredPasswordComplexity(int) should be used instead.

Called by an application that is administering the device to set the password restrictions it is imposing. After setting this, the user will not be able to enter a new password that is not at least as restrictive as what has been set. Note that the current password will remain until the user has set a new one, so the change does not take place immediately. To prompt the user for a new password, use ACTION_SET_NEW_PASSWORD or ACTION_SET_NEW_PARENT_PROFILE_PASSWORD after calling this method.

Quality constants are ordered so that higher values are more restrictive; thus the highest requested quality constant (between the policy set here, the user's preference, and any other considerations) is the one that is in effect.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, the password is always treated as empty.

The calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_LIMIT_PASSWORD to be able to call this method; if it has not, a security exception will be thrown.

Apps targeting Build.VERSION_CODES.R and below can call this method on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to set restrictions on the parent profile. Apps targeting Build.VERSION_CODES.S and above, with the exception of a profile owner on an organization-owned device (as can be identified by isOrganizationOwnedDeviceWithManagedProfile()), will get a IllegalArgumentException when calling this method on the parent DevicePolicyManager instance.

Note: Specifying password requirements using this method clears the password complexity requirements set using setRequiredPasswordComplexity(int). If this method is called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), then password complexity requirements set on the primary DevicePolicyManager must be cleared first by calling setRequiredPasswordComplexity(int) with {@link #PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_NONE) first.

Note: this method is ignored on {PackageManager#FEATURE_AUTOMOTIVE automotive builds}.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with.
quality	int: The new desired quality. One of PASSWORD_QUALITY_UNSPECIFIED, PASSWORD_QUALITY_BIOMETRIC_WEAK, PASSWORD_QUALITY_SOMETHING, PASSWORD_QUALITY_NUMERIC, PASSWORD_QUALITY_NUMERIC_COMPLEX, PASSWORD_QUALITY_ALPHABETIC, PASSWORD_QUALITY_ALPHANUMERIC or PASSWORD_QUALITY_COMPLEX.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active administrator, if admin does not use DeviceAdminInfo.USES_POLICY_LIMIT_PASSWORD or if the calling app is targeting Build.VERSION_CODES.S and above, and is calling the method the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(ComponentName).
IllegalStateException	if the caller is trying to set password quality on the parent DevicePolicyManager instance while password complexity was set on the primary DevicePolicyManager instance.

setPermissionGrantState

Added in API level 23

public boolean setPermissionGrantState (ComponentName admin, 
                String packageName, 
                String permission, 
                int grantState)

Sets the grant state of a runtime permission for a specific application. The state can be default in which a user can manage it through the UI, denied, in which the permission is denied and the user cannot manage it through the UI, and granted in which the permission is granted and the user cannot manage it through the UI. This method can only be called by a profile owner, device owner, or a delegate given the DELEGATION_PERMISSION_GRANT scope via setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List).

Note that user cannot manage other permissions in the affected group through the UI either and their granted state will be kept as the current value. Thus, it's recommended that you set the grant state of all the permissions in the affected group.

Setting the grant state to default does not revoke the permission. It retains the previous grant, if any.

Device admins with a targetSdkVersion < Build.VERSION_CODES.Q cannot grant and revoke permissions for applications built with a targetSdkVersion < Build.VERSION_CODES.M.

Admins with a targetSdkVersion ≥ Build.VERSION_CODES.Q can grant and revoke permissions of all apps. Similar to the user revoking a permission from a application built with a targetSdkVersion < Build.VERSION_CODES.M the app-op matching the permission is set to AppOpsManager.MODE_IGNORED, but the permission stays granted.

NOTE: On devices running Build.VERSION_CODES.S and above, control over the following, sensors-related, permissions is restricted:

• Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
• Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION
• Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
• Manifest.permission.CAMERA
• Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO
• Manifest.permission.RECORD_BACKGROUND_AUDIO
• Manifest.permission.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION
• Manifest.permission.BODY_SENSORS

A profile owner may not grant these permissions (i.e. call this method with any of the permissions listed above and grantState of #PERMISSION_GRANT_STATE_GRANTED), but may deny them.

A device owner, by default, may continue granting these permissions. However, for increased user control, the admin may opt out of controlling grants for these permissions by including EXTRA_PROVISIONING_SENSORS_PERMISSION_GRANT_OPT_OUT in the provisioning parameters. In that case the device owner's control will be limited to denying these permissions.

When sensor-related permissions aren't grantable due to the above cases, calling this method to grant these permissions will silently fail, if device admins are built with targetSdkVersion < Build.VERSION_CODES.VANILLA_ICE_CREAM. If they are built with targetSdkVersion >= Build.VERSION_CODES.VANILLA_ICE_CREAM, this method will throw a SecurityException.

NOTE: On devices running Build.VERSION_CODES.S and above, control over the following permissions are restricted for managed profile owners:

• Manifest.permission.READ_SMS

A managed profile owner may not grant these permissions (i.e. call this method with any of the permissions listed above and grantState of #PERMISSION_GRANT_STATE_GRANTED), but may deny them.

Attempts by the admin to grant these permissions, when the admin is restricted from doing so, will be silently ignored (no exception will be thrown). Control over the following permissions are restricted for managed profile owners:

• Manifest.permission.READ_SMS

A managed profile owner may not grant these permissions (i.e. call this method with any of the permissions listed above and grantState of #PERMISSION_GRANT_STATE_GRANTED), but may deny them.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
packageName	String: The application to grant or revoke a permission to. This value cannot be null.
permission	String: The permission to grant or revoke. This value cannot be null.
grantState	int: The permission grant state which is one of PERMISSION_GRANT_STATE_DENIED, PERMISSION_GRANT_STATE_DEFAULT, PERMISSION_GRANT_STATE_GRANTED, Value is PERMISSION_GRANT_STATE_DEFAULT, PERMISSION_GRANT_STATE_GRANTED, or PERMISSION_GRANT_STATE_DENIED

Returns
boolean	whether the permission was successfully granted or revoked.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setPermissionPolicy

Added in API level 23

public void setPermissionPolicy (ComponentName admin, 
                int policy)

Set the default response for future runtime permission requests by applications. This function can be called by a device owner, profile owner, or by a delegate given the DELEGATION_PERMISSION_GRANT scope via setDelegatedScopes(ComponentName, String, List). The policy can allow for normal operation which prompts the user to grant a permission, or can allow automatic granting or denying of runtime permission requests by an application. This also applies to new permissions declared by app updates. When a permission is denied or granted this way, the effect is equivalent to setting the permission * grant state via setPermissionGrantState(ComponentName, String, String, int).

As this policy only acts on runtime permission requests, it only applies to applications built with a targetSdkVersion of Build.VERSION_CODES.M or later.

NOTE: On devices running Build.VERSION_CODES.S and above, an auto-grant policy will not apply to certain sensors-related permissions on some configurations. See setPermissionGrantState(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, int) for the list of permissions affected, and the behavior change for managed profiles and fully-managed devices.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which profile or device owner this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
policy	int: One of the policy constants PERMISSION_POLICY_PROMPT, PERMISSION_POLICY_AUTO_GRANT and PERMISSION_POLICY_AUTO_DENY.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setPermittedAccessibilityServices

Added in API level 21

public boolean setPermittedAccessibilityServices (ComponentName admin, 
                List<String> packageNames)

Called by a profile or device owner to set the permitted AccessibilityService. When set by a device owner or profile owner the restriction applies to all profiles of the user the device owner or profile owner is an admin for. By default, the user can use any accessibility service. When zero or more packages have been added, accessibility services that are not in the list and not part of the system can not be enabled by the user.

Calling with a null value for the list disables the restriction so that all services can be used, calling with an empty list only allows the built-in system services. Any non-system accessibility service that's currently enabled must be included in the list.

System accessibility services are always available to the user and this method can't disable them.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
packageNames	List: List of accessibility service package names.

Returns
boolean	true if the operation succeeded, or false if the list didn't contain every enabled non-system accessibility service.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setPermittedCrossProfileNotificationListeners

Added in API level 26

public boolean setPermittedCrossProfileNotificationListeners (ComponentName admin, 
                List<String> packageList)

Called by a profile owner of a managed profile to set the packages that are allowed to use a NotificationListenerService in the primary user to see notifications from the managed profile. By default all packages are permitted by this policy. When zero or more packages have been added, notification listeners installed on the primary user that are not in the list and are not part of the system won't receive events for managed profile notifications.

Calling with a null value for the list disables the restriction so that all notification listener services be used. Calling with an empty list disables all but the system's own notification listeners. System notification listener services are always available to the user.

If a device or profile owner want to stop notification listeners in their user from seeing that user's notifications they should prevent that service from running instead (e.g. via setApplicationHidden(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, boolean))

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
packageList	List: List of package names to allowlist This value may be null.

Returns
boolean	true if setting the restriction succeeded. It will fail if called outside a managed profile

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a profile owner.

See also:

• NotificationListenerService

setPermittedInputMethods

Added in API level 21

public boolean setPermittedInputMethods (ComponentName admin, 
                List<String> packageNames)

Called by a profile or device owner or holder of the Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_INPUT_METHODS permission to set the permitted input methods services for this user. By default, the user can use any input method.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance, returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), where the caller must be a profile owner of an organization-owned device.

If called on the parent instance:

• The permitted input methods will be applied on the personal profile
• Can only permit all input methods (calling this method with a null package list) or only permit system input methods (calling this method with an empty package list). This is to prevent the caller from learning which packages are installed on the personal side

When zero or more packages have been added, input method that are not in the list and not part of the system can not be enabled by the user. This method will fail if it is called for a admin that is not for the foreground user or a profile of the foreground user. Any non-system input method service that's currently enabled must be included in the list.

Calling with a null value for the list disables the restriction so that all input methods can be used, calling with an empty list disables all but the system's own input methods.

System input methods are always available to the user - this method can't modify this.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin This value may be null.
packageNames	List: List of input method package names.

Returns
boolean	true if the operation succeeded, or false if the list didn't contain every enabled non-system input method service.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner and does not hold the Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_INPUT_METHODS permission, or if called on the parent profile and the admin is not a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile.
IllegalArgumentException	if called on the parent profile, the admin is a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile and the list of permitted input method package names is not null or empty.

setPersonalAppsSuspended

Added in API level 30

public void setPersonalAppsSuspended (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean suspended)

Called by a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to suspend personal apps on the device. When personal apps are suspended the device can only be used for calls.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with This value cannot be null.
suspended	boolean: Whether personal apps should be suspended.

Throws
IllegalStateException	if the profile owner doesn't have an activity that handles ACTION_CHECK_POLICY_COMPLIANCE

setPreferentialNetworkServiceConfigs

Added in API level 33

public void setPreferentialNetworkServiceConfigs (List<PreferentialNetworkServiceConfig> preferentialNetworkServiceConfigs)

Sets preferential network configurations. An example of a supported preferential network service is the Enterprise slice on 5G networks. For devices on 4G networks, the profile owner needs to additionally configure enterprise APN to set up data call for the preferential network service. These APNs can be added using addOverrideApn(ComponentName, ApnSetting). By default, preferential network service is disabled on the work profile and fully managed devices, on supported carriers and devices. Admins can explicitly enable it with this API. If admin wants to have multiple enterprise slices, it can be configured by passing list of PreferentialNetworkServiceConfig objects.

Parameters
preferentialNetworkServiceConfigs	List: list of preferential network configurations. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not the profile owner or device owner.

See also:

• PreferentialNetworkServiceConfig

setPreferentialNetworkServiceEnabled

Added in API level 31

public void setPreferentialNetworkServiceEnabled (boolean enabled)

Sets whether preferential network service is enabled. For example, an organization can have a deal/agreement with a carrier that all of the work data from its employees\u2019 devices will be sent via a network service dedicated for enterprise use. An example of a supported preferential network service is the Enterprise slice on 5G networks. For devices on 4G networks, the profile owner needs to additionally configure enterprise APN to set up data call for the preferential network service. These APNs can be added using addOverrideApn(ComponentName, ApnSetting). By default, preferential network service is disabled on the work profile and fully managed devices, on supported carriers and devices. Admins can explicitly enable it with this API.

This method enables preferential network service with a default configuration. To fine-tune the configuration, use {@link #setPreferentialNetworkServiceConfigs) instead.

Before Android version {@link android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#TIRAMISU}: this method can be called by the profile owner of a managed profile.

Starting from Android version {@link android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#TIRAMISU}: This method can be called by the profile owner of a managed profile or device owner.

Parameters
enabled	boolean: whether preferential network service should be enabled.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not the profile owner or device owner.

setProfileEnabled

Added in API level 21

public void setProfileEnabled (ComponentName admin)

Sets the enabled state of the profile. A profile should be enabled only once it is ready to be used. Only the profile owner can call this.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a profile owner.

See also:

• isProfileOwnerApp(String)

setProfileName

Added in API level 21

public void setProfileName (ComponentName admin, 
                String profileName)

Sets the name of the profile. In the device owner case it sets the name of the user which it is called from. Only a profile owner or device owner can call this. If this is never called by the profile or device owner, the name will be set to default values.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associate with. This value cannot be null.
profileName	String: The name of the profile. If the name is longer than 200 characters it will be truncated.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

See also:

• isProfileOwnerApp(String)
• isDeviceOwnerApp(String)

setRecommendedGlobalProxy

Added in API level 21

public void setRecommendedGlobalProxy (ComponentName admin, 
                ProxyInfo proxyInfo)

Set a network-independent global HTTP proxy. This is not normally what you want for typical HTTP proxies - they are generally network dependent. However if you're doing something unusual like general internal filtering this may be useful. On a private network where the proxy is not accessible, you may break HTTP using this.

This method requires the caller to be the device owner.

This proxy is only a recommendation and it is possible that some apps will ignore it.

Note: The device owner won't be able to set a global HTTP proxy if there are unaffiliated secondary users or profiles on the device. It's recommended that affiliation ids are set for new users as soon as possible after provisioning via setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
proxyInfo	ProxyInfo: The a ProxyInfo object defining the new global HTTP proxy. A null value will clear the global HTTP proxy.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not the device owner.

See also:

• ProxyInfo

setRequiredPasswordComplexity

Added in API level 31

public void setRequiredPasswordComplexity (int passwordComplexity)

Sets a minimum password complexity requirement for the user's screen lock. The complexity level is one of the pre-defined levels, and the user is unable to set a password with a lower complexity level.

Note that when called on a profile which uses an unified challenge with its parent, the complexity would apply to the unified challenge.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to set restrictions on the parent profile.

Note: Specifying password requirements using this method clears any password requirements set using the obsolete setPasswordQuality(android.content.ComponentName, int) and any of its associated methods. Additionally, if there are password requirements set using the obsolete setPasswordQuality(android.content.ComponentName, int) on the parent DevicePolicyManager instance, they must be cleared by calling setPasswordQuality(android.content.ComponentName, int) with PASSWORD_QUALITY_UNSPECIFIED on that instance prior to setting complexity requirement for the managed profile. Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#VANILLA_ICE_CREAM, after the password requirement has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_POLICY
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Parameters
passwordComplexity	int: Value is PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_NONE, PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_LOW, PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_MEDIUM, or PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_HIGH

Throws
SecurityException	if the calling application is not a device owner or a profile owner.
IllegalArgumentException	if the complexity level is not one of the four above.
IllegalStateException	if the caller is trying to set password complexity while there are password requirements specified using setPasswordQuality(android.content.ComponentName, int) on the parent DevicePolicyManager instance.

setRequiredStrongAuthTimeout

Added in API level 26

public void setRequiredStrongAuthTimeout (ComponentName admin, 
                long timeoutMs)

Called by a device/profile owner to set the timeout after which unlocking with secondary, non strong auth (e.g. fingerprint, face, trust agents) times out, i.e. the user has to use a strong authentication method like password, pin or pattern.

This timeout is used internally to reset the timer to require strong auth again after specified timeout each time it has been successfully used.

Fingerprint can also be disabled altogether using KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT.

Trust agents can also be disabled altogether using KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS.

A calling device admin can verify the value it has set by calling getRequiredStrongAuthTimeout(android.content.ComponentName) and passing in its instance.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to set restrictions on the parent profile.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, calling this methods has no effect - i.e. the timeout is not set.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin This value may be null.
timeoutMs	long: The new timeout in milliseconds, after which the user will have to unlock with strong authentication method. A value of 0 means the admin is not participating in controlling the timeout. The minimum and maximum timeouts are platform-defined and are typically 1 hour and 72 hours, respectively. Though discouraged, the admin may choose to require strong auth at all times using KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT and/or KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setResetPasswordToken

Added in API level 26

public boolean setResetPasswordToken (ComponentName admin, 
                byte[] token)

Called by a profile or device owner to provision a token which can later be used to reset the device lockscreen password (if called by device owner), or managed profile challenge (if called by profile owner), via resetPasswordWithToken(ComponentName, String, byte, int).

If the user currently has a lockscreen password, the provisioned token will not be immediately usable; it only becomes active after the user performs a confirm credential operation, which can be triggered by KeyguardManager#createConfirmDeviceCredentialIntent. If the user has no lockscreen password, the token is activated immediately. In all cases, the active state of the current token can be checked by isResetPasswordTokenActive(ComponentName). For security reasons, un-activated tokens are only stored in memory and will be lost once the device reboots. In this case a new token needs to be provisioned again.

Once provisioned and activated, the token will remain effective even if the user changes or clears the lockscreen password.

This token is highly sensitive and should be treated at the same level as user credentials. In particular, NEVER store this token on device in plaintext. Do not store the plaintext token in device-encrypted storage if it will be needed to reset password on file-based encryption devices before user unlocks. Consider carefully how any password token will be stored on your server and who will need access to them. Tokens may be the subject of legal access requests.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, the reset token is not set and this method returns false.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
token	byte: a secure token a least 32-byte long, which must be generated by a cryptographically strong random number generator.

Returns
boolean	true if the operation is successful, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.
IllegalArgumentException	if the supplied token is invalid.

setRestrictionsProvider

Added in API level 21

public void setRestrictionsProvider (ComponentName admin, 
                ComponentName provider)

Designates a specific service component as the provider for making permission requests of a local or remote administrator of the user.

Only a device owner or profile owner can designate the restrictions provider.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
provider	ComponentName: The component name of the service that implements RestrictionsReceiver. If this param is null, it removes the restrictions provider previously assigned.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setScreenCaptureDisabled

Added in API level 21

public void setScreenCaptureDisabled (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean disabled)

Called by a device/profile owner to set whether the screen capture is disabled. Disabling screen capture also prevents the content from being shown on display devices that do not have a secure video output. See Display.FLAG_SECURE for more details about secure surfaces and secure displays.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance, returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName), where the calling device admin must be the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile. If it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

If the caller is device owner or called on the parent instance by a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile, then the restriction will be applied to all users.

From version Build.VERSION_CODES.M disabling screen capture also blocks assist requests for all activities of the relevant user.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
disabled	boolean: Whether screen capture is disabled or not.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not permitted to control screen capture policy.

setSecureSetting

Added in API level 21

public void setSecureSetting (ComponentName admin, 
                String setting, 
                String value)

This method is mostly deprecated. Most of the settings that still have an effect have dedicated setter methods (e.g. setLocationEnabled(ComponentName, boolean)) or user restrictions.

Called by profile or device owners to update Settings.Secure settings. Validation that the value of the setting is in the correct form for the setting type should be performed by the caller.

The settings that can be updated by a profile or device owner with this method are:

• Settings.Secure.DEFAULT_INPUT_METHOD
• Settings.Secure.SKIP_FIRST_USE_HINTS

A device owner can additionally update the following settings:

• Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE, but see note below.

Note: Starting from Android O, apps should no longer call this method with the setting Settings.Secure.INSTALL_NON_MARKET_APPS, which is deprecated. Instead, device owners or profile owners should use the restriction UserManager#DISALLOW_INSTALL_UNKNOWN_SOURCES. If any app targeting Build.VERSION_CODES.O or higher calls this method with Settings.Secure.INSTALL_NON_MARKET_APPS, an UnsupportedOperationException is thrown. Starting from Android Q, the device and profile owner can also call UserManager#DISALLOW_INSTALL_UNKNOWN_SOURCES_GLOBALLY to restrict unknown sources for all users. Note: Starting from Android R, apps should no longer call this method with the setting Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE, which is deprecated. Instead, device owners should call setLocationEnabled(android.content.ComponentName, boolean). This will be enforced for all apps targeting Android R or above.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
setting	String: The name of the setting to update.
value	String: The value to update the setting to.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device or profile owner.

setSecurityLoggingEnabled

Added in API level 24

public void setSecurityLoggingEnabled (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean enabled)

Called by device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to control the security logging feature.

Security logs contain various information intended for security auditing purposes. When security logging is enabled by any app other than the device owner, certain security logs are not visible (for example personal app launch events) or they will be redacted (for example, details of the physical volume mount events). Please see SecurityEvent for details.

Note: The device owner won't be able to retrieve security logs if there are unaffiliated secondary users or profiles on the device, regardless of whether the feature is enabled. Logs will be discarded if the internal buffer fills up while waiting for all users to become affiliated. Therefore it's recommended that affiliation ids are set for new users as soon as possible after provisioning via setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set). Non device owners are not subject to this restriction since all privacy-sensitive events happening outside the managed profile would have been redacted already. Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#VANILLA_ICE_CREAM, after the security logging policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain:

• The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#SECURITY_LOGGING_POLICY
• The TargetUser that this policy relates to
• The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY)

If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which device admin this request is associated with, or null if called by a delegated app.
enabled	boolean: whether security logging should be enabled or not.

Throws
SecurityException	if the caller is not permitted to control security logging.

See also:

• setAffiliationIds(ComponentName, Set)
• retrieveSecurityLogs(ComponentName)

setShortSupportMessage

Added in API level 24

public void setShortSupportMessage (ComponentName admin, 
                CharSequence message)

Called by a device admin to set the short support message. This will be displayed to the user in settings screens where functionality has been disabled by the admin. The message should be limited to a short statement such as "This setting is disabled by your administrator. Contact [e-mail] for support." If the message is longer than 200 characters it may be truncated.

If the short support message needs to be localized, it is the responsibility of the DeviceAdminReceiver to listen to the Intent#ACTION_LOCALE_CHANGED broadcast and set a new version of this string accordingly.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
message	CharSequence: Short message to be displayed to the user in settings or null to clear the existing message.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active administrator.

See also:

• setLongSupportMessage(ComponentName, CharSequence)

setStartUserSessionMessage

Added in API level 28

public void setStartUserSessionMessage (ComponentName admin, 
                CharSequence startUserSessionMessage)

Called by a device owner to specify the user session start message. This may be displayed during a user switch.

The message should be limited to a short statement or it may be truncated.

If the message needs to be localized, it is the responsibility of the DeviceAdminReceiver to listen to the Intent#ACTION_LOCALE_CHANGED broadcast and set a new version of this message accordingly.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
startUserSessionMessage	CharSequence: message for starting user session, or null to use system default message.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner.

setStatusBarDisabled

Added in API level 23

public boolean setStatusBarDisabled (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean disabled)

Called by device owner or profile owner of secondary users that is affiliated with the device to disable the status bar. Disabling the status bar blocks notifications and quick settings.

Note: This method has no effect for LockTask mode. The behavior of the status bar in LockTask mode can be configured with setLockTaskFeatures(android.content.ComponentName, int). Calls to this method when the device is in LockTask mode will be registered, but will only take effect when the device leaves LockTask mode.

This policy does not have any effect while on the lock screen, where the status bar will not be disabled. Using LockTask instead of this method is recommended.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
disabled	boolean: true disables the status bar, false reenables it.

Returns
boolean	false if attempting to disable the status bar failed. true otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not the device owner, or a profile owner of secondary user that is affiliated with the device.

• isAffiliatedUser()
• getSecondaryUsers(ComponentName)

setStorageEncryption

Added in API level 11
Deprecated in API level 30

public int setStorageEncryption (ComponentName admin, 
                boolean encrypt)

This method was deprecated in API level 30.
This method does not actually modify the storage encryption of the device. It has never affected the encryption status of a device. Called by an application that is administering the device to request that the storage system be encrypted. Does nothing if the caller is on a secondary user or a managed profile.

When multiple device administrators attempt to control device encryption, the most secure, supported setting will always be used. If any device administrator requests device encryption, it will be enabled; Conversely, if a device administrator attempts to disable device encryption while another device administrator has enabled it, the call to disable will fail (most commonly returning ENCRYPTION_STATUS_ACTIVE).

This policy controls encryption of the secure (application data) storage area. Data written to other storage areas may or may not be encrypted, and this policy does not require or control the encryption of any other storage areas. There is one exception: If Environment.isExternalStorageEmulated() is true, then the directory returned by Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() must be written to disk within the encrypted storage area.

Important Note: On some devices, it is possible to encrypt storage without requiring the user to create a device PIN or Password. In this case, the storage is encrypted, but the encryption key may not be fully secured. For maximum security, the administrator should also require (and check for) a pattern, PIN, or password.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
encrypt	boolean: true to request encryption, false to release any previous request

Returns
int	the new total request status (for all active admins), or ENCRYPTION_STATUS_UNSUPPORTED if called for a non-system user. Will be one of ENCRYPTION_STATUS_UNSUPPORTED, ENCRYPTION_STATUS_INACTIVE, or ENCRYPTION_STATUS_ACTIVE. This is the value of the requests; use getStorageEncryptionStatus() to query the actual device state.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active administrator or does not use DeviceAdminInfo#USES_ENCRYPTED_STORAGE

setSystemSetting

Added in API level 28

public void setSystemSetting (ComponentName admin, 
                String setting, 
                String value)

Called by a device or profile owner to update Settings.System settings. Validation that the value of the setting is in the correct form for the setting type should be performed by the caller.

The settings that can be updated by a device owner or profile owner of secondary user with this method are:

• Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS
• Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS_MODE
• Settings.System.SCREEN_OFF_TIMEOUT

Starting from Android Build.VERSION_CODES.VANILLA_ICE_CREAM, a profile owner on an organization-owned device can call this method on the parent DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) to set system settings on the parent user.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
setting	String: The name of the setting to update. This value cannot be null. Value is Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS_MODE, Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS, or Settings.System.SCREEN_OFF_TIMEOUT

setSystemUpdatePolicy

Added in API level 23

public void setSystemUpdatePolicy (ComponentName admin, 
                SystemUpdatePolicy policy)

Called by device owners or profile owners of an organization-owned managed profile to set a local system update policy. When a new policy is set, ACTION_SYSTEM_UPDATE_POLICY_CHANGED is broadcast.

If the supplied system update policy has freeze periods set but the freeze periods do not meet 90-day maximum length or 60-day minimum separation requirement set out in SystemUpdatePolicy#setFreezePeriods, SystemUpdatePolicy.ValidationFailedException will the thrown. Note that the system keeps a record of freeze periods the device experienced previously, and combines them with the new freeze periods to be set when checking the maximum freeze length and minimum freeze separation constraints. As a result, freeze periods that passed validation during SystemUpdatePolicy#setFreezePeriods might fail the additional checks here due to the freeze period history. If this is causing issues during development, adb shell dpm clear-freeze-period-record can be used to clear the record.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. All components in the package can set system update policies and the most recent policy takes effect. This should be null if the caller is not a device admin.
policy	SystemUpdatePolicy: the new policy, or null to clear the current policy.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile, or the caller is not permitted to set this policy
IllegalArgumentException	if the policy type or maintenance window is not valid.
SystemUpdatePolicy.ValidationFailedException	if the policy's freeze period does not meet the requirement.

setTime

Added in API level 28

public boolean setTime (ComponentName admin, 
                long millis)

Called by a device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to set the system wall clock time. This only takes effect if called when Settings.Global.AUTO_TIME is 0, otherwise false will be returned.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
millis	long: time in milliseconds since the Epoch

Returns
boolean	true if set time succeeded, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile.

setTimeZone

Added in API level 28

public boolean setTimeZone (ComponentName admin, 
                String timeZone)

Called by a device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile to set the system's persistent default time zone. This only takes effect if called when Settings.Global.AUTO_TIME_ZONE is 0, otherwise false will be returned.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin. This value may be null.
timeZone	String: one of the Olson ids from the list returned by TimeZone.getAvailableIDs()

Returns
boolean	true if set timezone succeeded, false otherwise.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not a device owner or a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile.

setTrustAgentConfiguration

Added in API level 23

public void setTrustAgentConfiguration (ComponentName admin, 
                ComponentName target, 
                PersistableBundle configuration)

Sets a list of configuration features to enable for a trust agent component. This is meant to be used in conjunction with KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS, which disables all trust agents but those enabled by this function call. If flag KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS is not set, then this call has no effect.

For any specific trust agent, whether it is disabled or not depends on the aggregated state of each admin's KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS setting and its trust agent configuration as set by this function call. In particular: if any admin sets KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS and does not additionally set any trust agent configuration, the trust agent is disabled completely. Otherwise, the trust agent will receive the list of configurations from all admins who set KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS and aggregate the configurations to determine its behavior. The exact meaning of aggregation is trust-agent-specific.

A calling device admin must have requested DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_DISABLE_KEYGUARD_FEATURES to be able to call this method; if not, a security exception will be thrown.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance returned by getParentProfileInstance(android.content.ComponentName) in order to set the configuration for the parent profile.

On devices not supporting PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature, calling this method has no effect - no trust agent configuration will be set.
Requires the PackageManager#FEATURE_SECURE_LOCK_SCREEN feature which can be detected using PackageManager.hasSystemFeature(String).

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: Which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. Null if the caller is not a device admin This value may be null.
target	ComponentName: Component name of the agent to be configured. This value cannot be null.
configuration	PersistableBundle: Trust-agent-specific feature configuration bundle. Please consult documentation of the specific trust agent to determine the interpretation of this bundle.

Throws
SecurityException	if admin is not an active administrator or does not use DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_DISABLE_KEYGUARD_FEATURES

setUninstallBlocked

Added in API level 28

public void transferOwnership (ComponentName admin, 
                ComponentName target, 
                PersistableBundle bundle)

Changes the current administrator to another one. All policies from the current administrator are migrated to the new administrator. The whole operation is atomic - the transfer is either complete or not done at all.

Depending on the current administrator (device owner, profile owner), you have the following expected behaviour:

• A device owner can only be transferred to a new device owner

The transfer has failed if the original administrator is still the corresponding owner after calling this method.

The incoming target administrator must have the <support-transfer-ownership /> tag inside the <device-admin></device-admin> tags in the xml file referenced by DeviceAdminReceiver#DEVICE_ADMIN_META_DATA. Otherwise an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.

Parameters
admin	ComponentName: which DeviceAdminReceiver this request is associated with. This value cannot be null.
target	ComponentName: which DeviceAdminReceiver we want the new administrator to be. This value cannot be null.
bundle	PersistableBundle: data to be sent to the new administrator. This value may be null.

wipeData

Added in API level 28

public void wipeData (int flags, 
                CharSequence reason)

Ask that all user data be wiped.

If called as a secondary user or managed profile, the user itself and its associated user data will be wiped. In particular, If the caller is a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile, calling this method will relinquish the device for personal use, removing the managed profile and all policies set by the profile owner.

Calling this method from the primary user will only work if the calling app is targeting SDK level Build.VERSION_CODES#TIRAMISU or below, in which case it will cause the device to reboot, erasing all device data - including all the secondary users and their data - while booting up. If an app targeting SDK level Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE and above is calling this method from the primary user or last full user, IllegalStateException will be thrown.

If an app wants to wipe the entire device irrespective of which user they are from, they should use wipeDevice(int) instead.

Parameters
flags	int: Bit mask of additional options: currently supported flags are WIPE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, WIPE_RESET_PROTECTION_DATA and WIPE_EUICC.
reason	CharSequence: a string that contains the reason for wiping data, which can be presented to the user. This value cannot be null.

Throws
SecurityException	if the calling application does not own an active administrator that uses DeviceAdminInfo#USES_POLICY_WIPE_DATA and is not granted the Manifest.permission.MASTER_CLEAR or Manifest.permission.MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_WIPE_DATA permissions.
IllegalArgumentException	if the input reason string is null or empty, or if WIPE_SILENTLY is set.
IllegalStateException	if called on last full-user or system-user
