App permissions device policy 编辑

For Android Enterprise apps that are within work profiles: You can configure how requests to those apps handle what Google calls “dangerous” permissions. You control whether the user is prompted to grant or deny the permission request from the app. This feature applies to devices running Android 7.0 and later.

Google defines dangerous permissions as permissions that:

• Give the app access to data or resources that involve the user’s private information.
• Or, can potentially affect the user’s stored data or the operation of other apps. For example, the ability to read user contacts is a dangerous permission.

You can configure a global status to control the behavior of all dangerous permission requests. The scope of this configuration is Android Enterprise apps that are within work profiles. You can also control the behavior of dangerous permission request for individual permission groups, as defined by Google, for each app. These individual settings override the global status.

For information on how Google defines permission groups, see the Android developers guide.

By default, users are prompted to grant of deny dangerous permission requests.

To add or configure this policy, go to Configure > Device Policies. For more information, see Device policies.
