Using an enterprise app for Single App Mode with Profile Manager in Mavericks Server (MDM)

Question

I have a bunch of iPads that are all supervised, and that are enrolled into a MDM server (Mavericks Server). I've added the app to the specific device group, but when I go to the profile settings and Single App Mode the only apps I can select are the builtin ones.

Is there no way to use a third party (enterprise) app as the app for Single App Mode?

EDIT: If you use Apple Configurator and add the app there you can set Single App Mode to use that app, I would imagine that would be possible when doing the same in Apple's Profile Manager, but it doesn't seem to be working here.

EDIT2: Looking at Apple's documentation it does indeed seem to be possible to select a third party app for single app mode using their Profile Manager, so why isn't the app showing in the list for me?

Answer 1

Go to the Device Group, after installing the app (that you want to show in Single App Mode dropdown and lock it to) do "Update Info" (small icon in bottom-middle-left of screen) on all the devices in that group. Wait a bit, then go to Single App Mode screen again, the app should start appearing.Works for me. The "Update Info" thing also works for Single Device as well and you can lock to any new app installed from Profile Manger, doesn't matter if the app was installed while supervising through Configurator or not.

So interestingly enough in the new update for Server (3.1.1) this seems to be working. The Enterprise app is now listed in the dropdown box.

However there also is about 10 empty items in the box with no text description. So it's clearly still a bit buggy.
