MAM SDK overview
With the move away from the MDX Toolkit, the MAM SDK replaces areas of MDX functionalities not covered by the iOS and Android platforms. Rather than wrapping third-party apps using the MDX Service or MDX Toolkit, you instead create apps using the MAM SDK. This method of developing apps allows you to call on the APIs directly instead of relying on a wrapper. For more information about the MAM SDK APIs, see the developer documentation forMobile Application Integration.
The MAM SDK is available for:
- iOS 12+
- Objective C/Swift
- Android 10.x, 11.x, 12.x, 13.x
- Java
- Cordova
- Xamarin
The MAM SDK does not currently support the Citrix Identity Platform.
Citrix recommends that you download the MAM SDK and test it before we deprecate the MDX Toolkit. You can find the downloads atMAM SDKs and Toolkit.
To use the MAM SDK, follow these steps:
- Download the relevant MAM SDK for the language you use for development. You can find the files you need on the Citrix download pageMAM SDKs and Toolkit.
- Extract the files you downloaded and place them in your development folder.
- Develop your apps and call on the appropriate APIs. For information about the APIs available as part of the MAM SDK, see the developer documentation forMobile Application Integration.
The MDX files are generated automatically for iOS and Android as part of the build process.
For more information about automatically generating the MDX file for the respective iOS MAM SDKs, see the following sections:
- Implementing the Compliance library into your application
- Implementing the Containment library into your application
- Implementing the Local Authentication library into your application
- Implementing the micro VPN library into your application
For more information about automatically generating the MDX file for the respective Android MAM SDKs, see the following sections:
- Setting up the Citrix micro VPN plug-in for Android Native
- Setting up the Citrix micro VPN plug-in for Cordova
- Setting up the Citrix micro VPN plug-in for Xamarin
For more information about manually generating the MDX file for the respective MAM SDKs, see the following section:
For more information about manually generating the MDX file for the respective MAM SDKs, see the following sections:
- Upload the MDX file to the Endpoint Management console as described in theApps article.
- You can also distribute iOS apps through Apple Volume Purchase. For more information on this distribution method, seeApple Volume Purchase.
- Similarly, you can distribute apps through Android Enterprise. For more information on distributing apps through Android Enterprise, see提供Citrix移动生产力应用穿心莲内酯id Enterprise users.
Note:
When you use the MAM SDK, you do not need to wrap apps.
Third-party app policies for iOS and Android
The following table displays third-party policies you can integrate in your iOS and Android app using the MAM SDK. In the table,Xindicates only the device policies supported as part of the MAM SDK. For Android Enterprise policies labeled asUse platform检查设备的政策in the Endpoint Management platform to verify that you can add the policy.
For more information about the MAM SDK libraries, see the developer documentation forMobile Application Integration.
