5.5 Configuring Appmarks for Office 365 Applications

By default, the connector for Office 365 includes a single appmark that is configured for the user’s home page. You can modify this default appmark or create additional appmarks as needed. Appmarks that are then mapped in Policy Mapping appear on the landing page and/or in the MobileAccess app for entitled users. For more information, see Section 2.5, Configuring Appmarks for Connectors.

NOTE:If you configure appmarks for users to launch Office 365 applications using Safari on mobile devices, you should instruct users to set Safari to never block cookies. Alternatively, consider selecting another Launch with option to ensure that users do not experience logout errors. For more information, see Office 365 Logout Error on Mobile Devices.

To configure appmarks:

  1. Log in with an appliance administrator account to the Admin page at 

    https://appliance_dns_name/appliance/index.html

  2. Click the configured connector for Office 365 on the Applications panel, then click Configure.

  3. Click the Appmarks tab.

  4. Modify appmarks as needed.

    For more information about configuring appmarks, see Section 2.5, Configuring Appmarks for Connectors.

  5. Click OK.

  6. On the Admin page, click Apply to commit the changes to the appliance.

  7. Wait until the configuration changes have been applied on each node of the CloudAccess cluster.

  8. Click Policy in the toolbar, then perform policy mapping to specify entitlements for identity source roles (groups).

    For more information about policy mapping, see Mapping Authorizations in the NetIQ® CloudAccess and MobileAccess Installation and Configuration Guide.

After the appliance has finished applying your changes, the appmarks appear on the landing page or in the MobileAccess app for users to whom you have granted access.
