Device Detail View -- Applications
What
The Applications tab in the Device Detail view gives you a list of applications installed on the particular endpoint. The details provided differ by platform and type of enrollment. The view is directly linkable via https://my.server.address/devices/<fw_device_id>/apps
When/Why
This view will gives us details on installed applications, which allows us to quickly look and see information such as what version of a particular application is installed. Note that the data that shows on this tab is only as accurate up until the last time the device reported inventory. Assume that you have a device that has been offline for 3 months in a desk drawer while you are rolling out a new version of Chrome. This view for that device is going to show an old version, as we would expect.
How
We access the Applications tab just by clicking on the tab at the top of the view. This view can be controlled by sorting and pinning columns. The filtering option for this table makes it really easy to isolate records.
Certain enrollment types (like iOS BYOD enrollment) prevent the inventory of applications beyond the applications that are "managed". That is, with those devices, you can only see what has been installed by FileWave.
