Android Inventory Agent v1.6.0

Features

Scheduler

The Task Scheduler running automatic inventory has been rewritten using JobScheduler.

This allows Android to determine the optimal timing for executing the automatic inventory within the defined time interval (day, week, month), while adhering to Android's recommendations regarding battery usage, mobile network access, etc.

Notification

The notifications engine has been rewritten to comply with Android.

From Android 13 onwards, you will be asked to authorize notifications on first startup.

(You can revert to this configuration in the notification settings of your Android device).

Permissions

The permission process has been rewritten for better compatibility with the latest version of Android.

Bug Fixes

Fix compatibility with Android 14

• Fixed crash on first startup
• Remove ServiceForeground that causing crash on Android 14
• Fixed crash about registerReceiver

Android Inventory Agent v1.5.0

Features

Configuring the Agent with an EMM / MDM Tool

The GLPI agent can be deployed/configured from an MDM / EMM tool

• Samsung Knox
• AirWatch
• InTunes
• MobileIron
• etc.

As long as the MDM / EMM tool is compatible with managed configurations, you can configure the GLPI Agent (at deployment or on the fly).

Here is the list of configurable settings:

• auto_start_on_boot => Run an inventory at startup (Bool true / false)
• automatic_inventory => Enable automatic inventory (Bool true / false)
• frequency => Frequency of automatic inventory (String Day / Week / Month default Day)
• server_configuration_list => (Bundle)
  • server_url => GLPI server URL (String)
  • server_tag => TAG (String)
  • server_login => Username for basic authentication (String)
  • server_password => Password for basic authentication (String)
  • server_itemtype => Asset type in GLPI (String Computer / Phone default Computer)
  • server_custom_asset_serial => Custom serial number to replace the one generated by the agent (String)

Android Inventory Agent v1.4.0

Features

• Inventory: added new option to override serial number (90bece6c7)

Note

Why this new option

In new versions of Android, it is no longer possible to retrieve the ‘real’ phone's serial number (considered as sensitive and private data).

The agent therefore generates a UUID as recommended by Google
https://developer.android.com/training/articles/user-data-ids#best-practices-android-identifiers

However, on a factory reset or when reinstalling the agent, this UUID changes and when an inventory is uploaded, GLPI will create a new device (because the serial number is different).

It is now possible to define a serial number (with the one already stored in GLPI) to avoids duplication in the GLPI inventory.

The new one is available from the server creation form :

Plugin Agent Config

The new version of the Agent Config plugin has also been updated to include a QRCode / DeepLink containing the asset serial number.
