Calendar device management payload settings for Apple devices
Use the Calendar payload to provide account settings for connecting to a CalDAV-compliant calendar server. You add these accounts for users of an iPhone, iPad, Shared iPad, Mac, or Apple Vision Pro that enrolls in a device management service. As with Exchange accounts, users need to manually enter information you omit from the profile, such as their account password, when the profile installs.
The Calendar payload supports the following. For more information, see Payload information.
Supported payload identifier: com.apple.caldav.account
Supported operating systems and channels: iOS, iPadOS, Shared iPad user, macOS user, visionOS 1.1.
Supported enrollment methods: User Enrollment, Device Enrollment, Automated Device Enrollment.
Duplicates allowed: True—more than one Calendar payload can be delivered to a user or device.
You can use the settings in the table below with the Calendar payload.
Setting | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
Account description | The display name for the account. | No |
Hostname | The IP address or fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the CalDAV server. | Yes |
Port | The port number of the CalDAV server. | Yes |
Principal URL | The principal URL for the CalDAV account. | No |
Account user name | The user name for the CalDAV account. | Yes |
Account password | The password of the CalDAV account. If you leave this field empty, users need to enter their password after the payload is installed on the device. | No |
Use SSL | When the Use SSL option is selected and the server’s SSL certificate isn’t issued by a trusted certificate authority known to the devices, use the Certificates payload to add any root or intermediate certificates that are necessary to validate the server’s SSL certificate. | No |
Note: Each device management service developer implements these settings differently. To learn how various Calendar settings are applied to your users, consult your developer’s device management service documentation.
