Notifications

Roaming detection notifications give you visibility of roaming users as soon as their status is detected. Note that this does not apply to any countries that have been included in the domestic plan within the Plan Details.

Data usage notifications can be sent after a specified amount of data is consumed, or at a percentage of the users' cap. These can be set for both Domestic, as well as Roaming usage.

You can set the following:

• Point at which a data usage reminder is sent

• Additional increments of data usage

• Additional percentage point after the initial notification has been sent

When configuring mobile and Wi-Fi data usage notifications, you can configure separate policies and set exceptions per group of users. By default, the global Base Policy will apply to all users.

Mobile Data Usage - Per Device

• Data Usage - Notify at cap reached —

  This setting works identically to when Data Usage - Notify at is set to 100% of the cap or to an "MB" value the same as the Threshold set for the Cap Settings under Policies > Internet > Data Usage Policy. Even if you have enabled both settings, users won't be notified twice.

• Data Usage - Notify at —

  You'll be notified when the user has hit a certain "MB" value on their monthly policy. You can also set a percentage of the cap that you set on the Domestic tab under Policies > Internet > Data Usage Policy, and receive notifications when this percentage is reached. This notification is only sent once.

• Data Usage Reminders —

  This reminder email notification will be sent after the initial Data Usage notification and will recur at intervals specified, at either a specific "MB" value or a percentage of the cap.

Roaming – "All mobile data is disabled" notification

This notification will tell you when all mobile data is disabled on the device based on your data usage policy in Jamf Security Cloud, which you can set by navigating to the Roaming tab under Policies > Internet > Data Usage Policy. By selecting Disable All Mobile Data, you have the ability to completely shut off mobile data for an iOS device while it's roaming at a certain MB level. This notification will then be sent to you via email when a user has received this cap.

Roaming Alerts

• Device begins Roaming —

  The administrator will be notified via email when a user has entered a roaming state. This requires location services to be enabled on the user's device to properly track their location information.

• Device ends Roaming —

  The administrator will be notified via email when a user has entered a domestic state. This requires location services to be enabled on the user's device to properly track their location information.

Changing the number of block notifications that can be sent per 24-hour period

A daily rate limit for push notifications is applied to each device separately. The default is 4 for low priority notifications per 24-hour period, per device, no matter the app or site. That is, the device would receive one notification per 24-hour period, per site or app.

If the device receives 4 other low priority notifications (typically security notifications), then no other low priority notifications (either block or other security ones) will be sent that day.

If you would like to change the number of notifications, contact Jamf Support.

Wi-Fi Data Usage

You can define rules for Wi-Fi related notifications to notify users when they are blocked from accessing content.
