Better documentation for Apple Mobile Configs #40

Open cohenchris opened 1 year ago

cohenchris commented 1 year ago

There is nearly zero documentation (that I can find) about creating a proper Apple Mobile config for this service. Specifically, I'm not sure what these fields mean, or what exactly they should contain;

Im with you on this. No idea how to set up autodiscover to work with Apple Mac Mail

you can generate random UUIDs here https://www.uuidgenerator.net/version4 see apple doc about what it is : https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/commonpayloadkeys

and then you can follow instructions here https://github.com/wdes/mail-autodiscover-autoconfig#install-on-apple starting on point 2, as obviously, if you set the profile identifier, uuid, and mail uuid, then on the https://autodiscover.yourdomain.tld you have a "Apple Configuration Profile" section poping up in the default page like in the readme's screenshot, and you can get your mobile profile from the small form. (i believe it would be better to have a real UUID generated with an apple developper account, but with fake UUID it still works

it will not be a signed profile, so you'll get a warning when installing on apple devices, but autoconfiguration works as expected.
