Client configuration - Wickr Enterprise

This guide provides documentation for Wickr Enterprise. If you're using AWS Wickr, see AWS Wickr Administration Guide.

Client configuration

Config file or deeplinks created on the Client Configuration screen are the second most important thing an end user needs to successfully register and use Wickr Enterprise.

Note

Deeplink passwords are optional.

It displays currently active files or deeplinks, and will allow the administrator to expire an active token, as well as download it again.

Note

It is not possible to download configuration files created before version 5.70.

The files and links are only used for the initial connection to Enterprise config files and must be password protected, as the information within is encrypted. This allows the client to establish a connection to the Enterprise service, but a user must still have a valid username and password to complete the Registration or Sign In process.

After creating the configuration file, a deeplink URL and a deeplink landing page URL will also be created.

The deeplink is a URL that will launch the app directly (on desktop, iOS, and Android) but may not be directly usable on a mobile client. For security reasons many mobile mechanisms for rendering that link will block it. In general, deeplink should work on desktop devices.

Note

Deeplink is not supported on Linux.

The deeplink landing page is a URL that any user can access from any normal mechanism. This is the URL that should be distributed if the company is not hosting their own internal website for the config file.

Configuration naming

Administrators can enter custom names to identify the Wickr Enterprise configurations they generate for client setup.
