Provisioning the Mobile Client

Using the Provision URL

From Swivel version 3.9.7 onwards, a Provision URL is usually sent to allow the user to allow the server settings and the Mobile Provision Code. The Activate URL can be clicked on and:

  • Opened in the Swivel Application to automatically configure the Mobile App
  • Opened in a web browser that displays a Get Server Settings button that allows the mobile client to be configured and provisioned.

Failure Please check your settings or try again later. Message: Provision Failure

This can be caused by an incorrect Mobile Provision Code, or the time allowed for provisioning a device has been exceeded.

Note: The security strings on the mobile phone will be invalid until a successful provision is carried out and a new set of security strings are downloaded.
