All Smart Glasses in your deployment must be enrolled before they can communicate with Workspace ONE UEM and access internal content and features. Enrollment is facilitated with the Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub for Android.
The enrollment flow of Smart Glasses are in the following order:
- Create an Enrollment User
- Upload the Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub .APF File for Smart Glasses
Upload the .apf file for your Smart Glasses deployment to enable a simplified enrollment. - Create Android (Legacy) Wi-Fi Profile for Staging Smart Glasses(Optional)
The staging Wi-Fi profile connects a device to a Wi-Fi network used for enrollment if the device is not configured to a network. - Create a Staging Package for Smart Glasses Create a staging package to configure your devices to connect to Wi-Fi, download the Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub, and enroll Smart Glasses with minimal interaction.
- Generate a Sideload Staging Package Workspace ONE UEM can create a sideload staging package that allows you to create one side staging enrollment for all devices and assign the device to an Organization Group as needed.
- Enroll Google Glass Using QR Code Enrollment The QR code enrollment method sets up and configures Google Glass smart glasses by scanning a QR code. The QR code contains a payload of JSON values with all the information needed for the device to be enrolled.
Important: The Google Glass enrollment script in the staging package includes additional commands that can be manually enabled. If you plan on blocking adb access, please note that if adb needs to be re-enabled at a later time, it can only be done by a trusted computer. This will typically be the computer that was used to run the script in the first place, or any computer trusted previously by Google Glass prior to enrollment.

Enroll Google Glass Using QR Code Enrollment
The QR code enrollment method sets up and configures Google Glass smart glasses by scanning a QR code. The QR code contains a payload of JSON values with all the information needed for the device to be enrolled.
Note: Various word processing applications use special characters for editing. Using copy/paste can pick up those characters, invalidating your JSON. Consider validating your JSON using any free online tool.
You can use any online QR Code generator, such as Web Toolkit Online, to create your QR code before beginning enrollment. The QR code includes the Server URL and Group ID information. You can also include the user name and password or the user has to enter their credentials. Here is the format of the text to paste into the QR Code generator:
{
“COMPONENT”: “com.airwatch.androidagent/com.airwatch.agent.DeviceAdministratorReceiver”,
“LOCATION”: “https://getwsone.com/mobileenrollment/airwatchagent.apk", “NFC_MIME”: “application/com.airwatch.agent.enroll”,
“NFC_MIME”: “application/com.airwatch.agent.enroll”,
“EXTRAS”: “serverurl=https://EnrollmentURL/AirWatch\ngid=EnrollmentOG\nun=EnrollmentUserName\npw=EnrollmentUserPassword”
}
Note: QR Code enrollment is only applicable to Google Glass.
