The modernized Omnissa Workspace ONE UEM provides a faster resource deployment mechanism and an efficient deployment tracking experience.
Using the tracking features and in-depth statistics that the Workspace ONE UEM console offers, you can easily track and monitor the deployment progress of a public app, when you deploy and install it on your end users' devices and take the necessary actions for devices that require immediate attention.
Assignment Preview
When the assignments are saved for the public application, an assignment preview is presented before publishing the assignments. This preview acts as a snapshot, providing a quick overview of any changes made to the assignments. Its purpose is to help you identify any significant deviations in assignments that might have occurred accidentally before publishing.
The following assignment statuses help you quickly identify any substantial changes in assignments:
-
Assigned - This represents the total number of devices targeted to receive the application based on Smart Group criteria. It is calculated by subtracting the devices that are excluded from the assignments and those that are not eligible to receive the application due to applicability rules (for example, iOS devices are assigned to receive an Android app) from the total number of devices assigned through smart groups.
-
Newly Added - These are the devices that are newly assigned to receive the application.
-
Newly Removed- This includes devices that have lost their assignment to the application due to updates in existing assignments or newly added exclusions.
-
Unchanged - These devices continue to retain their assignments even after any updates are made to the assignments.
Additionally, the assignment preview includes an estimated time for devices to receive the install or uninstall instructions for the public apps. The estimated time provided for assigned devices to receive the install or uninstall instructions for the public app reflects the percentage of devices expected to receive these instructions within the next 4 hours. This estimate is based on the historical check-in frequency of the devices. Note that this estimate represents the best-case scenario, as devices may not receive install or uninstall instructions if they fail to check in after the application is published.
Also, the estimated time is only applicable when the deployment type is set to Auto. For On-demand deployments, devices receive instructions when a user chooses to install the public application or when an admin force pushes it from the console.
Deployment Tracking Dashboard
The deployment tracking dashboard provides in-depth insights into the deployment progress of a public application. You can monitor installation progress in real-time through intuitive and interactive charts, apply filters, view device-level installation statuses, and perform bulk operations on devices. This functionality empowers you to quickly identify and address any issue, resulting in successful deployments.
To access the tracking dashboard for your public application:
-
Navigate to Resources > Apps > Native Apps > Public.
-
Select the application from the displayed app list. You can also use the search functionality to easily find the app.
-
Click on the application's hyperlink.
The deployment tracking dashboard specific to that application, providing detailed insights and tracking capabilities, is displayed.
The deployment tracking dashboard has various elements that help you access app data and monitor the deployment progress effectively.
-
Header: This section offers metadata about the application and presents various operations that can be performed on the app such as editing or assigning the app.
-
Summary Stats: This section presents a high-level summary of deployment statistics, including the number of devices targeted for assignment, those with confirmed assignments, devices pending evaluation, those excluded from assignment, and devices where the application is installed but not assigned.
-
Charts and Device Grids: This section contains intuitive and interactive charts that provide a visual representation of the public app deployment progress and filters to view the individual device installation statuses, along with the ability to perform bulk device actions.
This section is divided into four tabs corresponding to the summary stats: Currently assigned, Pending, Excluded, and Installed but not assigned. Each tab offers comprehensive tracking information and lists devices based on their respective categories.
Target Assignments
Target Assignments count represents the total number of devices targeted to receive the application based on Smart Group criteria.
It is calculated by subtracting the devices that are excluded from the assignments and those that are not eligible to receive the application due to applicability rules (for example, iOS devices are assigned to receive an Android app) from the total number of devices assigned through smart groups.
Target Assignments = Devices assigned through Smart Groups - Excluded devices - Inapplicable devices.
For example, let’s say there are 500 devices assigned to receive the application through smart groups. However, 50 of these devices are excluded from receiving the application through exclusion, and an additional 20 devices are not able to install this application (for example, iOS devices assigned to receive an Android app). In this case, the Target Assignments count is 500 (Devices assigned through smart groups) - 50 (Excluded devices) - 20 (Inapplicable devices) = 430 devices.
Currently Assigned
The Currently Assigned tab displays devices that have a confirmed assignment to the application at any given time.
When a device targeted for assignment checks in, UEM assesses whether it's eligible to receive the application. If the device is eligible, it receives a confirmed assignment. Offline devices can take up to 6 hours to receive a confirmed assignment based on periodic offline assessments performed by UEM.
Charts
The Currently Assigned tab provides self-explanatory charts to track the progress of deployment, a detailed devices grid showcasing installation-specific attributes, and options to filter the devices.
| Charts | Description |
|---|---|
| Installation Status | The Installation Status chart shows whether an application is installed or not on devices. It gives you a clear view of how many devices have the application installed and how many don't, helping you track deployment progress and adoption rates. The different installation statuses are: Installed - Displays the counts of devices that have successfully installed the application. Not Installed - Displays the count of devices that are yet to install the application. You can select the 'Not Installed' filter option to view devices in this category and get a more detailed breakdown with installation status details (For example, 'Downloading', 'Prompting') and Last action status. Together, they provide insights into whether an install instruction is issued to the device, why certain apps have not been installed, and the underlying factors contributing to their non-installation. |
| Installation Status Details | The Installation Status Details chart provides detailed information about the installation state of the application. This information complements the corresponding installation status. Here are some of the detailed statuses: Prompting: Indicates that a prompt is being displayed on the device, awaiting user action to either accept or cancel the application installation. You can determine the number of devices where the installation prompt is pending by selecting the 'Prompting' option from the chart. This allows you to precisely identify how many users have not yet accepted the prompt to install the application. Download in Progress: Indicates that the application is currently being downloaded onto the device. Installing: Indicates that the application has been downloaded and the installation process is in progress. Managed: Indicates that the application is installed and managed by the Workspace ONE UEM Console. This is the final state for the Installation status detail. Unknown: Indicates that either the installation has not commenced on the application, or the device might not have yet sent management information to UEM. |
| Last Action | The 'Last Action' chart represents the various actions taken by the Workspace ONE UEM console on the device regarding the application. Here are some of the last actions: Install: Indicates that the device received the command to install the application. Remove: Indicates that the device received the command to uninstall the application. Unknown: Indicates that UEM didn't issue any command to the device regarding the application. |

Pending Devices
The Pending tab contains devices that are yet to be evaluated after an application is published. It's critical to monitor these pending devices since a device can only be assigned to the application and receive installation instructions on evaluation.
The Pending tab provides a detailed device grid with device-specific attributes and options to filter the devices.
Listed are the scenarios when a device is considered pending.
- When an application is newly published, and the devices are pending evaluation.
- When app assignments are updated, all devices targeted for that app are marked as Pending evaluation until they check in, including devices that were evaluated and are displayed as currently assigned. This ensures that all targeted devices are re‑evaluated against the latest assignment updates.
Devices Grid
The devices grid provides detailed information about each device that is Pending, allowing you to perform bulk device-level actions.
| Column | Description |

Installation Status in Applications List View
To align with deployment tracking changes, we have updated the quick deployment summary view displayed for applications in the application list view page.
When you hover on 'view' in the 'Install Status' column of an application, it displays four key metrics.
| Metrics | Description |
|---|---|
| Not Installed | This refers to the total count of devices that are currently assigned to the application but have not yet installed the application. Clicking this count redirects you to the Deployment tracking page, with the view defaulted to the 'Currently Assigned' tab and a filter applied on 'Installation status' as 'Not Installed'. |
| Installed | This refers to the total count of devices currently assigned to the application that have successfully installed it. Clicking this count redirects you to the Deployment tracking page, with the view defaulted to the ‘Currently Assigned’ tab and a filter applied on ‘Installation status’ as ‘Installed’ |
| Directly assigned | This refers to the total count of devices that are currently assigned to the application and receive assignments only through a ‘direct’ assignment. Clicking this count redirects you to the Deployment tracking page, where the view defaults to the 'Currently Assigned' tab and applies filters on 'Assignment type' as 'Assigned' and 'Assignment source' as 'Direct'. |
| Workflow assigned | This refers to the total count of devices currently assigned to the application, and also receives the assignments through a ‘Freestyle Workflow’. Clicking this count redirects you to the Deployment tracking page, where the view defaults to the 'Currently Assigned' tab and applies filters on 'Assignment type' as 'Assigned' and 'Assignment source' as 'Workflow'. |
App Status in Device Details Apps List view
To align with the deployment tracking changes, we have updated the 'App Status' column in the Device details > Apps List View page.
In addition to the existing 'App Status' like 'Installed' and 'Not Installed,' a new status, 'Installed but not assigned', is available.
The 'Installed but not assigned' status applies to any application installed on the device that wasn't assigned through the Workspace ONE UEM console. This includes system apps, personally installed apps, or side-loaded apps. Some public apps may also fall under this status if they were previously installed but have lost assignments. These public apps will eventually be uninstalled from the device, but until then, they will be categorized as 'Installed but not assigned.'
