Configure push notification certificates for WorkZone Mobile

If you want to send notifications from WorkZone Process to WorkZone Mobile, you need an Apple Push Services certificate. With the installation of WorkZone Process, two certificates are installed to the certificate store.

Usage Certificate name

Unmanaged app

Apple Push Services: dk.kmd.WorkZone

Managed by Microsoft Intune

Apple Push Services: dk.kmd.workzone.intune

When you run WorkZone Process Configurator, the certificate used by the unmanaged app will be added to the config file by default.

If you run WorkZone Mobile as a managed app in Microsoft Intune, you need to change the default certificate to the Intune certificate. This is done in the config file.

Change the certificate in the config file

  1. Open the Scanjour.Process.Notification.AgentHost.exe.config file located:

    2. C:\Program Files (x86)\KMD\WorkZone\Process\Bin\Scanjour.Process.Notification.AgentHost.exe.config

  2. Change the value of the ApnsServerCertificateName parameter to the name or the thumbprint of the Intune certificate.

If you upgrade WorkZone Process, the certificate in the config file will not be changed.

Check the expiration date for the certificates

You can check the expiration dates of the push notification certificates in the certificate store.

  1. Open the Scanjour.Process.Notification.AgentHost.exe.config file. To see the location of the certificates, go to:

    <setting name="ApnsServerCertificateStoreName" serializeAs="String"><value>Trusted People</value></setting>

    In this example, the location is Trusted People.

  2. Open the certificate store, and go to Trusted People > Certificates to see the expiration date.
