Webclips in multi-user mode

I'm having trouble trying to do something which I believe should be simple. 


I've looked across google and some of the posts here but nothing definitive and tried their suggestions with no luck. 

 

I basically use ASM and multiple users are able to use the shared ipads. I have setup profiles for home screen layouts and added all the required apps with no issues then got a request for a webclip to a website they use frequently. 

 

I've tried a user and device profile. 

I've tried setting the default app as Safari and Webclip. 

I've made sure to allow webclips in the restrictions profile.

 

All I ever get is "Error: The payload type “com.apple.webClip.managed” is not permitted to be installed for the system in multi-user mode." I find it baffling that you can't simply add a shortcut to a device that multiple users use. 

 

Is this really not possible?

 

What am I doing wrong? 

 

Thanks

 

Mitchell

Kind of a big deal

Based on what I see from Apple this should be supported.

I don't use shared iPads so I've never tested it personally and Meraki's documentation doesn't address it at all.

I did find this previous thread where someone was able to get it working.
