Description
Managed app configurations allow MDM solutions to remotely deliver data to a managed device which can be used by the app to customize the user experience or app behavior. Check with the app developer to see if the app allows managed configurations and what the values are. For example Facebook and Twitter have their own developer documentation on how to create managed configurations.

Notes about Managed Configurations in Jamf School
You can create multiple managed configurations by selecting Add New in the bottom-left corner of the Managed Configuration box
If a device is in multiple scopes, it'll use the managed configuration of the scope that was initially selected
If the app is scoped by a teacher, it will pick the default managed configuration; if no default is set, it will not use a managed configuration
