@ohos.enterprise.applicationManager (Application Management) (System API)

The applicationManager module provides application management capabilities, including adding, removing, and obtaining the applications that are forbidden to run.

NOTE

  • The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 10. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.

  • The APIs of this module can be used only in the stage model.

  • The APIs of this module can be called only by a device administrator application that is enabled.

  • This topic describes only the system APIs provided by the module. For details about its public APIs, see @ohos.enterprise.applicationManager.

Modules to Import

import { applicationManager } from '@kit.MDMKit';

applicationManager.addDisallowedRunningBundles

addDisallowedRunningBundles(admin: Want, appIds: Array<string>, callback: AsyncCallback<void>): void

Adds the applications that are not allowed to run by the current user through the specified device administrator application. This API uses an asynchronous callback to return the result.

System capability: SystemCapability.Customization.EnterpriseDeviceManager

Parameters

Name Type Mandatory Description
admin Want Yes Device administrator application.
appIds Array<string> Yes IDs of the applications to add.
callback AsyncCallback<void> Yes Callback used to return the result. If the operation is successful, err is null. Otherwise, err is an error object.
