About the Web Clip configuration profile
The Web Clip configuration profile allows an administrator to create Web Clips (i.e. web bookmarks) to the home screen of the target device. The Web Clip can point to a web page or a web app and will be launched on the device web browser when the end-user taps it.

- URL - The Web Clip URL. It should begin with HTTP or HTTPS.

Other optional settings:
- Icon - The custom icon must be in PNG format. The maximum size of the icon is 180 x 180 pixels, and the maximum file size is 100 KB. If there is no custom icon uploaded, a default icon provided by LogMeIn Resolve MDM is used. Please note that web pages might have unique icons, also known as favicons, which you can most often find in the address bar of the web browser. When the user enters the URL via Web Clip, the favicon replaces the icon uploaded from LogMeIn Resolve MDM.
- Removable - This defines whether the end-user can delete the Web Clip.
- Launch as full-screen - This defines if the Web Clip is launched as a full-screen web app.

- Target application bundle identifier - Specifies the target application for the URL. This setting requires iOS 14 or above.
