App can't open AirWatch without adding schema in Xcode
I have a cordova iOS app (managed by VmWare Agent) that needs to call a URL in AirWatch, where the user can log in with the client's SSO system. The URL is formmated as:
awbs://clientFederatedIdProvider.com&client_it=myClientId&redirect_uri=myapp://redirect
In Xcode, I've assigned the URL schema myapp to the app. The problem is that the app is unable to open AirWatch and go to the URL requested, it just shows a white screen for a moment (without leaving the app) and returns to the previous screen, as if the URL is tried in the app itself and fails.
Oddly, if I add the awbs schema to the app in Xcode, everything works correctly for some users, but for others, anytime they try to call an awbs:// URL from anywhere on the iPad it gets redirected to my app, as the schema above suggests it should. It looks like it's a coin flip, based on which app (mine or AirWatch) is installed first by Agent and can 'lay claim' to the awbs schema.
I can't see why my app would need that awbs schema to make an outgoing call to AirWatch for some users, and it causes complications with others. Any suggestions?
