4646Configuration reaches devices in one of three ways. With the Enterprise Admin Console, Anthropic hosts the configuration and users receive it by signing in to the app. With MDM or a bootstrap server, you typically push a profile to devices with your MDM tooling, and the two differ in what the profile contains.

50| What you deploy to devices | Only the app, which downloads each user's configuration when they sign in with their work account | The full configuration, exported as a `.mobileconfig` or `.reg` profile | A minimal profile containing only the bootstrap keys (`bootstrapUrl`, optionally `bootstrapOidc` or request headers) |
51| Where settings live | In the Enterprise Admin Console, which Anthropic hosts and your administrators edit in a browser | In the profile, identical for every device the profile targets | On an HTTPS endpoint you operate, which returns each user's configuration at sign-in |
52| Per-user values | Permission policies per group of users | Separate profiles per device group | The server keys its response to the signed-in user |
53| Changing settings | Save the change in the console. Running apps pick it up at their next check and ask the user to relaunch | Export and push an updated profile | Change your server's response; devices pick it up at the next fetch, with no profile push |

5555Choose the Enterprise Admin Console when you want to manage the configuration centrally without operating MDM profiles or a server, and your users can sign in to Claude Desktop with a Claude account tied to their work email. Anthropic stores your user list and the settings you save. Prompts still go only to your inference provider, and conversations stay on the device. Contact your Anthropic representative to have an organization provisioned.
