SkieCan I run a compliance check whenever I want?
Yes. You can start a compliance run on demand rather than waiting for the next scheduled one. Each device reads its protections back from Android and reports an updated compliance score. Use it after a policy change, before an exam or an audit, or when a figure in Insights looks wrong.
Compliance in Skie is measured, not assumed. After every apply, a device reads each protection back from Android and reports a score. That happens automatically, but there are times you do not want to wait for the next report.
A compliance run on demand asks devices to check themselves now. It makes sense after you change a policy and want to know how many devices have the new rules properly in place. It makes sense the morning of an exam, so that you know the room is in order before students arrive. It makes sense before a review with trustees or management, so the figures are current. And it makes sense when something in Insights looks off and you want to rule out stale data.
Results appear in the usual places: the device's own score, the average compliance and fully compliant figures, and the breach centre for devices missing a protection. Devices that are offline cannot answer, so they will not update until they sync. The last-seen time tells you which scores are fresh.
A run only reads; it does not change a device. If a protection is found off, the self-heal and the normal sync deal with it, and some changes, like the reset-all-settings undo, are reapplied within seconds. For a printable compliance audit report, note that this is not available yet, though scores and history can be seen on the dashboard.
Practical tip: run it for one group after a change, wait for the figure to settle, then judge. Running it across the whole organisation in the middle of a school day is rarely needed.
