Looking for solutions to assist in Bulk Management (Wipe) of Android Enterprise devices
So, first of all, if we speak about (mobile) Android devices, you don't need to plug them in, they just need a data connection to the MDM/EMM like Wifi, Networkadapter or similar.
So in case of Wifi for ex., there would be no physical connection needed.
A bulk wipe can be done triggered from MDM/EMM side if it provides such possibility. I know that you can wipe devices using WS1 but i don't know if you can check multiple devices and then send the relevant command to them.
Maybe someone here with knowledge in WS1 can tell you.
No external app or anything else needed, just the things you already have in hand then.

For ex. we could do this from Soti Mobicontrol (different MDM/EMM) to send such commands to chosen devices in multiple ways but they need to be online and connected to the MDM ofc.
Oh this is an interesting one. There are a few dedicated folks who may have valid solutions to offer here, but I'd probably look at a small companion app that detects when it's docked to your hub, possibly in combination with a geo policy unless your hubs can be programmed to identify themselves uniquely from other docks, and send a wipe command to omnissa via API.
Just to add here, this would only work if the relevant usb (adb) connection is not blocked from MDM side which is required to read out the IMEI or SNR.
Edit: I was looking other way around (from app running from dock side not from the mobile side) so, forget what i wrote.
But i think to do this on android app base you need to do digging on what kind of Information you get out of the connected usb device/dock and need to define for example a unique device/dock identifier (ideall through managed app config) to (maybe locally or via an api) execute the wipe command then.
I think this could be too heavy to be done instead of doing the wipe by filter&search, select the relevant devices and send the wipe command (if they are online).
