Re: Issue with Copy/Paste Restriction in Intune MDM on Android Devices (Clipboard Editor Interaction)
That so far has been the solution we've put forward for now. Last time I asked Microsoft it seems they still are unsure of the issue and have basically put it on android to work out which is frustrating since it seems to be an issue with Intune. If our devices weren't BYOD then this wouldn't be an issue, but since we're adding the app protection and not fully onboarding users devices, it seems there's currently no solution for this.163Views0likes0CommentsRe: Issue with Copy/Paste Restriction in Intune MDM on Android Devices (Clipboard Editor Interaction)
Hey Moombas, Doubled checked that we didn't have it blocked with any other policy. Will try this if we dont already have it, (though think we might of): configure gboard (managed app config) and allow copy/paste there. If not I'll get the config setup and see if that changes it. Thanks for the tip!196Views0likes1CommentIssue with Copy/Paste Restriction in Intune MDM on Android Devices (Clipboard Editor Interaction)
Hi all, I’m currently experiencing an issue while setting up Intune MDM on Android devices related to restricting copy and paste to unmanaged apps. Specifically, the issue occurs when users copy text from the Teams app and try to paste within teams app. Here's what happens: After copying text, a message "Your organisation's data cannot be pasted here" immediately appears in the clipboard hud. The copied data seems blocked from being viewed, as the error message appears even before a paste attempt. Despite this, users can manually paste the copied content by long-pressing or selecting "Paste" from the text box. However, when trying to use the "paste from clipboard" feature, the warning message above is pasted instead of the copied content. We’ve set the Intune policy to allow copy/paste within managed apps, but the clipboard interaction seems to be problematic, especially with Gboard. It appears that Gboard, possibly due to Android 13 and 14’s Clipboard Editor, is treated as an unmanaged app, causing Intune’s data protection policies to block its access to the clipboard in a read-only state. Just to clarify: I want users to be able to copy and paste txt within managed apps only. So the allowed behavior of pasting with long press is fine, but I want to get rid of the block that we're getting. Here’s what we’ve tried: Added various exclusions to the Intune policy, including Gboard, Clipboard Editor, and other related apps (full list below), but the issue persists. Testing different configurations hasn’t led to a final solution, and there seems to be limited documentation specifically addressing this clipboard component in relation to Intune's data policies. We’ve escalated the issue internally but wanted to see if anyone in the community has encountered a similar problem or found a solution. Here’s the list of exclusions we’ve already added to the policy: Clipboard: com.android.clipboard SMS: com.google.android.apps.messaging SMS: com.android.mms SMS: com.samsung.android.messaging Native phone app: com.android.phone Google Play Store: com.android.vending Android system settings: com.android.providers.settings Android system settings: com.android.settings Google Maps: com.google.android.apps.maps Gboard: com.google.android.inputmethod.english Samsung: com.sec.android.inputmethod Gboard: com.google.android.inputmethod.latin Gboard: com.google.android.apps.inputmethod.hindi Gboard: com.google.android.inputmethod.pinyin Gboard: com.google.android.inputmethod.japanese Gboard: com.google.android.inputmethod.korean Gboard: com.google.android.apps.handwriting.ime Gboard: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox Gboard: com.samsung.android.svoiceime Gboard: com.samsung.android.honeyboard Gboard: com.android.inputmethod.latin Teams app: com.microsoft.teams Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
