Expiry date for the application pushed through MDM

Hi I am pushing an IPA through MDM. Thought the distribution certificate's expiry date is June 2019, the expiry date visible in the MDM is 1st November 2017. I have the following questions: • On what basis is the expiry date of the application is set? • From where does the MDM pick the expiry date? • Is it possible to set an expiry date manually? • Is there a way to Auto-renew the date to save us the effort of re-creating the build? Thanks

Most likely you are seeing the expiration date for the provisioning profile, not the certificate.


Enterprise Distribution Certificates expire every 3 years.

Enterprise Provisioning Profiles expire every 12 months.


If you don't have any updates to the app before the profile expires, many MDM solutions support pushing out an updated provisioning profile to the devices for the app.
