Sync the enrolled device you're using for work to get the latest updates, requirements, and communications from your organization. Company Portal regularly syncs devices as long as you have a Wi-Fi connection. However, if you ever need to disconnect for an extended period of time, you can manually sync the device when you return to get any updates you missed. Syncing can also help resolve work-related downloads or other processes that are in progress or stalled. If you're experiencing slow or unusual behavior while installing or using a work app, try syncing your device to see if an update or requirement is missing.

This article describes how to start a sync from the:

  • Company Portal app
  • Windows desktop taskbar or Start menu
  • System settings app
