  • For more information on how to generate the <EMM_API_TOKEN>, see Generating the EMM API Token.
  • Define the path to the JSON file, which includes the required properties to inactivate a policy as the <JSON_PAYLOAD> value. For more information, see the Sample JSON Definition.
  • By default, <EMM_HOST> is localhost. However, if you are using a public IP, the respective IP address or domain needs to be specified.
