Steps to follow

- From the dropdown, choose "xml"
- The customizable options will be displayed
- Edit your preferences
- Click on Download Plist
- Open the Plist
- Copy and paste all of the content into the App Configuration section of SPIN Safe Browser in your Mobile Device Management.
Jamf School users: you can simply copy the whole contents of the plist file and it will probably parse the code.
Jamf Pro users: you will need to remove the following top three lines before pasting and replace it with <plist>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
