[ipad] Best way to "image" an ipad?

[Zezima]

Hi,

 

So, we have 50+ ipads in school and I need to:

 

1) Wipe them and re-format them

2) Log into Apple ID, Google and email

3) Download a few apps (Free ones)

4) Log into Google Drive App

 

we are using Configurator and Meraki to manage them. I am just wondering if anyone knows if there is a way that I can use configurator to basicly log into all the accounts and download al lthe apps needed then just "re-image" it to the other ipads? This would also mean in the future they can be re-imaged when the kids have messed around with backgrounds/home screens/logins etc..

In short, no. But once they are connected to Meraki you should be able to wipe them and push out the apps and settings within minutes.

The problem I have is how, with Meraki, do you connect an iPad with an Apple ID and not have it prompt for a password before installing pushed apps?
