We currently have a Developer Account registered as an organisation and publish our app to App Store. One of our customers want our App to be part of their MDM, so that they can distribute it to their employees without App Store. Questions: What are the steps to make our App available to Client's MDM solutions like Microsoft Intune ? Will this be achieved by having Apple Developer Program (Account) or any other steps are involved ? Will the solution be applicable to multiple Clients using their own different MDM solutions ?

When we specified a "Unlisted app" by InstallApplication(MDM command), the response state is NeedsRedemption.

Is there a way to install "Unlisted app" without using a redemption code?

Hi, I'm trying to confirm if there is an API that can be used to interrogate ABM for device info? It holds our enterprise devices and so want to regularly extract a list of all devices along with associated information, and import these into a corporate system. It's unclear from the documentation if this can be done. This is the closest I can find but implies it must be done from within another (developed) app...? TIA.

I opened my account as a personal account. Then I decided to switch to the company account without publishing anything. I sent all the application documents. He also stated that he wanted to talk by phone. However, the problem is that we do not support your language during the meeting, so you inform yourself to hire a translator. Ok I did this too! While my translator is talking to Apple customer service, he says we need to talk to the account owner again, okay but he doesn't know my language to talk to me, and he wants to talk to me? So how will this happen? I paid $200 to my translator..

Hi everyone, We have developed an application for a large company and are distributing it using a business account. We have codes that we give to users. The problem is that we released an update for the same app, but users aren't receiving the update automatically as it should be. It's not working. So, we are giving new codes to users as if they are installing a fresh version. We have contacted Apple, but we haven't received any answers (the suppport its a nightmare mostly people just saying they dont have acess to our ticket case) Has anyone else experienced this problem? And does anyone have a solution for this? Thanks.

We are creating our own server for MDM, we followed apple suggested approach with following link [https://it-training.apple.com/tutorials/deployment/dm055] After uploading .pem file in ABM portal, new server token is generating but my question is where we need keep that server token(.P7M) in our servers...is there any specific path we have...if we gone through apple documents they are suggesting to follow vendor documentation but in my case we did't take any third party server's...so we don't have any vendor document. Can you please help me to achieve this scenario.

Are the codes generated by the business portal always limited to the country in which the DUMS code is registered? I have clients who have only one office and therefore can request only one DUMS code but have employees in various countries. How can I generate codes, from the business portal, valid for all countries? Has it become possible to do this? What alternatives can I evaluate for distributing a private app?

Hi, I would like to add custom app inside ABM, but i can only upload pkg. which is not enough for what i need. Installation has some flags for install, like: #sudo curl -so wazuh-agent.pkg https://packages.wazuh.com/4.x/macos/wazuh-agent-4.5.3-1.arm64.pkg && sudo echo "WAZUH_MANAGER='wazuh.domain.com'" > /tmp/wazuh_envs && installer -pkg ./wazuh-agent.pkg -target / #sudo /Library/Ossec/bin/wazuh-control start How to make this work? thank you

How to Re-sign a ipa file with our apple account and install on physical device for testing , as apps like BrowserStack does, Thanks.

Having trouble in signing in to iCloud when a managed supervised iPhone is restricted with few apps using “allowListedAppBundleIDs” restrictions key. Only iPhone has this trouble, this issue is not reproducible in iPad. Even after entering the Apple ID and password, the account seems to be not logged in. Have attached screenshots for reference. Tested device iOS Version : 17.1 Kindly explain this behaviour. Feedback ID : #FB13318247 - Sysdiagnose logs attached here.

Hello! We already have a public app on the AppStore. And we are trying to create another app to distribute to organizations privately. Now, we did some digging and have some queries about the whole process which are as follows: What type of account do we need as the developer team, meaning which programs we need to enroll to and what type of account does our customer organization need to use the app, privately? We do not have a hundred or more employees which is an eligibility criterion for enrollment in the Enterprise Program. How can we proceed to distribute apps to organizations privately with out situation? Do the customer organizations need Enterprise account for each app we publish? Thanks!

Hello, We are implementing Apple Business Manager in our organization. Previously, we had personal Apple accounts with our domain, and when synchronizing our Apple Business Manager account with Azure AD, we identified several conflicting accounts. The system suggested notifying users to switch from their personal accounts. Is there a way to transfer these accounts to Apple Business Manager without the need for a switch? If not, what are the recommendations for our scenario? We appreciate the assistance!

I'm about to start a new company and planning to create a corporate developer account. I know AppStore automatically displays the company's legal name as the seller name like ABC LLC, XYZ Corportation, etc. What I wonder is if it is possible to display only the company name by omitting the entity type like "ABC" or "XYZ". Here an example: https://ibb.co/ZHGb1dp I don't if it is something that I should do during account creation or requesting a DUNS number.

Hi, My app is free-to-download but with an in-app purchase to unlock all the features for example. I use Intune/VPP program and ABM for deploy it to all my users. Can i manage in-app purchare also with Intune/VPP ? Thanks, Benoit

After assigning VPP application license and installing the app in device, I revoked the license while it was still installed. However, I was able to use the app even after 30 days. I think this app is not available in ASM(Apple School Manager) specification. Is this specification applied in ABM(Apple Business Manager)? I found this discription in ASM, but I couldn't find it in ABM. https://www.apple.com/au/education/docs/VPP_Education_Guide_EN_Oct13.pdf “When apps you’ve assigned are no longer needed by a user, you can revoke and reassign them to different users. The user gets a 30-day grace period to continue to use the app, save data, or buy a personal copy. ”

Greetings, As our company grows, we created an Apple Business Manager account to better manage company devices and staff iCloud accounts. Business Manager detected there are pre-existing Apple IDs using our domain and offers to reclaim their usernames. Among those: our developer accounts which are used to manage and publish our apps. Business Manager says that reclaiming the usernames will invite the users to pick a new username. My questions, to anyone having experience or knowledge on the matter: Is there any chance that we find ourselves locked out of our Developer Account? Is there any recommendation against reclaiming the developer account addresses? Thank you in advance for any insights and suggestions. (Sadly, Business Manager does not allow picking which usernames to reclaim individually. It is an all or nothing kind of situation. It does not even list the usernames, merely the total count of them)

We are working with MDM service using VPP API, and trying to migrate Legacy APIs to new App and Book Management APIs. This document says Send the public key you generate to your Apple contact in a plain-text file. Do not share the private key. Also provide a brief description of your use case and product. I generated a key-pair and sent the public key to Apple Developer Program support, however they didn't know how to handle it. What means "your Apple contact" here? I already understand how to generate JWT token for the api.ent.apple.com. I want to know who authorize the public key for the organization. Thank you,

I currently have four apps available for the general public on the App Store. However, our company is now looking to publish applications specifically for our employees. To achieve this, we need to create a new Business Manager account with Apple. Alternatively, if we already have an enterprise account, we would like to confirm whether the Business Manager feature is available within the same account.

Does any Apple API support the Location management for the business? I am interested in if I am able to integrate an Apple business into my application. The first thing I care about is business location management (I would like to create/edit the location via an API call)
