Hello, I am currently attempting to use declarative management to install enterprise application, however I am running into errors. Initially the device was failing to unpac the initial manifest it downloaded. After pulling logs from the device it was revealed that the manifest must include the bundle-version for it to parse as valid. Adding this has allowed for the ipa to be fetched from the server however there is a secondary issue. The application is on the device but is unable to be opened due to the device being unable to validate its integreti. Any additional information would be useful. For completion the working manifest will be pasted below. It should be noted that the manifest below does work when requesting application installs through MDM commands. <***> <items type="array"> <dict> <assets type="array"> <dict> <kind type="string">software-package</kind> <url type="string">https://domain/web/mdm/ios/enterpriseipa/bundle.id</url> </dict> </assets> <key type="dict" name="metadata"> <bundle-identifier type="string">bundle.id</bundle-identifier> <kind type="string">software</kind> <subtitle type="string">app</subtitle> <title type="string">app</title> <bundle-version type="string">x.x.x</bundle-version> </key> </dict> </items> </***> </plist>

Hi,team: I need to distribute an mdm configuration file containing the "ServiceManagementManagedLoginItems" service to a large number of company-supervised computers, where com.apple.servicemanagement only supports macOS 13.0+. However, I cannot effectively distinguish whether the device system where the mdm configuration file needs to be installed is greater than 13. Can I directly install the mdm configuration file on all devices? Will installing the mdm configuration file on devices less than 13 have any impact on the system or other configuration items in mdm? The description link of ServiceManagementManagedLoginItems is: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/servicemanagementmanagedloginitems

Hello, I have a system, which is able to execute bash/zsh scripts on a set of machines. The default behaviour is that the signature of the script is checked on the machine, which is executing it, and in case if it is not signed properly, the system rejects the execution. An own certificate has to be created for signing the scripts, which means that the certificate has to be installed and marked as trusted on the target machines (which are executing the script). I've been using : "/usr/bin/security add-trusted-cert ..." command to install the certificate on the machines as trusted. Since macOS Big Sur, the above command was prompting the local user for admin credentials. To avoid this, Apple suggested to use the following command to temporarily disable and re-enable the confirmation dialog : 1.: /usr/bin/security authorizationdb write com.apple.trust-settings.admin allow 2.: /usr/bin/security authorizationdb write com.apple.trust-settings.admin admin Now with the release of macOS Sequoia, the above command : "/usr/bin/security authorizationdb write com.apple.trust-settings.admin allow" does not work any more. It gives the following output : NO (-60005) I have the following questions : 1.: Could you please suggest an alternative way for IT administrators to install certificates on their machines, without any user confirmation? 2.: Could you please suggest how the same could be achieved using a bash/zsh script? In which context could the above commands : "/usr/bin/security authorizationdb write com.apple.trust-settings.admin allow" and "/usr/bin/security authorizationdb write com.apple.trust-settings.admin admin" still work? Thank you for your help in advance!

I found that "search" endpoint is recently added to api.ent.apple.com : https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/get-catalog-search-results However it seems we cannot find custom apps using this API even with sToken. Is it not suppoted yet? Thank you

We have noticed that if we apply forceDelayedSoftwareUpdates in Restrictions profile, it causes ScheduleOSUpdates to fail or go into an invalid state. For example: On my iOS device, we have set the forceDelayedSoftwareUpdates to 90 days which removed the latest iOS update iOS 18.2 from the Software Updates section on the device. Post this, if I schedule an update for iOS 18.2 using ScheduleOSUpdateCommand, it fails to download. If I schedule the same without forceDelayedSoftwareUpdates, the update works as expected. Please help what could be the reason for this behavior as forceDelayedSoftwareUpdates should not block ScheduleOSUpdates.

We want to set key-value pair (installation_token: xxxxx) into an app installed by MDM. Formerly we could set the key-value using Settings MDM command like this. <dict> <key>Command</key> <dict> <key>RequestType</key> <string>Settings</string> <key>Settings</key> <array> <dict> <key>Configuration</key> <dict> <key>installation_token</key> <string>xxxxxxx</string> </dict> <key>Identifier</key> <string>com.cloudflare.cloudflareoneagent</string> <key>Item</key> <string>ApplicationConfiguration</string> </dict> </array> </dict> We can still use this for the apps installed withInstallApplication MDM command, however we cannot apply this configuration into the app using Declarative Device Management. When we try it, we got an error like this. <dict> <key>CommandUUID</key> <string>.............</string> <key>Settings</key> <array> <dict> <key>ErrorChain</key> <array> <dict> <key>ErrorCode</key> <integer>12008</integer> <key>ErrorDomain</key> <string>MDMErrorDomain</string> <key>LocalizedDescription</key> <string>Could not modify apps managed by Declarative Device Management.</string> <key>USEnglishDescription</key> <string>Could not modify apps managed by Declarative Device Management.</string> </dict> </array> <key>Identifier</key> <string>com.cloudflare.cloudflareoneagent</string> <key>Item</key> <string>ApplicationConfiguration</string> <key>Status</key> <string>Error</string> </dict> </array> How can we work with managed application configuration with DDM?

I have an issue with my MDM setup. The Push notification that installs and updates configuration profile in the device is no longer working. It was working before Apple developer account got expired we renewed our apple developer account and then retried and we got the device enrollment working just fine. Now when we are updating configuration profile and MDM server is supposed to notify the device using push notification, this is the part where its not working. Are the certs faulty now since the account was expired? Would just renewal of the Push cert work? Will I have to setup the certs all over again? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hello, We have implemented support for our app to work with MDM. Basically the app needs to read the custom configuration with UserDefaults.standard.dictionary(forKey: ‘com.apple.configuration.managed’) in order to be functional when in an MDM. The issue is that in the app review process we are told that: "Guideline 2.1.0 - Information Needed We are still unable to access the app's Mobile Device Management (MDM) functionality. Provide a demo MDM profile and corresponding login credentials that we can be used to access the MDM features and functionality." How do we create a demo MDM profile? Our app only needs to be passed configuration information and we have used Apple Configurator to create a profile, we have added information but it still doesn't work. Here is an example of the .mobileconfig file we have generated, but when we install it on our device, the app does not return any value using UserDefaults.standard.dictionary(forKey: ‘com.apple.configuration.managed’). <?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"> <dict> <key>PayloadContent</key> <array> <dict> <key>PayloadDisplayName</key> <string>App Name</string> <key>PayloadIdentifier</key> <string>com.xxx.yyy.TESTUUID</string> <key>PayloadType</key> <string>com.apple.ManagedAppConfiguration</string> <key>PayloadUUID</key> <string>TESTUUID</string> <key>PayloadVersion</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>ManagedAppConfiguration</key> <dict> <key>MyFirstKey</key> <string>value1</string> <key>MySecondKey</key> <string>value2</string> </dict> </dict> </array> <key>PayloadDisplayName</key> <string>Test Profile</string> <key>PayloadIdentifier</key> <string>payloadid.TESTUUID2</string> <key>PayloadType</key> <string>Configuration</string> <key>PayloadUUID</key> <string>TESTUUID2</string> <key>PayloadVersion</key> <integer>1</integer> </dict> </plist> On the other hand, about 3 weeks ago we requested the MDM capability for the app (https://developer.apple.com/contact/request/mdm-capability) but we have not received any response. We are at a bit of a loss.

Howdy, I thought this would be an easy question, but it turns out it's really not! In fact, it flies in the face of how the Apple ecosystem is set up. That said, I still need an answer to be able to inform our customers of what their app update options are. The question: Does app store provisioning ever expire? Based on the very limited information I can find, it either expires in one year, two years, or never. Anecdotal evidence seems to indicate that the answer could be never, but I need to confirm this. The use case: Some of our customers are very old school. They tend to find a technical solution and stick with it. As such, they do not update apps regularly on their field iPads. They generally only update when they are forced to. They use MDM to deploy the app, and would set the MDM not to pull updated apps from the app store when available, essentially keeping the same version of the app in use for as much as 3 years or more. If this were to happen, I need to know if the provisioning for the old version of the app will ever expire if they get it from the app store. I know with an enterprise deployment of .ipa files via MDM, the app provisioning/certificate will expire after 1 or 2 years (can't remember which atm), but I can't find an answer about app store provisioning. Hopefully someone can provide me with an answer on this forum. Thanks in advance, Mapguy

I am creating a prototype with the new Screen Time API introduced by Apple. The issue I am facing is, Applications installed in child device is not showing in parent device with FamilyActivityPicker. It is showing in Child device and apps can be shielded from child's device. Can some one describe, how to list the apps in parent's device. Both Device are running in iOS 15.3. Both falls in same family group Child is under 13 yrs old Screen Time enabled in both device and parent device can see child in Screen Time.

Hi, I have a couple of questions about how to proceed and prepare the implementation for the DeviceLock MDM command for macOS in a secure and proper manner. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/device-lock-command In documentation "PIN" is "(string) The six-character PIN for Find My. This value is available in macOS 10.8 and later." - is this the PIN that is used to unlock the device? Is there any video online that I can see how the process would look like for the end user with locking and unlocking a device? What should be done before sending a DeviceLock command? What should be done to safely test the command without bricking a device. How to unlock a device that was locked with a DeviceLock command? Is there any Unlock command or can the user unlock device with the provided PIN earlier? Thank you for any help!

I'm looking at the Apple official document below and getting the app's information. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/getting-app-and-book-information-legacy However, I couldn't get the custom app's information for a few days ago.

The MDM was installed correctly and other commands are working fine. I have tried to send the InstallProfile with custom configuration to the device, but it was displayed as not signed. How to sign the payload for InstallProfile command and where it should be included in the payload / command?

We have an application which is written in Swift, which activates two network extensions (Content Filter, Transparent Proxy). We want to use MDM deployment for these network system extensions. For Content Filter, we already have Jamf Profile which has Web Content Filter payload and it works fine. Our Transparent Proxy module is a system extension, which is exposing an app proxy provider interface (We are using NETransparentProxyProvider class and in extension’s Info.plist we use com.apple.networkextension.app-proxy key.) We don’t have any remote server setup to forward the traffic, instead we open a connection with a certain localhost:port to redirect the traffic which is received in our transparent proxy. We have another module that listens to the particular localhost:port to process the traffic further. We are unable to find the appropriate payload in any of the Profile Editor applications like Apple Configurator, iMazing Profile Editor and Jamf Pro that correctly describes our setup. As per https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/vpn/transparentproxy documentation, we noticed that we can use the VPN payload with app-proxy as Provider Type for Transparent Proxy. Here are the list of issues encountered with different MDM solutions. **AppleConfigurator: ** We were able to install the profile created via Apple Configurator. However when we install our product (which has the above mentioned system extensions), the Transparent Proxy added by our product fails to map with the installed profile. User has to provide the credentials and follow the steps while installing the extension via the product. Attached the screenshot of "Network-&gt;Filters" screen and the profile for reference. Profile Created using Apple Configurator iMazing Profile Editor: Unable to install the profile created using iMazing Profile Editor. Attached the screenshot of error and the profile for reference: Profile Created Using iMazing Profile Editor Jamf Pro: We were able to install the profile created via Jamf Pro and also while in stalling our product the Transparent Proxy gets mapped with the one which is installed via profile. However after that the network is broken and hence unable to browse anything. Attached the profile for reference. Profile Created using Jamf Pro What should be the correct profile payload to use for our Transparent Proxy?

Hi, I'm glad to hear that the service discovery process is improved on iOS/iPadOS 18.2 mentioned here. https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/deployment/dep4d9e9cd26/1/web/1.0 I tried it on my development MDM server. Set default MDM for iPad to my development MDM server on Apple Business Manager. Call the new API https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/account_driven_enrollment_profile and 200 OK is returned However the service discovery fails with the following error. Invalid well-known response for https://{my email's comain name}/.well-known/com.apple.remotemanagement?user-identifier={my email}&model-family=iPad: <NSHTTPURLResponse: 0x300a9f420> Invalid well-known response for https://axm-servicediscovery.apple.com/mdmBaseURL?user-identifier={my email}&model-family=iPad: <NSHTTPURLResponse: 0x3009047a0> It seems fallback process to https://axm-servicediscovery.apple.com/mdmBaseURL actually works but it returns 404 Not Found error. How can we use this awesome feature? Thank you :)

We are using management properties in DDM to assign configurations and assets to a particular device, and one of those properties should be updated by a business app on the device. For example, if the business application is not launched every 30 days, then a predicate should evaluate to false and the device put into single app mode to force the application to run. If, however, the app is launched any time in the 30 days, then the counter should be reset. Essentially trying to enforce that users in the field cannot work offline for extended periods of time without getting the latest dataset from the company. The single app mode part is very clear and the predicate to assign the configuration based on the date in the management property seems logical. However, the question is: Can a predicate be built upon data that is updated by the custom MDM app? ie: If the app is launched on the device without connectivity, can a property be updated that the DDM predicate system can access that can be used as an input property? such as "last launch time" or "last check-in" of the custom app? Alternately, could the custom MDM app read any of the management properties set via DDM? That way the user would know the value that the DDM configuration for restricting the device.

Managed iOS/iPad devices are struck with no network under below conditions Enrolling a Supervised iOS device Send InstallProfile command with AppLock payload (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/applock) Now when the above managed device loses network connection with MDM server due to unknown network issues - the device is out of contact with MDM server and device is locked. Since such AppLock payload installed devices are placed in remote locations, it becomes difficult for Admins to recover such devices with no network connectivity. The devices have to be brought in from remote location and recover them. Under such conditions, it would be better to allow the end user to change the Network configuration manually to reconnect the device with MDM server. This option can also be allowed only when the device can’t ping MDM server.

It's been two weeks since I submitted the MDM capability request form as our app requires an MDM to activate the DNS Proxy component. There's been zero emails about it, and I can't find anywhere to check the status on it. Does anyone have experience regarding the "MDM capability" request or is anyone from Apple able to provide some insight into what is expected?
