Anyone know what the DeclarationType string values are for the Asset declarations?
UserIdentity asset defines the type as com.apple.asset.useridentity.
There is no such value for UserNameAndPasswordCredentials.
Has anyone been able to install this type of declaration?

Hi Team, The User Enrollment introduced by Apple back was really great I was trying to test out that .As per the implementation details provided by apple for Simple Authentication - User Enrollment Flow.
Below are the steps I followed to implement it.
Step 1) Making a /.well-known/com.apple.remotemanagement url and sending a json as for byod which apple has detected successfully.
Step 2) Apple making a POST request to BaseServer URL of MDM to get enrollment profile ( At this Step as there is not Authorization header I sent a 401 with WWW-Authenticate header with scheme and url as mentioned by apple)
Step 3) Apple has requested With GET to get the html page to show to the user from the url mentioned in WWW-Authenticate header.
Step 4) Here there is a tweak the HTML page I actually shown doesn't contains any form as it is for testing purposes. I Simply had a button which upon clicking sends a POST to my url with empty JSON using axios library where from the server I sent a 308 redirect with Location header as mentioned by apple apple-remotemanagement-user-login://authentication-results?access-token=dXNlci1pZGVudGl0eQ
Where after I expect the ASWebAuthenticationSession to end and apple to start Second Enrollment attempt with acces token as Authorization Bearer token But the Screen showing the HTML page doesn't go away and neither apple started any steps to get the Enrollment profile from MDM server . Am I commiting any mistakes here.Could you please help on going with it.
I am experiencing issues when pushing the "WiFi Lock" profile via MDM or the "Join only Wi-Fi networks installed by a Wi-Fi payload'" Restriction via Apple configurator 2.
I am pushing a WiFi Authentication profile along side it which means that the wifi lock profile is suppose to force the device to only be able to connect to the wifi authentication profile that was pushed to the device via MDM.
However, what end up happening, the device "forgets" or does not recognize the pushed wifi auth profile that it has after device reboot. It ends up not showing any available wifi networks and wont allow the device to connect to wifi.
The only way i can fix it, is if i push the wifi authentication profile to the device again via cellular. It then remembers it and will connect. But as soon as the device reboots and sometimes it does not even need to reboot it will forget it.
What could be going on with this?
Is there a way to check in code if a device is under Mobile Device Management? We want to show the users a different screen in the app if it is under device management. This is primarily for devices under Apple School Manager or something similar
IMAP is again broken... this has happened with many prior iOS betas
We are facing issue SSO from some days its was working fine few days before.
In apple devices, we are facing issue that once user enters the username and password, it is asking again when user logs in.
All things were fine no changes in system only thing, this issue started happening for may be iOS 16 updated.
We have implemented SSO using Microsoft AD.
Things working for all other OS (Windows, Android) except iOS.
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,

Hello Apple Community,
I've been delving into the realm of time-based activation predicates through DDM. In my recent pursuits, I've been experimenting with the device's local time to evaluate a predicate expression and apply activation configurations. Is it possible to achieve this?
Our DDM currently leverages device status items and server management properties to activate predicates. These predicates come to life when the logic becomes true, initiating activations seamlessly. While the Apple Predicate Guide provides a solid foundation, I've encountered some challenges when it comes to time-based expressions. The guide covers basics such as context and numerical-based predicates, but I find myself seeking more clarity on implementing time-based logic effectively.
If any of you have insights, tips, or experiences to share regarding time-based activation predicates expressions in declarative device management, your input would be immensely valuable. I'm particularly interested in understanding practical approaches and gaining a deeper comprehension of the nuances involved.
Thank you in advance.

① We are planning to use self-produced App (published in AppStore) which is installed on our iPad in a closed network.
② We will implement the update of the app automatically.
◆Question
In order to allow the automatic update of the app in AppStore, do we need to allow communication with servers or domains? If it is a case, could you tell us the port number for this connection?
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)
We are an MDM and are trying to migrate to the new App and Book Management APIs.
In this doc mentioned below it asking us to send the public key generated to my Apple contact in a plain-text file. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/app_and_book_management/apps_and_books_for_organizations/generating_developer_tokens?language=objc
I'm not sure who my Apple contact is? I already understand how to generate JWT token for the api.ent.apple.com. I would like to know who can authorize the public key for the organization.
Thank you
Hello! I couldn't reach out to support team because when i'm trying to do this there is infinite login process. I don't understand, why is this broken.
Now i want to change my enroll program to organization type and i have DUNS. Can you help me?
I want to control one iPhone from another iPhone remotely and both of the phones in different places. How to do that ?
Using Web Driver Agent how can we achieve this ?
We need to capture the frames as well every second like screenshots
I tried the new feature of iOS 17.2 com.apple.configuration.app.managed
A configuration and its activation are defined with the data like this.
{
"Identifier": "389459bf-0902-58dd-be0e-11c83c695a8b",
"Type": "com.apple.configuration.app.managed",
"Payload": {
"InstallBehavior": {
"Install": "Required",
"License": {
"VPPType": "Device"
}
},
"BundleID": "com.microsoft.Office.Powerpoint"
},
"ServerToken": "..."
}
After distributing the configuration with DeclarativeDevicement MDM command, an error is notified via status channel app.managed.list.
{
"active": true,
"identifier": "389459bf-0902-58dd-be0e-11c83c695a8b",
"valid": "valid",
"server-token": "21b95e4cb0b616a3ac77a5905ed08756fa36f605ad1a30a9bd347a4a8092532c"
},
"app": {
"managed": {
"list": [
{
"state": "failed",
"declaration-identifier": "389459bf-0902-58dd-be0e-11c83c695a8b",
"identifier": "com.microsoft.Office.Powerpoint",
"name": "Microsoft PowerPoint",
"reasons": [
{
"code": "Error.LicenseNotFound"
}
]
},
After VPP license for the app is assigned, I tried to issue DeclarativeManagement command again.
However iOS device doesn't fetch the configuration because it is not changed. App installation is not retried even after the valid license is assigned.
How can we trigger the retrying installation?
Thank you
I'm encountering a strange issue with PPPC configuration files and app visibility in Security & Privacy for standard users on the latest macOS version.
The Scenario:
I created a PPPC file granting accessibility and screen recording permissions for my app.
I deployed the PPPC file to devices using MDM.
Surprisingly, the app doesn't appear under Security & Privacy > Privacy > Screen Recording or Accessibility for standard users.
However, if I remove the PPPC file, the app instantly shows up in those locations.
What I've Tried:
Double-checked the PPPC file syntax and permissions configuration.
Redeployed the PPPC file and verified successful installation on devices.
Restarted devices and re-registered the MDM profile.
The Impact:
This issue prevents standard users from granting my app the necessary permissions through the standard system interface. They require admin intervention to grant permissions manually, which is inconvenient and not ideal for our workflow.
Seeking Help:
I'm reaching out to the community for any insights or suggestions on resolving this issue. Has anyone encountered a similar problem with PPPC files and standard user permissions? Any advice or potential solutions would be greatly appreciated!
I initiated a change in my account entity type from an individual to an organization about two weeks ago. However, the change doesn’t seem to have taken effect yet. Can anyone provide information on the typical duration for this process? Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks!
Push notification for PWA app is supported on iOS >= 16.4.
I want to restrict app usage using Restriction payload of configuration profile. Formerly we could it by defining a restriction like this. (actually via MDM)
<key>whitelistedAppBundleIDs</key>
<array>
<string>com.apple.webapp</string>
</array>
However on iOS >= 17.0, the notification setting of the PWA app is disappeared!!
Without the restriction payload, or with the restriction payload without whitelistedAppBundleIDs, the notification setting for the PWA app is shown as expected.
Also we discovered that the issue can be avoided by adding com.apple.WebKit.PushBundle.xxxxxx into the restriction payload.
<key>whitelistedAppBundleIDs</key>
<array>
<string>com.apple.webapp</string>
<string>com.apple.WebKit.PushBundle.7880D99FB56F4FF7B5DC019E0EDBCBD0</string>
</array>
com.apple.WebKit.PushBundle.7880D99FB56F4FF7B5DC019E0EDBCBD0 can be found with console log using Apple Configurator.
However it cannot be found via MDM command (ex. InstalledApplicationList). We want to configure and install the restriction payload into multiple devices via MDM.
So how can we know the com.apple.WebKit.PushBundle.xxxxxx via MDM? or how can we enable push notification settings for PWA apps with restriction payload?
Thank you
On WWDC2023 support for Custom OIDC Identity Providers in Apple Business Manager was announced.
Currently I'm not able to configure this, only Azure and Google are available in the settings.
Is this already available? If not, is there a date when it will be available?
Thanks
I am implementing the Mac Assessment Mode feature on an Electron application. I have successfully activated it (verified through the assessmentSessionDidBegin function), but the application hangs on a gray screen. Additionally, I tried adding the Calculator app and VS Code (which is built with Electron) to the whitelist. The Calculator app can display, but VS Code cannot. I suspect that helper processes (Render, GPU, ...) may be blocked by this mode, preventing the application from displaying content. Therefore, I would like to ask if The Mac Assessment Mode supports Electron applications. Thank you for reviewing.
