Is there a way to check if DDM(Declarative Device Management) is enabled on a device?

Hi all, I'm implementing Intune MAM to secure applications on iOS. However, I need my users to be able to save files (e.g. attachments in an email in the Outlook app) to iOS Files. To do so, I'm trying to put Files in exception of my Intune MAM policy and I need to obtain the Files "CFBundleURLSchemes" value from the info.plist file of the Files app. I'm not able to get that information. Are any of you able to get that somehow? Thanks!

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?

Is the possibility of programmatically recovering the enrolled email address associated with an iPad. We are currently working on a project that requires us to retrieve this information for our enrolled devices. Could you please provide guidance or documentation on how we can achieve this programmatically? Specifically, we are interested in any APIs or frameworks that Apple provides for this purpose, as well as any necessary permissions or configurations that need to be in place.

I have created a configuration profile which basically just turns off notifications for Shortcuts app but I am unable to install it on my iPhone as I am getting the following error “This profile can be installed on a supervised device only” can someone please help me with this? Would also appreciate if you have another way to turn off shortcuts notifications permanently since when I turn it off via screen time it keeps turning itself ON every couple of days.

We'd like to determine if there is a configuration declaration that is active on a device as part of a predicate. The current logic (based on the WWDC 22 session) is: SUBQUERY(@status(management.declarations.configurations), $declaration, ($declaration.@key(identifier) == "com.abc.declarationname" AND $declaration.@key(active) == true)).@count == 1 The goal is that if the declaration is active, then a predicate should evaluate to true. This query does not appear to be working. Should we be able to use @status(management.declarations.activations) in a predicate? If so, what are we missing to attempt to determine if the declaration is active? If I search the existing status objects that are sent from the device, it is showing as active in the status channel.

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.

Issue - Safari application not fetched from system_profile command Use case - We are trying to get list of installed applications in the mac. For this we use System_profiler command to fetch the details list. It is working good, but the thing is , It doesnt fetch Safari app as an installed Application. Command used - **/usr/sbin/system_profiler SPApplicationsDataType** Can anyone suggest any other way to fetch the installed applications list from the mac , which includes all the apps (including safari app) and remains effective ?

Hello, I am an iOS developer managing an MDM app. In this app, we are only using the camera restriction feature. Can the MDM status (specifically, the camera state) be changed while the user's screen is locked? We want to communicate with our server in the background and apply changes, but there is no known information about this. I would appreciate your help!

Why is MDM camera restriction designed not to work on the lock screen?

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

In the RequestRequiresNetworkTether property, the definition of “network-tethered” is unclear, and there seems to be a discrepancy between the actual behavior and the description in the documentation. We would like to clarify the definition of the connection state that “network-tethered” means and the specific behavior requirements when the property is set to true. Explanation of the document The description “If true, the device must be network-tethered to run the command. I was not sure whether it refers to “network connection” or “tethered communication” as the Japanese translation. Actual operation verification results The error message was “The device is not tethered. (MDMErrorDomain:12081)”. Error occurs when only carrier communication is used The following connection conditions work normally (as in the case of false) Wifi communication Combination of carrier communication and Wifi communication Tethering communication Combination of carrier communication and tethering communication Tethering connection (both parent and child devices) Inconsistencies Although the document description could be interpreted as a simple network connection requirement, actual operation is limited only to carrier communications alone Error message uses language regarding tethering, but actual tethering connection works fine

VPP API v2 returns 9609 "Unable to find the registered user." when I disassociate assets from an existing user. Repro step: 1. Create user POST https://vpp.itunes.apple.com/mdm/v2/users/create { "users": [ { "clientUserId": "client-1", "managedAppleId": "valid managed apple id" } ] } => user is associated 2. Retire user POST https://vpp.itunes.apple.com/mdm/v2/users/retire { "users": [ { "clientUserId": "client-1" } ] } => user is retired 3. Recreate user with the same clientUserId POST https://vpp.itunes.apple.com/mdm/v2/users/create { "users": [ { "clientUserId": "client-1", "managedAppleId": "valid managed apple id" } ] } => user is associated 4. Associate asset POST https://vpp.itunes.apple.com/mdm/v2/assets/associate { "assets": [ { "adamId": "408709785" } ], "clientUserIds": [ "client-1" ] } => asset associated 5. Disassociate asset POST https://vpp.itunes.apple.com/mdm/v2/assets/disassociate { "assets": [ { "adamId": "408709785" } ], "clientUserIds": [ "client-1" ] } => {"errorNumber":9609,"errorMessage":"Unable to find the registered user."} Notes associate API works fine with the same payload. disassociate work with v1 API.

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>

Hello Developers, We are encountering a consistent Kernel Panic issue on an iPhone device after sending a "Clear Passcode" command via our MDM solution. We're looking for insights or confirmation if others have experienced similar behavior. Device & Environment Details: Device: iPhone13,2 (iPhone 12 Pro) OS Version: iPhone OS 18.3.2 (Build 22D82) (Please note this appears to be a future/beta build identifier) Action Triggering Panic: Sending MDM ClearPasscode command. Roots Installed: 0 (Device is not jailbroken) Incident ID: 4B41C0AE-EE93-4051-BEE4-AB98438C10F0 Panic Log Summary: The kernel panic log clearly indicates the issue originates from the Secure Enclave Processor (SEP). The key panic string is: panic(cpu 3 caller 0xfffffff02357bc1c): SEP Panic: :sks /sks : 0x1000b15fc 0x0003ad60 0x0003ad44 0x100028698 0x10002cae4 0x10002a908 0x10002bc10 0x100045330 [hgggrhlvs] Panic app vers: 1827.80.10 Panic app UUID: 4C066E88-EB93-33C3-BCA7-C5F5474831CC ... Root task vers: AppleSEPOS-2772.80.2 Root task UUID: A39D6C5D-D07D-33EE-85A3-9105A8D93CE2 ... sks /sks 0x329cc/0x326e0/0x1314131413141314 ert/BOOT Use code with caution. The SEP Panic and reference to :sks /sks strongly suggest an issue within the Secure Key Store subsystem of the SEP. The panic occurred on CPU core 3. The kernel backtrace points to the com.apple.driver.AppleSEPManager kernel extension as the immediate caller in the main kernel that initiated the panic process after receiving the signal from the SEP. Analysis/Interpretation: Based on the log, it appears that the MDM ClearPasscode command, which necessarily interacts with the SEP's Secure Key Store via the AppleSEPManager driver, triggered an internal fault or bug within the SEP firmware (AppleSEPOS). This SEP-level panic subsequently caused the main iOS kernel to panic. Questions: Has anyone else encountered similar SEP panics, specifically involving the SKS subsystem, particularly after issuing MDM commands like ClearPasscode on iOS 18.x builds (especially 18.3.2 / 22D82)? Is this a known issue in this specific iOS/SEP firmware version? Are there any suggested workarounds for clearing passcodes via MDM on affected devices/OS versions, or any further diagnostic steps recommended? We appreciate any insights or shared experiences the community might have on this issue. Thank you.

Hello All, I am currently attempting to get application config working with enterprise apps but it seems as though the asset config is not applying at all. While the asset and application install correctly it does not seem that the config is read at all judging from the status message returned. "StatusItems" : { "app" : { "managed" : { "list" : [ { "name" : "apps", "config-state" : { "app-config-state" : { "state" : "unknown" } }, "identifier" : "app.identifier", "version" : "3.2", "short-version" : "3.2.0", "state" : "managed", "declaration-identifier" : "dec-identifier" } ] } } }, "Errors" : [ ] } The asset file being sent down is as follows: <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Config 1</key> <string>Value 1</string> <key>Config 2</key> <string>Value 2</string> <key>Config 3</key> <string>Value 3</string> </dict> </plist> This is the config report being sent back by the device after everything has been fetched: "StatusItems" : { "management" : { "declarations" : { "activations" : [ { "active" : true, "identifier" : "group.activation.payload", "valid" : "valid", "server-token" : "56792E4AE25C3286640B45E6BD265AE97545B2B87F90A6355919FD8B2E3C3AB3" } ], "configurations" : [ { "active" : true, "identifier" : "app.install", "valid" : "valid", "server-token" : "34D7ACECAE16EE9EEAC0630FF2FF85524FFBB5BA3CB18CFB6296FBC860368C85" }, { "active" : true, "identifier" : "ios.policy.subscription.list", "valid" : "valid", "server-token" : "376913E11BE7D26EC745B3B68C6FA94C4FC061B1B736D143EBE0F12FF73ADFF8" } ], "assets" : [ { "active" : true, "identifier" : "app.config.reference", "valid" : "valid", "server-token" : "1CFBE30EB56309005F742D667B80242E6A3CDC08ED228D0BC5F87749C6BBAB77" } ], "management" : [ ] } }, "app" : { "managed" : { "list" : [ { "state" : "downloading", "declaration-identifier" : "app.install", "identifier" : "app.identifier", "name" : "apps", "config-state" : { "app-config-state" : { "state" : "unknown" } } } ] } } }, "Errors" : [ ] } Additional info would be useful, though a sysdiagnosis will be submitted to feedback as well. Config did apply correctly when sending down through Install application command

Hi. I am writing a little MDM application. Despite the basic task (add a password for 'remove profile' button in settings), it seems I am stuck with a problem: When I try to enroll my device with enrollment.mobileconfig file, Apple Configurator app, I receive an error The profile “Enrollment Profile” could not be installed because it is invalid. Make sure the profile is valid and try installing it again. The original architecture of my .mobileconfig contains of two payloads (com.apple.security.scep , com.apple.mdm), and it works correctly. However, when I try to add a third payload of com.apple.profileRemovalPassword , I receive the error stated above. From logs collected on iPhone, here's what was found : Failed to parse profile data. Error: NSError: Desc : The profile “Enrollment Profile” is invalid. Sugg : A profile containing an MDM payload must be removable. US Desc: The profile “Enrollment Profile” is invalid. US Sugg: A profile containing an MDM payload must be removable. Domain : MCProfileErrorDomain Code : 1000 Type : MCFatalError Params : ( "Enrollment Profile" ) ...Underlying error: NSError: Desc : A profile containing an MDM payload must be removable. US Desc: A profile containing an MDM payload must be removable. Domain : MCProfileErrorDomain Code : 1000 Type : MCFatalError Extra info: { isPrimary = 1; } My main dictionary contains HasRemovalPasscode Also, I have tried playing around with PayloadRemovalDisallowed setting it to true and false, however, I keep getting the same error message. There is also a second error produced: Profile MCConfigurationProfile, version 1: Display Name: “Enrollment Profile” Description : “***” Identifier : *** UUID : *** Organization: *** Is Stub : No Locked : Yes Removal passcode present Encrypted : No Trusted : 0 Signed : No Device Type : 0 Payloads: Payload MCSCEPPayload, version 1 Description : “***” Identifier : *** UUID : *** Type : com.apple.security.scep Display name: *** Organization: *** Payload MCMDMPayload, version 1 Description : “***” Identifier : *** UUID : *** Type : com.apple.mdm Organization: *** Payload MCRemovalPasswordPayload, version 1 Identifier : com.examp Can't parse profile: <decode: missing data> The code for com.apple.profileRemovalPassword is taken from apple documentation (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/profileremovalpassword) I have also tried the automatic way - creating it from Apple Configurator, so it is correct in terms of syntax 100%. Several important notes: Creating a fresh new profile with just password removal protection single payload allows to perform a download of the profile If I comment out the whole com.apple.mdm payload block, I will be able to download this profile on iPhone also The com.apple.mdm block is also valid by itself, and works correctly I have tried implementing other types of "dummy" payloads - for example com.apple.dock <dict> <key>PayloadType</key> <string>com.apple.dock</string> <key>PayloadVersion</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>PayloadIdentifier</key> <string>com.example.test.dock</string> <key>PayloadUUID</key> <string>22222222-3333-4444-5555-666666666666</string> <key>PersistentApps</key> <array/> </dict> And everything worked out fine. So my hypothetical conclusion out of these four notes might be in some type of interconnection between mdm and profileRemovalPassword, which isn't really listed anywhere? Or am I missing something ? Thank you in advance.

We are experiencing a lot of problems deploying an enterprise app for in-house use since late January. All our iPads are managed by an MDM solution. It can take 10 or more attempts to successfully deploy the app. The deployment usually fails with the message "ASDErrorDomain error 854" among other messages. The company providing the MDM solution has no idea what causes this message or what it means. I suspect the error message is not generated by the MDM solutiion but rather gets passed through from iOS. After many attempts the installation may succeed suddenly, though, and the apps works as expected, but this may take weeks. I have not done any changes to my development system. 'I am running XCode 15.3 with SDK version 17.4, the iPads are on iOS 18.3

We are trying to develop an app that will be responsible for managing 5000+ managed iPads through Intune MDM. The user flow is to have a device locked to a single app when a user is not logged in, but to make the device available to other apps once a user is authenticated. We already tried UIAccessibility GuidedAccess Mode and autonomous single app mode but those were not sufficient due to our need to be able to toggle this from the background. When the device may be asleep. So another way we could achieve this functionality would be to control all app access under a launching mechanism. That way we could allow one app to be visible in our MDM configuration and try to access our business app through that using deep links. If this were to work, we would have to be able to hide an app and still make it launchable from the manager. Any ideas? Thanks

I am using system_profiler command to check on the installed application list from mac device. **Terminal command to check installed java version - ** But while running /usr/sbin/system_profiler SPApplicationsDataType -xml , I cant able to find Java as an installed application. Is this a known issue or do we have any alternative workaround to fetch the same?
