MicrosoftHi JL-MDM, thanks for the comment and Happy New Year! Just checked with our engineering team and confirmed there haven’t been any recent changes to how the Company Portal app is deployed during iOS/iPadOS Automated Device Enrollment. For enrollment profiles using Setup Assistant with modern authentication and Install Company Portal = Yes, the Company Portal should continue to install automatically as it has before.
If you're experiencing a different behavior today, that would be unexpected based on what has shipped so far. The best next step would be to gather more details about the scenario and raising a new a support request with our Intune support team via: aka.ms/IntuneSupport so we can take a closer look, as this doesn’t match any recent known or announced changes in the enrollment experience. Once a support case is raised, feel free to send me a message, so we can flag it with the team internally. Thanks!
Hi Max,
Thanks for your reply.
Please review this statement "With JIT Registration, the Company Portal app will no longer be required for Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) registration or compliance. The new feature allows admins to tailor the Company Portal app with the desired customizations to fit their organization’s needs. This change will occur in two phases. The first phase will remove the automatic deployment from new profiles and introduce a new configuration option for existing enrollment profiles to stop automatic deployment. The second phase will remove automatic deployment from existing enrollment profiles. We'll keep you updated on the expected timeline and any additional information for the change in this post." posted here: Upcoming changes to iOS/iPadOS Company Portal app deployment for Setup Assistant with modern auth | Microsoft Community Hub. and ask the team to either remove it if it's false, no longer being implemented or otherwise clarify the situation fully.
I would much rather plans for change to be published in a more consistent way via the admin center, rather than these blog posts which seem to leave open items unaddressed and expect Intune admins to have a sixth sense in what has or hasn't been implemented yet.
