App protection policy not applying
- Mar 04, 2021
Julian12 Are the apps that you are trying to Protect managed? Meaning are they published through the Intune Company Portal or are you just testing App Store apps and waiting until they apply?
In some cases Signing into the app might be needed for the Protection to trigger as the app is assuming the protection from Your specific MDM - this is more relevant with multi-identity enabled apps.
Also, is there anything special about that test account? What licenses have you enabled to it or is it a DEM account? There is probably a lot of things that might not work quite right for DEM accounts.
Regarding the user-level wipe.. it might have something to do with pending App selective wipe, if you have any pending delete the requests. Docs here on how to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/apps-selective-wipe#delete-a-device-wipe-request.
Hi Alo Press,
I see that error in the same reporting tool:
Currently I set the target devices to managed only, tried for a short time with Both but wasn't working too. Will test this again..
Edit: Not sure if this is a problem but atm my test phone has no SIM card or any mobile number attached to it.

Frickin hell, there was really a selective wipe in place for this account, so obvious^^
I deleted that request and reset my device, hopefully it is working now..
Many thanks for this hint, seems too easy 😕- Julian12Mar 04, 2021Brass ContributorYeah, its working now, thanks for your help 🙂
Have a nice day!
