How to enroll ios device by Apple business manager

Hi All,

 

My ABM application has been approved, and the test device iPad has also been registered with ABM through Apple Configurator. MDM has also been assigned to him, and finally synchronized to intune,
As shown in the picture, but I don't know how to register the iPad on intune and apply the profile. My IOS profile only displays "Ready to enroll",
but when I use the company portal or Microsoft authentication for my iPad, I only apply the default profile, just like before using ABM. The image below still shows "Ready to enroll",
I don't know how to apply the profile ?

  • In the first picture you also have a profile attached to the device? (an enrollment profile) If this is all in place and correctly setup you only have to reset your device, or take it out of the box and after the network setup step you should see the first Company (ABM) screen and you will be guided through the ABM enrolment..

        Ok I see you use the Apple Configurator section (did not notice this before), this is not the best option but should work. It looks like you changed the MDM server in ABM. It should be set to:

         

        Can you please confirm you performed the steps in the Apple Configurator on your macBook, like this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/enrollment/apple-configurator-enroll-ios#create-an-apple-configurator-profile-for-devices

         

        So follow the steps in the above documentation, do not change the MDM server in ABM and it will work most of the time, I must admit this setup does not work 100 percent of the time..

         

        To be sure you only perform these steps if you like to get a device into ABM that is not bought as ABM device through reseller. If this is not what you are trying to and you already have your devices in ABM you should do something else, this setup wont work.

    Hi, I have just setup APM and linked it to Intune.
    Have you clicked on the assign profile option in Enrolment Profile \ devices.
    Click on your device and then from the menu above select Assign Profile.

     

    Hope that helps.
