Defender GPO deployment not working

We followed the guide located here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-endpoint/configure-endpoints-gp

 

The GPO is being applied to the test endpoints but they are still showing as "can be onboarded" in Defender.

 

I went through and checked the registry entries that are in the script, and I see that they are present. Task scheduler shows that the task created via the GPO ran successfully as well. However, the devices still aren't onboarded in Defender.

    We finally figured it out. In the documentation, Microsoft uses an administrative share in the example, but we wound up having to create and use a standard network share. As soon as we did so, it work right away.
