We have macOS devices enrolled without user affinity. Is there a way to deploy apps as available in Company Portal rather than them being required? if not is this in development at all?

Loving the sessions, some great questions/answers that have been really helpful. Thanks Folks.

    Hi Ali11CH​ - Confirmed with my team that since your macOS is userless, Company Portal is not required, that also leads to Available Apps not available because their extended actions need to be taken via Company Portal (such as unintall, re-install, view app status etc.) There's no plan to support it anytime soon, but I'd love to learn the specific reasons why available apps is needed in your case. And what scenarios are userless devices used. Sorry about the confusion I caused. Thank you
