Declarative Device Management for Apple volume purchase program apps
Microsoft Intune now supports Apple Declarative Device Management (DDM) for required volume purchase program (VPP) apps on devices running iOS/iPadOS 17.2 and later and macOS 26 and later. By changing the management type to DDM when you upload a new VPP token, you can deploy and configure apps using Apple's policy-based model, which improves delivery efficiency, provides real-time app status, and adds new per-app settings such as automatic app updates.

Applies to:

iOS/iPadOS
macOS

 

 

Has anyone managed to do this yet?  Seems like editing an existing VPP token isn't supported (greyed out), and creating a new DDM-based VPP token with the same Apple VPP email address leads a "Duplicate" error.  Deleting the original MDM-based VPP makes it sound like all apps linked to that VPP will be removed from devices? Obviously don't want that but don't trust that pushing out the DDM-based token straight after will stop that from happening.
