- J-AbelCopper ContributorI was wondering, after the initial setup of platform SSO, when the first user setup is completed and can now login using their Entra login credentials, how does this work if the device is shared between two users, will the second user have to do something similar or will they just be able to login with their Entra credentials following the initial setup.

Requiring enrollment is a significant problem for organizations like universities that might have large numbers of collaborators whose devices might be managed by their organization already.

No, as Arnab shared, the way macOS is open, don't let us do it easily ..
- gilburnsCopper ContributorWhen will we see "Available" app assignment for PKG and DMG type installations? (Like are now available for LOB apps)
- mcnahum
Microsoft
Working on it ... give us few more months to have it
- tylerblankCopper ContributorWill there be a command line interface to invoke the initial Entra ID Platform SSO sign in? Would be helpful to prompt end users to sign in especially when dealing with large enterprises of 10,000+ users.

Unfortunately there is not ... we will love to have one too.. but the ask is for Apple
- SujeevPCopper ContributorDo we have any plans for Admin to allow configure/customize their own Device Ownership (Corporate & Personal) as per the Organization ?
- benjamin_flamm
Microsoft
No immediate plans that I'm aware of but we're definitely interested to hear what you'd like to configure.
- Emir_OCopper ContributorCan we expect LAPS to work on MacOS in the near future?
- James_Yao
Microsoft
Near future? Yes, we are looking to integrate LAPS password support with the second release of local account management. There is no timeframe at the moment, but we are working to get a private preview out first.
- CyberscottOccasional ReaderTo what extent can we enforce the use of external security keys, such as YubiKeys, for sign-ins on Mac devices? Will a password be required on reboot of the MacOS device?
- Emir_OCopper ContributorDoes Microsoft plan to create some Intune/Endpoint cert for admins?
