Apple's Automated Device Enrollment, also known as zero-touch deployment, immediately enrolls and configures a device when a user turns it on. No user interaction with IT is required. This enrollment method is most commonly used for devices owned by your organization and is the only method that can prevent end users from removing the MDM profile.

Jamf Pro's Global Management settings allow you integrate with Automated Device Enrollment, which establishes communication between Jamf Pro and Apple Business Manager or Apple School Manager. For more information, see Automated Device Enrollment Integration.

When the integration is complete, you can then use a Jamf Pro PreStage enrollment to configure and deploy the Automated Device Enrollment experience to devices. Settings include the following:

  • Supervising and requiring MDM profile installation on devices

  • Adding Enrollment Customization configurations

  • Skipping Setup Assistant screens. Which screens you can skip varies between tvOS and iOS.
