End User Prompt: Approve your MDM Profile

Apple requires interactive end user approval of MDM enrollment profiles to unlock all of the capabilities and payloads available with MDM. User approved MDM is required for a number of key MDM management tasks. These include some of the most powerful features of the MDM protocol including configurations for privacy preferences, including screen recording, and kernel extension safelisting. 

User approved MDM payloads are only accepted by devices that have user approved MDM enrollment profiles. Learn more about user-approved MDM payloads.

In macOS 11+ devices that have user approved MDM payloads have the same management capabilities of devices that have enrolled through automated device enrollment and these devices are considered supervised.
