Steps to Enrolling macOS Devices in Intune

The procedure to enroll macOS in Intune includes a series of steps that needs to be followed. After the successful enrollment of macOS, you can apply policies and configuration profile from Intune Portal.

The following high-level steps are involved in enrolling macOS devices into Intune.


  1. Check the prerequisites and ensure you are using supported macOS devices for enrollment.
  2. Apple MDM Push certificate configuration: Involves downloading the Intune certificate signing request and creating a new push certificate. Later, upload this push certificate in Intune portal.
  3. Install the Company Portal app on an macOS device and authenticate.
  4. Set up macOS devices to access your company resources.
  5. Manage macOS devices from Intune Portal.
  6. Note: If you have already created the Apple MDM push certificate during the enrollment of iOS devices in Intune, you can proceed with the next steps.


Step 1: Set up Apple MDM Push Certificate


An Apple MDM Push certificate is required to manage macOS devices in Microsoft Intune. You can configure Apple MDM push certificate with following steps:


  • Sign in to Microsoft Intune Admin Center.
  • Navigate to Devices > Enroll Devices > Apple Enrollment and click on Apple MDM Push Certificate.


On the Configure MDM Push Certificate window, select I agree to give Microsoft permission to send data to Apple. This is a mandatory step.


Step 2: Download the Intune Certificate Signing request

Shortly, the IntuneCSR.csr file will be downloaded and saved to the default location on your computer. We will need this file to request a trust relationship certificate from the Apple Push Certificates Portal.


Step 3. Create an Apple MDM Push Certificate


On the Configure MDM Push Certificate window, click Create your MDM push certificate. This is required to enroll macOS in Intune. A new link opens in your default browser and takes you to the Apple Push Certificates Portal. You must sign in with your company email address Apple ID, and then click Create a Certificate.
