User Enrolment MDM information
Payload settings for User Enrolment can be used on various operating systems, as well as by users who bring their own devices into their organisation. In addition, on iPhone and iPad devices owned by users in a mobile device management (MDM) solution, you can set certain restrictions. Finally, with User Enrolment, you can also query an MDM solution’s information — for example, a list of installed profiles and the status of Managed Apps on the device (except for user-installed apps from the App Store).
MDM payloads for User Enrolment
Payloads can be used on various operating systems and with users who bring their own devices into their organisation. Payload information for User Enrolment is detailed in the table below, which contains the following columns. Before you review the table below, understand what each column contains.
Supported payload name and identifiers: This column notes name of the payload and the identifiers. If you’re using a third-party mobile device management (MDM) solution, the payload name may be different, but the identifiers should be the same.
Supported operating systems and channels: This column notes the supported operating system and specifies whether the payload can be used for a device configuration profile or a user configuration profile. Because Shared iPad and Mac can have more than one user, a payload can be applied to the device channel (all users) or the user channel (specific users).
Duplicates allowed: This column notes whether one specified payload (False) or more than one specified payload (True) can be delivered to a user or device. For example, you can add more than one Subscribed Calendars payload to a single configuration profile. This allows you to subscribe the user to, in this case, more than one calendar.
Note: In iOS and iPadOS, if payloads have the same account description (or display name), they’re treated as exclusive payloads.
Note: Not all payloads and their respective settings are available in all MDM solutions. To learn which MDM payloads are available for your devices, consult your MDM vendor’s documentation.

MDM restrictions for User Enrolment
You can set certain restrictions on iPhone and iPad devices owned by users enrolled in a mobile device management (MDM) solution. For a complete list of restrictions that are available no matter what kind of enrolment, see MDM restrictions for iPhone and iPad devices.
