So recently Intune add support for controlling safari web extension enablement using the new ddm configuration added in Macos 15, but unfortunately I can't make it work no matter what I try.
On the destination machine I see the that a user declaration for safari extension has been created, but there is not details on which extension they applied and it seems faulty (See attachment)
I have 2 questions:
Has anyone managed to make it work?
Is there a way to test this declaration like I can do with Mobile config by manually load it to the machine?
Thank you.

Hey, Im trying to utilize the new DDM features introduce in Safari 18 & macOS 15 and enabling extension using my MDM (Intune in my case).
For some reason, it doesn't seems to work on my mac machine running macOS 15 beta.
Intune support claims that everything is configured as it should on their end, and there is a problem with device or configuration.
I used Apple documentation and the configuration YAML in apple device management repo So I don't really sure what I am missing.
Has someone managed to make it work using MDM (intune, jamf, etc')? And if so can he shared the configuration?
Thanks.
Hey,
I am developing Safari Web Extension and trying to communicate with the swift handler (SafariWebExtensionHandler) using runtime.sendNativeMessage api (as describe here - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/safari_web_extensions/messaging_between_the_app_and_javascript_in_a_safari_web_extension). I'm getting the following error when calling it -
calling runtime.sendNativeMessage(): Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "Couldn’t communicate with a helper application."
I have no Idea what is missing and couldn't find any meaningful error message anywhere. I do have nativeMessaging permission in my manifest.json. Assist will be appreciated.
