We are reading from an Apple API - https://gdmf.apple.com/v2/pmv that we got from: https://developer.apple.com/business/documentation/MDM-Protocol-Reference.pdf With rapid security updates coming in, We can see the 16.4.1 (a) update out via Settings > Software Update. It appears the Apple’s API response has recently been updated with an additional parameter called “ProductVersionExtra” as shown below. Can someone from Apple please validate that these changes are reliable so we can update the JSON parsing logic at our end?

As per the Apple API: https://gdmf.apple.com/v2/pmv The latest update for iPhone SE (1st gen) which corresponds to iPhone8,4 is 16.0.2 as per date 28th September but as per support apple documentation: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/iphone/iphbb4af1b07/15.0/ios/15.0 iOS 16 is not available for it. Is the https://gdmf.apple.com/v2/pmv showing inaccurate model to latest iOS updates? Can someone please look and correct this?

As per this link: "During development, the only way to get accurate download and installation sizes for your app is to create an app size report on your Mac. However, if your app is available through the App Store or the TestFlight app, App Store Connect provides the most accurate size information" But the app sizes generated by app size report on mac, app store (app size) and app store connect, do not match. In the below screenshots, the app size via app store and app store connect do NOT match, for each version, we expected the app size via app store to match the app store connect uncompressed size, but that's not the case, app size via app store remained same in both versions whereas app store connect uncompressed size went from ~40 to ~80 MB. Same discrepancy was observed with the app size report generated on mac. Can you pls help us understand why this discrepancy exists and what should be the ultimate source of truth when wanting to look at the IPA size?

Hi, We are reading from an Apple API - https://gdmf.apple.com/v2/pmv that we got from: https://developer.apple.com/business/documentation/MDM-Protocol-Reference.pdf. The API recently released a new entry: {"ProductVersion":"14.8","PostingDate":"2021-10-14"... despite having an entry for {"ProductVersion":"15.0.2","PostingDate":"2021-10-11" The documentation says: "The other list, PublicAssetSets contains the latest releases available to the general public". So, why is there an entry for a mathematically smaller version on a later date? Regarding the API, the leaf cert has gotten changed prior to it's expiration date a few times, is there any way we can find out in advance when this will happen so we can be prepared and take measures? Thank you!

As per https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204204: "Some software updates aren't available wirelessly. VPN or proxy connections might prevent your device from contacting the update servers." Sometimes the iOS 15 update is getting stuck due to the VPN in our app. Is this expected? Is there any other workaround solution than to switch off the VPN when iOS update is happening?
