Has anyone been able to test OS Update on macOS 11 (Intel) ?
Status returned by MDM returns the very un-informative message "InstallFailed":
<key>UpdateResults</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>InstallAction</key>
<string>Error</string>
<key>ProductKey</key>
<string>MSU_UPDATE_20A5374i_patch_11.0</string>
<key>Status</key>
<string>InstallFailed</string>
</dict>
</array>
And installer log on the device shows:

I tried a few things (with or without SoftwareUpdate profile to enable beta, with or without caching server), but without success.
Is there a way to upgrade Beta macOS via MDM ? Or is this limited to Released versions - but then, why would the device report Beta updates via MDM ?

Hi -
Webclip profile documentation has been updated with 2 new attributes : https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/webclip?changes=latest_beta&language=objc
IgnoreManifestScope and TargetApplicationBundleIdentifier.
But the documentation is incomplete (usage, supported platforms). Could you clarify the usage of these attributes ?
Thanks !
