Hi all
Im an IT sysadmin trying to lay the ground work for our Apps team to distribute our first internal/custom app via our MDM to our internal/private devices.
I have been using DEP/ABM/VPP for a long time, but I have never distributed an in-house/custom app before. This is new territory. My current MDM is MS Intune. Our plan is to leverage VPP to do this. The app will be a private enterprise app that will only be distributed to a select group of managed iPads. It will not be a commercial public product.
How do I link my dev's Apple ID account (used in Xcode/App Store Connect etc) with my VPP account, so he can upload the compiled app to Apple's Cloud and so that I can in-turn see it in VPP from my MDM so I can scope/deploy it to my iOS device targets?
I'm missing how to "glue" all the Apple ID accounts together so our development/distribution workflows can talk to each other and work together.
Thanks

I have connected my MDM to my ABM/VPP account. I can see my purchased apps from Intune.
I have created a dedicated Apple ID for the devs to use in Xcode. This is a separate account from the ID I use for ABM/DEP/ABM. They have tested it and it works (certs etc working when side-loading app for testing from Xcode).
I have enabled 'Custom Apps' in ABM/DEP. This is a manual step required to see/distribute custom apps.
