Usage

DEP profiles

DEP profiles are used to transmit a configuration for the setup process to devices during initial commissioning or a factory reset.

Setting for:

  • Setup steps are predefined or skipped.
  • Determination of whether multi-user devices (shared iPads) are involved.
  • Determination of the device management (managed/unmanaged)



Prerequisite

  • They must be devices specifically dedicated to Apple's DEP.
    These devices can only be purchased directly from Apple or a DEP registered reseller .
    • The serial number of the devices will then be stored at Apple for DEP.
    • The devices can be shipped directly to the device user.
    • When initialising the device (initial start-up or factory reset), the MDM information and the configuration are loaded automatically.
  • Devices that are not factory-set for Apple's DEP must first be added once to the Apple Business Manager or Apple School Manager with the help of the Apple Configurator. After being assigned to a DEP profile, these devices will then also receive the DEP profile during a reset.
  • Registration at Apple Business Manager
    or at Apple School Manager
    This in turn requires a DUNS number. Granting and activation can take several days.

DEP profiles can not be changed

Apple does not provide any modification of DEP profiles once they have been saved.
If necessary, a new DEP profile must be created.

DEP profiles can now also be deleted
Apple itself still does not provide the deletion of DEP profiles. DEP profiles marked as deleted are therefore hidden in our portal.
