question. If we currently have 100 iPad bought on amazon how can we use DEP on these? Do we need use Apple Configurator to enroll?
If I select to Authenticate with Company Portal instead of Apple Setup Assistant, does that mean any setting I select in the “Setup Assistant customization” section will not apply? Thank you.
No. Only That you need to use the Company Portal to login after the Apple Setup Assistant
