Daniel Stranathan We want to make sure we understand what you're looking for here—MDM-based configuration for the macOS agent has been supported for a while now, so we may already have something that covers your use case.
Could you clarify what's missing from the current MDM configuration options? Knowing specifically what you're trying to accomplish will help us determine whether this is a gap worth tracking or something we can point you to today.
If we don't hear back from you in a week we'll assume you found a solution and close this one out.
