Show answer & explanationAnswer & explanation
Correct answer: B. Line-of-business app (iOS)
For in-house developed iOS applications packaged as .ipa files, the 'Line-of-business app (iOS)' type in Intune is the correct choice. This allows for direct upload and deployment of custom enterprise apps.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. This option is for Android Enterprise devices, not iOS devices.
- C. This is for deploying applications available in the Apple App Store.
- D. This creates a shortcut to a website, not an application installation.
Intune LOB App (iOS)
A Microsoft Intune application type used to deploy custom, in-house developed iOS applications packaged as .ipa files directly to managed iOS/iPadOS devices.
- Requires the .ipa file to be uploaded to Intune.
- Used for apps not available in the public Apple App Store.
- Deployment is managed directly by Intune, bypassing the App Store.
