The majority of our user base is non-admin. I have tried multiple methods where I am trying it to bypass admin authorization and make it available in the self-service where users themselves can update the OS.
Has anyone been able to accomplish this, and if so, can someone provide a script and/or process of what had to implement to accomplish this?

This does in fact work as I have the Policy scoped out to our staff to upgrade when available. @tegus232

I unboxed and 11.2.3 M1 Mac built it using DEP enrolment then got a prompt from our upgrade script, which pops open the system preferences update panel and asks the user to hit restart/upgrade now, entering the standard user p/w this prompt is set to every 60s (once they have been ignoring it for a while!!!)
