We have a BYOD program and are trialing JSS. We have successfully set us JSS to push apps silently to users.

Is it possible to have students use self-service to install device-based apps without being prompted for Apple ID login?

    Sure, I don't see why not. Just enable VPP licensing in app preferences, and scope it to devices as available in self service.

    Yes. We are using this exact setup at a K8 private school.

    I have the same question. Tried installing the "public" version of Self Service using the VPP and it does install but just shows an error that it needs to be installed by our organization. This makes sense as how would it know which JSS server to associate with? @weldon how are you handling this?

    Must be deployed as a managed app with app configuration.
