We have an issue. We host our website on WIX and they do not have a way to host the JSON file required for BYOD and ABM (Managed Apple IDs)...etc.
Anyone in the same situation that devised a way to host the file elsewhere and have re-directs work?
We either have to move to another host (not likely to happen) or manage BYOD with InTune.

Any limitations with ABM your environment has would be the same between Jamf and Intone. However, Im not sure what JSON you are needing on your WIX hosted website and why.

You could standup an S3 bucket or something similar and point to that but in all the years we’ve had Jamf pro I’ve never needed to do such a thing.

I’m guessing it’s this, good question, when you can’t fiddle with your company foo.com is there a workaround

Hosting the JSON file is required when using managed Apple IDs (Account Driven). WIX services do not allow the ability to host this file in the location required. https://learn.jamf.com/en-US/bundle/technical-articles/page/Prepare_for_Account-Driven_Enrollment_wi...

As to S3 bucket, how is this done? My manager was digging into this but was not having success.

We have not resolved this yet. We were hoping there were some customers that have run into a similar issue. I do not know enough about S3 buckets and re-directs. JAMF support has pretty much washed their hands of it.

sure I read something on GitHub.. and no.. can't find it.. I did find this.. which a supposed workaround / fudge..
https://developers.cloudflare.com/rules/page-rules/how-to/url-forwarding/
and this.. which does not look at all horrifically complicated for something that should be 'a bit more simple'

We are in the same boat on our end. Our website is hosted with Webflow, and they don't support directly hosting the JSON file.
We attempted to create a GitHub repo and enabled GitHub Pages to host the JSON file which successfully passes the test curl command, but our WebFlow support team was unable to redirect from the target .well-known URL to the permalink for the JSON file hosted in our GItHub repo via GitHub Pages. Our WebFlow support team also doesn't work on reverse proxies, so they washed their hands of it.
When I asked Jamf support about workarounds or other customer solutions for this, they said they didn't know of any, and pretty much wished us luck with whatever we were trying :/
AWS is part of our Infra team's tech stack, but I'm not well versed at all with web server hosting... Would the GitHub solution work in the case of our company already having a public site for the domain?
