Jamf pro: Managing enforced iOS updates for passcode protected devices?

As we all know, it's a pain to enforce iOS updates on passcode protected devices. However, according to this talk from WWDC21 ( https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2021/10129/ ) there's an option for the MDM server to flag an update OS command to the device as a required update. According to the talk, the user is given a limited number of "Remind me later" prompts. Then, the user MUST input their passcode to continue and thus install the update. I think this sounds great, as some users defer updates forever.

 

However, I haven't been able to figure out how JAMF has implemented this new functionality, if at all. So my question is if there's a way when sending remote commands to the device to also set the update as required to give the behavior described above? Or is this implicit with one of the update options? Or hasn't this been implemented in JAMF Pro at all yet?
