MD-102 Manage applications Practice Question
An organization uses Microsoft Intune to manage iOS devices. They need to deploy an internal line-of-business (LOB) app that is signed with an enterprise certificate. The app must be available to users who are members of a dynamic Microsoft Entra ID group. Which deployment method should you use?
⚠ Common exam trap
A common mix-up: candidates assume 'Required' assignments work with dynamic groups, but Intune only supports dynamic groups for 'Available' assignments, not for required installations, which is a key distinction tested in the MD-102 exam.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Assign the LOB app as 'Available' to the dynamic group
Deploying an internal LOB app signed with an enterprise certificate as 'Available' to a dynamic Microsoft Entra ID group allows users to install the app on demand from the Company Portal, while still targeting the group dynamically. This method supports enterprise-signed apps without requiring a VPP token, and 'Available' assignments are the only way to make the app visible in the Company Portal for optional installation by dynamic group members.
