Correct answer & explanation
✓
Add as a macOS line-of-business app.
The recommended method to deploy a .pkg app to macOS devices managed by Microsoft Intune is to add it as a macOS line-of-business (LOB) app. This app type is specifically designed for deploying macOS installer packages (.pkg) and requires the file to be uploaded directly to Intune, which then pushes the installation to enrolled devices using the Intune management agent for macOS.
