Is there a way to automatically push iOS updates to a group of devices in Hexnode? We currently update them manually in bulk, but I’m trying to see if we can automate the process for most of our iOS fleet instead of triggering updates each time.

Yes. Hexnode can automate iOS OS updates for eligible devices.
For iOS, the devices must be supervised. Automated update enforcement is commonly used with devices enrolled through Apple Automated Device Enrollment (ADE).
To configure this:
1. Go to Manage > Automations.
2. Click Create Automation.
3. Select iOS as the platform.
4. Choose OS Update as the action.
5. Set the schedule to ASAP if you want the update action to run immediately, or configure a custom schedule.
6. Associate the automation with the required Device Group.
7. Save the automation.
Once configured, Hexnode will trigger the OS update action for supervised iOS devices in the selected group based on the schedule. The devices will be updated to the latest available iOS version supported by Apple for that device.
