    Hello @Alvin Tan

    Based on your response here are both the scenarios:

    1) Managing macOS devices with Endpoint Manager (Intune)

    You can enroll devices in Microsoft Intune and manage them alongside iOS app management (iPhones and macBooks)

    Set up enrollment for macOS devices in Intune

    macOS device settings to allow or restrict features using Intune

    2) You cannot run macOS in Azure VMs. You can only run Linux or Windows machines in Azure.

    Hi there,

    The Azure portal is a web-based console and runs in the browser of all modern desktops and tablet devices. To use the portal, you must have JavaScript enabled on your browser. We recommend not using ad blockers in your browser because they can cause issues with some portal features.

    If you need to manage Azure resources from a mobile device, try the Azure mobile app. It's available for iOS and Android.

    Recommended browsers
    We recommend that you use the most up-to-date browser that's compatible with your operating system. The following browsers are supported:

    Microsoft Edge (latest version)
    Safari (latest version, Mac only)
    Chrome (latest version)
    Firefox (latest version)
