This new action allows you to control the Remote Management status on a Mac and turns on (or turns off) Remote Management with Observe and Control permissions enabled for all users. /devices/{device_id}/action/remotedesktop
In addition, Device details gets a new section added called security_information
where you can see the remote_desktop_enabled
status. "security_information": { "remote_desktop_enabled": true }
As of macOS 12.1, Remote Management Screen Sharing can no longer be enabled via the kickstart command. Refer to the following Apple Support article. This command enables the following capabilities on the device:
