As a follow-up to my earlier posts on managing Apple Intelligence features on macOS Sequoia 15.1, 15.2 and 15.3, Apple has added new management options for Apple Intelligence as part of the release of macOS Sequoia 15.4. For more details, please see below the jump.

As of macOS 15.4, management options are available for the following Apple Intelligence functionality:

• Genmoji
• Image Playground
• Writing Tools
• Summarizing emails
• Enabling Siri to connect to third party cloud-based intelligence services
• Managing non-anonymous login to third party cloud-based intelligence services
• Allowing third party cloud-based intelligence service workspace IDs
• Notes transcription summaries
• Managing Apple Intelligence reports
• Mail smart replies
• Summarizing Safari content

The relevant key values are below:

It’s important to note that while all of the settings listed above work on macOS Sequoia 15.4, not all work on earlier versions of macOS Sequoia. Here’s the compatibility list:

macOS 15.0 and later:

• allowGenmoji
• allowImagePlayground
• allowWritingTools

macOS 15.1 and later:

• allowMailSummary

macOS 15.2 and later:

• allowExternalIntelligenceIntegrations
• allowExternalIntelligenceIntegrationsSignIn

macOS 15.3 and later:

• allowedExternalIntelligenceWorkspaceIDs
• allowNotesTranscriptionSummary

macOS 15.4 and later:

• allowAppleIntelligenceReport
• allowMailSmartReplies
• allowSafariSummary

Most of these settings can be managed by a configuration profile, where setting a boolean value of false will disable the Apple Intelligence feature in question. The one exception at this point is the one for managing workspace IDs for allowed external intelligence integrations, which uses a string value. An example profile which allows one workspace ID is available below:

If you need to allow the use of multiple workspace IDs, an example profile which allows multiple workspace IDs is available below:

Please see below for example profiles. The example profiles are also available via the following links:

Note: If you’re planning to use the example profiles with Jamf Pro, it will need to be signed before it can be uploaded to Jamf Pro. If you’re not familiar with how to sign profiles, the post linked below is a good guide to how that process works:
