Home > Apple Intelligence, macOS, Management Profiles > Suppressing Apple Intelligence notifications on macOS Sequoia
As part of Apple’s rollout of Apple Intelligence, there’s a Notification Center notification which may appear on macOS 15.1 and later which prompts you to try using Apple Intelligence.
Shops who want to block use of Apple Intelligence for security reasons may also want to stop these notifications from appearing. This is possible to do once you have the bundle identifier for the notification in question. Thanks to excellent detective work by colleagues in the Mac Admins Slack, the correct bundle identifier for this notification has been identified as the following:
_SYSTEM_CENTER_:com.apple.followup.alert
Once you have the bundle identifier, you can put this into a configuration profile which manages notification settings to block these notifications from appearing. For more details, please see below the jump.
Please see below for an example profile. This profile is also available via the following link:
