Setting up a managed Google Play account

Before we configure any Android policies or settings, we need to attach Intune to a managed Google Play account. We will then use this for enrolling devices as well as deploying applications.

You do not need an existing Google account for this, as we can set it up during the process (ideally an Android Enterprise account). It is also worth using a shared/generic account rather than one linked to a particular member of staff.
