# Await Final Configuration

"Await Final Configuration" is an Apple Device Management state that holds a Mac at the Setup Assistant until required policies are applied, ensuring devices reach the user only once they are secure and compliant. This section explains what the state does and how to configure it with Intune. It is aimed at administrators who want to guarantee a fully configured device before handing it to the end user.

Read the overview first, then follow the configuration steps and review the insights.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.intunemacadmins.com/await-final-configuration/await-final-configuration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
