Dev note:

GET /api/v1/fleet/hosts/:id/software should returns software_package object for in-house (.ipa package) app.

"software_package": {
  "name": "MyCustomApp-1.12.ipa",
  "automatic_install_policies": null,
  "version": "1.12",
  "platform": "ios",
  "self_service": false,
  "icon_url": null,
  "last_install": {
    "install_uuid": "e4e31e89-7f43-4f18-8f12-d5dd09ee0d68",
    "installed_at": "2025-08-29T10:06:55.424525Z"
  },
  "last_uninstall": null,
  "package_url": null,
  "categories": null
}

install_uuid is UUID of MDM command that is used to install .ipa

Dev note:

↓ Fields that are not supported by the .ipa package should be null.

Dev note

• When the user uploads an .ipa file type and they specify unsupported fields (install_script, uninstall_script, post_install_script, pre_install_query, categories, self_service, and automatic_install), Fleet will ignore them and won't throw an error or warning.

This means that GitOps will run successfully. The .ipa package is added to Fleet without any of the unsupported fields.
