This thread was started before Sierra dropped, so I am reposting just in case something has changed.

Thanks.....

We would like to enforce automatic updating of all App Store apps on Mac OS.

There is a setting in System Preferences -> App Store -> Install app updates (as shown in the attached image), but I am unable to find that setting in the JSS console (Config Profiles, Managed Prefs, etc.)

I was able to configure updates for one app at a time via Mac App Store Apps, but not all apps.

Is this a limitation in JSS or am I missing it?

I have a post on managing those settings. It's available via the link below:

I don't believe that it's manageable (yet) via a profile, which is likely why there isn't a profile management option for it in the JSS.
