Morning,

Despite my best efforts i haven’t found a solution online so my question is, can i deploy an automator workflow i’ve created via Jamf Pro as some sort of policy of which i can then distribute to selected machines?

Thanks

I may not be understanding your question, but wouldn’t you scope the policy only to the machines you want it to run on?

That’s exactly what i want to do but i can’t find any info on how to create a policy in the first place.

Hi ​@Giannini  ,

I created an Automator workflow by going to New > Application > Add Workflow,
so it can be saved as a .app file.

After converting it into an app, I then built a .pkg using Composer
so it can be pushed to users via Jamf.

If you want it to run at a specific time, you can add a LaunchDaemon.

Brilliant, just created a policy and it worked. Thank you ​@agungsujiwo
