Can you setup Jamf Connect to use the OIDC SSO configured in Jamf Account?

Hi everyone,

 

I’m currently exploring the possibility of deploying Jamf Connect in our organisation.  I have setup the SSO in Jamf Account to point to our EntraID tenant and it’s working fine to login users in both Jamf Account and Jamf Pro Cloud.

 

All the documentation seems to suggest that I need to configure another app in Entra ID to allow Jamf Connect to authenticate users but since Jamf has introduced the Jamf Account OIDC SSO to try and harmonise things, I’m wondering if I can just point Jamf Connect at that rather than creating a new app.

 

Can this be done or am I misunderstanding how the OIDC SSO connection works in Jamf Account?

 

Thanks,

Kieran

@KieranD79 Hey Kieran - use the OIDC SSO connection just for managing access to your Jamf consoles. Jamf Connect and other end-user workflows (e.g. signing in to Self Service+) would require their own application registrations in your IdP tenant, Entra ID.

JAMF Account OIDC configuration is only to login to the JAMF Console, if you need to have JAMF connect configured yes you need to have new App registration on your IDP.

OK, thanks all.  That’s answered that question for me.  I continue to use a dedicated app in EntraID then. :)

 

Thanks

JAMF Account OIDC is required for Blueprints, JAMF Compliance, and JAMF Connect.  I am currently having issues with JAMF Account OIDC.  The instructions from our account rep states that an application in Entra is required.  Once I enable JAMF OIDC then I am not able to login to the console.
