Hi there, I'm trying to figure out the "sudo jamf install -package" command and I'm having trouble figuring out the syntax. This command can be used for installing packages on the jamf server, not only on the local machine, correct?

@evangardner No, it's for installing packages on the local machine (i.e the one you're running the command on)
If you run:
jamf help install
these are the options for that command. What is the goal you are trying to accomplish? Policies work well for installing .pkgs
jamf help install
Usage: jamf install -package <filename> -path <path to file> -target <volume>
[-fut] [-feu] [-showProgress]
-package The filename of the package that will be installed.
-path The path to the package. This does not include the name of the package.
-target The drive that the package will be installed to.
-fut The Fill User Templates option takes any user data
and populates the files to the user templates so any new
user created on the system will have these files.
-feu Fill Existing Users option takes any user data and
populates the files to every user on the computer that has a
home directory.
-showProgress Displays the progress of the HTTP download and the progress of the installation process.
