I’m fair new to Jamf Pro so forgive my for my beginner questions.

Our Jamf Pro system is partly managed by and IT department above us.

I uploaded our vpptoken and reclaimed (for whatever that means)

Now if I modify an app to be available in the self service store it appears (it did not before uploading the vpp token). Didn’t try to install it yet. But they don’t get automatically installed if i set them to Install automatically/Prompt the users to install. Yet. Maybe I need to wait for the next xyz communication between the macbook and the jamf pro server?

Do you have enough licenses for the apps? If you look at the computer record of one of the computers do you see any error messages regarding the apps inatalling?

I just figured, that our VPP token wasn’t uploaded/transitioned just yet from SimpleMDM now that i’ve done that it started working.

However i noticed one app called “cisco secure client” it says “Content not available to assign to computers” on the 3rd “managed distribution” tab so i can’t check the checkbox (not there)

And also apps started to appear in Jamf Pro app store, that we’ve added in SimpleMDM. That was a pleasant surprise.

Is the Cisco Secure Client app still available in the App Store? If it is, do you have enough licenses for it?
