I'm curious to know who else has encountered this open issue, and what they you have found to be an acceptable workaround in the mean time?



PI-005851: Sharing Services Restrictions do not save when Automatically enable new sharing services is unchecked
Workaround: Check the "Automatically enable new sharing services" checkbox

This could cause a huge problem for government defense organizations trying to prevent data exfiltration. Where is the QA on this product? More of the same from JAMF.


I have seen the same thing, is this a bug?


@surajitbapan Product Issue (PI) = bug


Also encountered this issue, and have found no acceptable workaround.


@seanmcelroy Take a look at ProfileCreator. You can use to to configure an Extensions payload with the Sharing Extensions you want enabled.


This is still a problem in 10.15.1. This has gone on way too long.


@MrP If you'd like to share your frustration: Let's have a Snow Leopard release cycle (or two) for Jamf Pro


This is still a problem in 10.18



For example, the bundle ID for Reminders changed to com.apple.reminders.sharingextension but the Restrictions payload for the configuration profile supports the old bundle ID for Reminders which is com.apple.reminders.RemindersShareExtension. The only way to allow Reminders as part of the Share Menu is to check Automatically enable new sharing services which is not something we want to do.


Confirmed still an open issue in JP 10.19.0. That's great work.
