Hi All, I'm working on a solution where customer managing MacBooks using Jamf Pro and having Zendesk ticketing tool. Upon reviewing the environment, found that traditional way of software request or installation is happening. I would like to understand that is that possible that can we integrate Jamf self-service with Zendesk, so that whenever user need of an application then user can request from self-service, and an application requires an approval Zendesk will raise a request on behalf of user and forward to concern member. If approval is not required, then application gets installed automatically from Jamf self-service.

We've been seeing a weird issue with some of our macbooks that have been sitting on our shelves for a while. These macbooks have been sitting for a couple months now, when we turn them on, go through the basic setup steps country region keyboard wifi. We get to the remote management screen just fine, enter our company creds, sometimes we get to our entraID signin page (jamf connect), or it'l go into a bootloop. Or sometimes we get to the desktop but the macbook becomes an unmanaged device and self service doesnt install and no ability to run any sudo jamf commands as jamf cant be found. (so the MDM doesnt fully install?)To resolve this we have remove our mdm and reinstall the mdm, but sometimes its easier to reimage the macbook as we have the MDM as nonremovable.Any else having this issue?
We are doing a POC for Linewize and running into some issues with access to the VPN System Preference Pane. Test user is a local administrator, as will the production users, no getting around that. I can restrict access to the network preference pane: but then VPN & Filters pane is still available I don't see anywhere that I can restrict the VPN & Filters pane, am I missing something?Ideally I would love to be able to leave access to Network open and restrict VPN & Filters in 2 locations:

All our ipads are added to Apple School manager and are enrolled in Jamf School.Activation lock is enabled on all ipads: some with a personal icloud account from a user, some with settings in the deployment profile.Now we want to add our M1, M2... macs and macbooks.But, i dont see an option to let macbooks enable the activation lock when setting up with a deployment profile.Also if a user enables activation lock with a personal icloud account, i don't see a bypass code in the details of my device in jamf school.Are macs not officially supported in 'Jamf School'? Are this Jamf pro features? Thanks for the information
we’ve been experiencing several persistent issues in our Jamf Cloud instance since mid-March, and unfortunately, they still haven’t been resolved — even after the recent Jamf Pro Cloud upgrade. 1. Missing Log Details in All Policies Across all policies, we are currently unable to access detailed logs — the log entries are visible, but the “Details” links are greyed out or unclickable.This is a major issue for us, as we rely heavily on these logs for remote troubleshooting and support.The issue occurs consistently in Edge and Firefox, and Safari is not an option in our environment. 2. Configuration Profile Scope Cannot Be Modified We’re also facing a separate issue with one specific configuration profile: we are unable to change its scope.We’re aware that the profile might be corrupted — but even if that’s the case, it doesn’t explain why log details are inaccessible across all policies. This is especially
Does anyone know what plist controls Zoom to auto-boot at login? It seems like it may be more of an Apple plist than Zoom.
Hi everyone, the first renewal of the radius cert is due in a month and I am not confident on how to do this without disconnecting all of our 250+ clients. I believe I have perhaps made mistakes regarding best practices. However, I had no other choice since all certs and network payloads needed to be in one profile. The Jamf Profile used to deploy the 802.1x auth contains: the RADIUS cert the CA cert the info about which cert template to use to issue a cert for any given machine the wired and wireless network configuration settings with the certificates used to connect. All certs are issued via the ADCS server to be able to renew automatically since MacOS and IOS would not be able to do this if done without it. As far as I understood it, it had to be done this way, (all in one approach) to be able to select the cert to use for any given network connection that the conf-profile is controlling. However, once I would re-redeploy this conf-profile, the clients would lose the connection
Hello All, I want to deploy updates to Ipads in non business hours probably between 1-4 AM, how can i achieve that. I am new to JAMF Thanks in advance
Hello Everybody, Our company has been using an Automatic Proxy Configuration with a proxy.pac URL on all Mac devices for about a year. Previously, we deployed this setting once via a script. Last week, we distributed the same configuration via a configuration profile to all devices. However, after this change, users started experiencing connection drop issues in Teams and Outlook. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Also, is deploying a proxy.pac URL via a configuration profile a recommended approach?

I have read that iPads wont do automatic updates as long as they are in Single App mode. Can someone confirm this? We will hold test at university with those and it would be really bad, if an iPad started an OS Update during the test by some mistake. But if that is true it would not be an issue, as they are all in SAM.

Hi there, I’m wondering if it’s possible to configure Jamf Protect to alert on all activities related to Jamf Connect Privilege Elevation. If not directly supported, how do you typically monitor these events using Jamf Protect? Thanks in advance!
Web Clips were configured in profiles, but no IPads were getting the Webclips. when I went into the webclips profile, it shows that the iPad has this installed. After going through a thread, I found that the App layout was configured without webclips, which prevented them from appearing. Ok, I configured the webclips part of the App Layout and moved the apps to the home screen. Checked the Ipad and they shown up but without Icon Images even though they was added. I went back into the Profile Web clips and removed the clips from there. Web back to the App Layout profile > Web clips and remove them. Readded them. i now have the clips but no icon images. Has anyone else had this.
Hello all, after some testing and profile creation I have started deploying Apple TVs (4K 3rd Gen - no USB-C) in my school district [28 in testing phase]. As we deployed to our schools we ran into a problem where an Apple TV decided to stop communicating with our onPrem appliance (out of 12 deployed). The device seems to work properly regarding AirPlay use, code is issued and staff can cast to it. We setup ALL apple tvs to "Conference mode" which doesnt allow access to anything, including settings [no way to reset that way] Interwebs just mentions that we are out of luck and need to call Apple support in order to reset the device. So, now we we have a door stopper that can't be reset unless Apple support gets involved. Does anyone have tips or tricks on how the apple tvs can be reset without Apple support? Maybe someone had this issue and has some information. All other school sites will follow deployment and I will hate for this issue to happen to our apple tvs at some point and the o
