Airdrop Ventura

[tdenton]

Afternoon Jamf nation

Has anyone been able successfully disable Airdrop/handoff  in Ventura.

I have been having search on here and can't find anything that works.

I have tried few custom config profiles but just can't get them to work even after a restart.

Does anyone have workable config profile they can share?

Thanks

@tdenton Have you disabled AirDrop in both the Media and Sharing Services sections of the Restrictions payload of a Configuration Profile? That should work but if not you could try setting up a firewall rule to block traffic to the sharingd process. That would prevent AirDrop from working, but will also disable some other features like Handoff.

[tdenton]

Yeah I have that @sdagley 

Will look into firewall rule though thanks

the restrictions payload seems to work fine in our org.

[tdenton]

Are you on jamf cloud by any chance?

Where moving mid April

[AtillaTheC]

yes I am. in the configuration profile payload for restrictions there is a toggle box that seems to do the trick to disable it. Its in the Media section

[tdenton]

@AtillaTheC Yep I have that doesn't seem to be disabling the preference pain though

[tdenton]

Do you have jamf cloud by any chance?

[tdenton]

thats what Im using i think this is on premise thing, see what jamf cloud brings I guess 

[sdagley]

@tdenton The Restrictions payload in a Configuration Profile should work on-prem or via Jamf Cloud unless your on-prem JSS isn't set up so Macs not connected to your org's network can be managed (which may be why you're moving to Jamf Cloud)

[tdenton]

Thanks were mainly moving to jamf cloud so we can manage our offsite devices as currently we cant reach these devices with our current Jamf setup

[AtillaTheC]

What version of Jamf is your on-prem using? May not have the right preferences in those payloads for ventura. 

[tdenton]

10.43.1

@AtillaTheC  moving to latest version on Monday see what that brings thanks.
