Bluebook Exams installer package

Hi- does anyone have a source for the Bluebook Exams installer package?  I can only seem to get it from the App store, and trying to build a package using Composer constantly fails.  (Building works, but the package doesn't work)

Have to deploy to a student testing lab...

 

Thanks!

I'm not familiar with this app, but is there a reason you're trying to repackage it instead of pushing it directly to computers using Mac Apps?

Packaging a Mac AppStore app with Composer or any packing tool will fail 100% of the time. Apple has safeguards to prevent that kind of shenanigans from getting around the App Licensing, or DRM.

As @talkingmoose said, you really need to be deploying this Mac App from Jamf.

Thanks all.  This is a free app for scholastic testing.  Unfortunately for some reason pushing via Mac Apps in Jamf Pro just isn't working.  I wanted to create a policy with an installer package...

What happens when you try to install this app via Mac App Store?

It works if I log into the App store on each machine and install manually. I was just hoping to utilize Jamf to push the software rather than have to do it individually on every Mac.  For some reason it isn't working via Mac Apps in Jamf.

Check that you have setup your Mac App Store installs with everything that is needed. This article from Jamf details all the steps. You should not need to login to the App Store. Jamf Pro will handle that. https://learn.jamf.com/en-US/bundle/jamf-pro-documentation-11.15.0/page/Apps_Purchased_in_Volume.htm...
