Hi y'all,
We are trying to deploy the HP printer app that is necessary for connecting and using our HP printers on our new Macs. However, we don't allow App Store access to our devices. For the most part that hasn't been an issue but it looks like HP's app is only downloadable through the App Store. Is there a way through this? I don't think there's a workaround that lets you download the app from HP itself etc , but maybe there's a way to deploy it through the Mac Apps etc that gets it from the App Store but doesn't require a login to it?

can you use the built in Mac Apps functionality to deploy it using a VPP license? The app comes from the Apple App Store, but it uses your JAMF vpp account to deploy it so no end user account is needed to download it from the App Store

I did have it deployed just in case but so far none of our Mac app store app deployments have gone through , is there something obvious I might be missing?

make sure you have the "assign content purchased in volume" box on the Managed Distribution tab of your deployment. This will pull the amount of licenses you have assigned from Business Manager/VPP and assign them as users consume them.

I tried that but still no dice :( Anything else I might be doing wrong here ?
