Policy for specific users and execution frequency

[marcusbjerknes]

Hi,

In Self Service, I want to publish a licensed application for specific users to be able to install, but only to one specific computer. Same users should also be able to reinstall the app on the same computer.

How should I put this together using scope and execution frequency? Is this possible at all?

Hope you understand what I'm trying to achieve here...

[Look]

Put the computer in scope/targets, put the user scope/limitations.
Make sure you don't have any triggers set.
Have the policy available in Self Service.
Set the frequency to once or ongoing depending on whether you allow reinstalls.

This will make the policy only available to that specific user on that specific computer and only through Self Service.

Hi,

and thanks for a quick response. Problem is I only see Network Segments and iBeacons under Scope/Limitations for the policy. Am I missing something here?

Oh, I just took another peek, and I found a setting under Options/General/Client-Side Limitations, namely "limit to JSS-assigned user". Would that be it?

Sorry for the slow response, you will only get the user based restrictions if you have "Show in Self Service" or a "Login" trigger enabled as these are the only events that the jamf binary recognises the user in.
So set self Service first then look at the restrictions.

Thanks for all the help! I have it working now.
