Wifi and Configuration Profiles auto-join

[malonso]

So I have a provisioning sequence that happens to all mac enrolled via DEP. The issue is once the configuration profiles that installs the WiFi 802.1X certificate is also set to auto-join and it breaks the continuation of the installation of the reset of the applications. I was wondering if any one has any suggestion that could assist me. I need to auto-join at some point to the WiFi network. Thanks

Yup i've run into a similar issue especially on device we are re-enrolling that have existing JAMF computer records. JAMF is applying configuration profiles based on the old inventory data of the device, so even though i have the 802.1X profile scoped to smart group so it doesn't occur during enrolment it still gets applied. The funny thing is we don't see this is a more heavily loaded JAMF instance due to the performance of the platform.

I found a workflow that works! extension attributes can be cleared at re-enrolment, i excluded all devices which had the specific attribute as blank. This bought enough time for that first recon to run and the correct scoping to apply!
