XIP file - Anyone have any success with uploading and distributing XCode 8's latest file type?

[Bernard_Huang]

Hi all,

I just noticed that XCode 8 and XCode 8.1 comes in xip file format. Anyone had any success with loading these to Casper Admin? Or a more direct question, anyone have any issues with these file format?

We're using Casper JSS 9.96 (latest).

Just realised XCode 8.1 is still in beta. Sorry if I alarmed anyone unnecessarily.
Still, same question. how does Casper respond to XIP files?

Currently it doesn't. This is Apple's new compressed file format (think a .zip variant but with digital signatures to verify where it came from) (Thank you XcodeGhost :( )

For Xcode 8, use the App Store Capture Method or VPP.

That obviously doesn't help you with 8.1 beta, but...

This may help with your deployment:
