Jamf Pro

To configure AutoPkgr to into Jamf Pro with JamfUploader, follow these steps:

1. Create a static computer group in Jamf Pro called Testing. Add one or more test computers to the group.

2. Create an account in Jamf Pro with Create, Read, and Update access to the following objects:

   • Jamf Pro Server Objects:
   • Categories
   • Dock Items
   • Computer Extension Attributes
   • File Share Distribution Points (only needs Read access)
   • Packages
   • Patch Management Software Titles
   • Patch Policies
   • Policies
   • Scripts
   • Smart Computer Groups
   • Static Computer Groups
   • Jamf Pro Server Settings:
   • Cloud Distribution Point (only needs "Read")

3. Open AutoPkgr and go to the Integrations tab.

4. Click the Install JamfUploader button.

5. Click on Configure JamfUploader.

6. Enter your Jamf Pro URL, API username, and API password.

7. For Jamf Cloud, add the CDP distribution point. If using a local distribution point, enter the read/write password for each distribution point.

8. Click Save and Close. AutoPkgr 1.6.1 removes the Connect button from the integration as it is deprecated and no longer necessary. Simply select Save and Close to save your URL, credentials, and CDP to start autopkg-ing with JamfUploader!

9. Friendly PSA for AutoPkgr and Jamf Pro v11.5 and above: You do not need to enable basic authentication in Jamf Pro in order for AutoPkgr to work with JamfUploader. In the JamfUploader Integration pane, just click Save and Close. JamfUploader still works with AutoPkgr in Jamf Pro v11.5 and above. This has been tested and still works as expected.

10. If you have SSO configured with an IdP in Jamf Pro, and you are prompted to redirect to an IdP-suggested redirect URL, simply select Ignore. Even if you have SSO configured in Jamf Pro, all you need is your base Jamf Pro URL, e.g. https://*.jamfcloud.com.

You'll also want to make sure you have a few .jamf recipes selected. AutoPkgr will automatically add the "official" grahampugh-recipes repo so you'll have a few to choose from right away.

When a .jamf recipe runs, the package is uploaded to your distribution points. Due to the fact that JamfUploader is so modular, a .jamf recipe may also do many other things such as update or create a Category, Dock Item, Computer Extension Attribute, Patch Management Software Title (update only), Patch Policy, Script, Smart Computer Group, Static Computer Group, and much more! The functionality depends entirely on the recipe you use, and which JamfUploader processors the recipe contains.

For more information about JamfUploader processors, please review the JamfUploader Wiki.

Templates
