  • Is there a way to have different Jamf Enrollment Profiles?
    1 project | /r/jamf | 17 Apr 2023
    If they are running macOS 11+ and they are admins (which i assume they are) i would get them enrolled, and make a swiftDialog - https://github.com/bartreardon/swiftDialog prompt that is pushed repeatedly until they install it. Track who has not yet installed it and pester their managers if they dont, but this will require buy in at every level or they will just ignore you. good luck.

    It still works but you may find better options using Swift Dialog going forward - Dan Snelson has been doing quite a bit with it.

    I was making a lot of my packages with Composer, so very similar. I’m currently looking into updating my Installomator scripts to start leveraging the new swiftDialog integration - looks very clean.
