Software Update Settings Declaration Configuration
The Software Update settings declarative configuration is now available in Jamf Pro blueprints. This component allows you to control software update management by:
Defining which types of users have permissions to perform updates
Customizing how updates are presented to users
Controlling enrollment into beta programs
Setting deferral periods for different types of updates
Managing Rapid Security Response installations and rollbacks
The Software Update settings component is available for computers with macOS 15.0 or later and mobile devices with iOS 18.0, iPadOS 18.0, and tvOS 18.4 or later. Not every setting is available for each OS type. Additionally, if you have existing configuration profiles with equivalent settings, some settings configured in the blueprint will override those existing settings. For more information, see Blueprints Components Reference.
