A bundle identifier for the app (located in the PLIST file for the app)
An archived app file (.ipa) or the URL where the app is hosted on a web server
Note:
If you are hosting the app from a web server, the MIME type for the archived app file must be /application/octet-stream
In Jamf Pro, click Devices in the sidebar.
Click Mobile Device Apps in the sidebar.
Click New.
Select In-house app and click Next.
Use the General pane to configure settings for the app, including the distribution method and hosting location.
If you choose "Distribution Points" or "jamfsoftware database" from the Hosting Location pop-up menu, be sure to upload the archived app file.
Note:
You can require a mobile device to have a tethered network connection to download the app. A tethered network connection requires a computer with macOS 10.12.4 or later, and must be connected to the Internet via Ethernet and have Wi-Fi turned off. Portable computers must be plugged in to a power source because the tethered caching service prevents computers from going to sleep. Select the Require tethered network connection for app installation checkbox. This checkbox is only displayed if "Install Automatically/Prompt Users to Install" is chosen in the Distribution Method pop-up menu. App updates will not require tethering; this setting is for initial installations of an app only.
Click the Scope tab and configure the scope of the app.
(Optional) (iOS and iPadOS only) Click the Self Service tab and configure the way the app is displayed in Self Service.
You can customize the text displayed in the description for the app in Self Service by using Markdown in the Description field. For information about Markdown, see the Using Markdown to Format Text article.
Note:
The Self Service tab is only displayed if "Make Available in Self Service" is chosen in the Distribution Method pop-up menu.
(Optional) Click the App Configuration tab and configure the preferences as needed.
Note:
The App Configuration tab is only displayed if the Make App Managed when possible checkbox is selected.
For more information or to generate a managed app configuration, see the AppConfig Generator utility from Jamf.
Click Save .
The app is distributed the next time mobile devices in the scope check in with Jamf Pro. If users were added as targets to the scope, the app is distributed to the devices those users are assigned to the next time the devices check in with Jamf Pro.
