You can add a package to your distribution point and Jamf Pro using one of the following methods:
  • Direct upload

    If you have a cloud distribution point configured as your principal distribution point, you can upload the package directly to Jamf Pro. This method adds the package to the principal distribution point and Jamf Pro. You can then add the package to other distribution points if needed. For more information, see Uploading a Package to Jamf Pro.

  • Manual uploadIf you do not have a cloud distribution point configured as your principal distribution point (e.g., you have a file share distribution point), you can manually upload the package to your distribution point and create a matching package record in Jamf Pro. This method involves manually copying the package to the distribution point and then entering information about the package in Jamf Pro. For more information, see Manually Adding a Package to a Distribution Point and Jamf Pro.
Note:

On computers with macOS 10.15 or later that do not have an MDM profile, you must use an HTTP, HTTPS, or cloud distribution point to install packages.
