Managing third-party macOS software updates using the patch policy workflow in Jamf Pro involves the following steps:

  1. Configuring a Patch Management software title.

  2. Associating a package to a definition in the Patch Management software title.

  3. Creating a patch policy to automatically update the software title to the chosen version (the definition the package was associated to).

Important:

The Patch Management workflow in Jamf Pro cannot be used to update macOS. For more information on updating macOS, see the Deploying macOS Upgades and Updates with Jamf Pro 10.34.0 or later technical paper.
